The Charm of Folk Music
Folk music, often seen as the soulful echo of our culture’s heart and history, carries the stories and emotions of the people within its melodies and lyrics. Originating from the times when history was oral, folk music has evolved but always maintained its core identity as the music of the masses. Baby Boomers grew up with icons, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, and Joni Mitchell who used their music to influence social change. Their songs became anthems for peace, equality, and justice, echoing beyond their musical notes into the hearts of a generation clamoring for change. Our experts will explore in this area of the site where folk music effected how many of our generation think and feel today.
Today, folk music’s influence extends into popular media, enhancing narratives in films and TV shows with its authentic and poignant soundtracks. Its rustic charm is also a popular choice for advertising, connecting brands with authenticity and tradition. Folk music remains a vital part of the world’s musical landscape, continuously evolving while staying true to its roots. It tells the story of humanity, one song at a time, bridging the past with the present, and inviting everyone to partake in its timeless narrative.

By now you know that I gravitate towards activities a bit off the mainstream–like hunting Pythons in Florida and hiking with alpacas. And exercise is no different. You are never going to find me at a gym grinding it out on an elliptical. And the idea of a “boot camp” makes my blood run cold. Isn’t life hard enough? At this age, I want things to be healthy and fun. That’s why we’re going to talk about rebounders (mini trampolines). I’ve used my rebounder to train for the Senior tennis Games and my walk on the Camino in Spain. It’s hard not to enjoy jumping up and down to your fa…
