Event Navigation
Check out all the amazing opportunities to exercise, learn, explore, and build community online!
This page is updated only occasionally as our core operations have returned to our building. The page is divided by geography with local Ann Arbor listings first, then other JCC’s, and finally anywhere.
Many options below will utilize an online sharing service called Zoom. If you’re unfamiliar with Zoom, check out this tutorial on how to use it.
There are many opportunities to connect online, try something new, and be in community with each other while staying safely apart. Take a look below.

If you are predisposed to a medical condition that may be worsened by physical exercise, please do not start any of these fitness programs. Do not start a fitness program if your physician or health care provider advises against it. If you experience faintness, dizziness, pain or shortness of breath at any time while exercising you should stop immediately. If you think you are having a medical or health emergency, call your health care professional, or 911, immediately.
