SHELTON - Residents at Wesley Heights, an independent and assisted-living community at 580 Long Hill Ave., enjoy a wide range of health and wellness activities and programs.

One program that has become a favorite is “Dance Around the World” with dancer, Gia Khalsa.

Residents sway to gentle strains of Hawaii, stomp their feet to American West tunes, replicate rhythmic drumming from Africa, and shimmy to exotic strains from the Middle East.

Through this program, residents keep fit through movement, learn about other cultures, and have fun with their peers in the process.
