I think most of us experience this.  In the main, I have found it helpful to join a to just join in a weekly group activity and try to meet friends that way.  It is hard going sometimes, but if you keep at it, you might find a potential person who wants a friend too.

Exactly how I look at it, @SusanG75864 .

Excited about the challenge and it is coming at a good time... It has been difficult to maintain my friendships while caring for my 90 year old father and at the same time experiencing my only child (now high school graduate) leaving home.

Hey cool!  Glad you liked it.  it’s a beautiful way to exercise.

We had it offered at our gym but not enough people attended to sustain it.  I think a good instructor was key to it succeeding, and don’t think we had a good one who clicked with us.

    I’m used to a more fast paced intense workout, so for me, I had a hard time slowing myself down, lol!  But I gave it a few tries.  Definitely a great way to connect with others who enjoy it.  Quite relaxing and peaceful movements.
