Kenko Wellness Lounge Outreach Programs

The Kenko Wellness Lounge is now open – come drop in for classes!

Experiences make the differences – At Robert Nimi Nikkei Home, we provide resident and community-based programs that engage seniors on a social, educational, and communal level.

Our Lounge provides a place for community members to come and relax, stay active, and learn. Our programs serve seniors with a variety of needs and levels of independence.

All activity materials for the program will be provided, but you will need to prepare your own internet and communication equipment to use Zoom for the hybrid programs. Everyone is welcome to participate!

Located at:
6680 Southoaks Crescent, Burnaby, BC V5E 4N3
