1/28 Week One: Orientation 

Happy Week One Brain Fitness Basics Lifelong Learners

Dear Brain Fitness Enthusiasts,

we are thrilled to welcome you to the Brain Fitness Basics Spring 2024 class!


Each Week  

Your lessons will be posted on our BASICS class website weekly. Links to lessons and the website will be provided in a weekly email, but you can access the weekly e-mails at any time by going to bfclass.com under the Weekly Emails.  

This Week  

This week you will have one option to attend the orientation lesson, since Thursday, February 1st is our first Basics class. Tuesday attendees, join us on Thursday for the start of week one. See you there! We highly recommend you attend the orientation sessions on Zoom this coming week to learn how to navigate our class website and the BrainHQ exercises (Zoom information and links below). All these features will be demonstrated for you at orientation.    

BrainHQ  

BrainHQ is a powerful brain-training exercise program that is part of this class. We will create a BrainHQ license for you and you will be able to start the exercises right after orientation, where you will learn how to access the program. Your instructors will provide the BrainHQ password during orientation. Please note: if you are a repeating Basics student and had a BrainHQ license assigned to you in a previous Brain Fitness class, your password remains the same as it was when you first received it. 

Zoom Sessions and Links (this information also found in the welcome e-mail sent on 1/26)  

You will find everything about our Zoom sessions, including times, links to each session, and much more on our class website (bfclass.com) under the Zoom Classroom tab at the top.
