The City of Solana Beach, in partnership with Scripps, is offering a new class series: A Matter of Balance at La Colonia Community Center. A Matter of Balance is an 8-part class series that meets every Monday for 2 hours from 1:00pm – 3:00pm starting September 30, 2024 (there will be no class on November 11, in observance of Veteran’s Day).
