Why should you want to play bridge?
Here are four really good reasons.
- Bridge requires thinking, as well as problem-solving skills, concentration, and planning to gain a good score. Unlike a lot of other card games, bridge is a game of both defense and offense. No longer do you have to complain about "never getting good cards" since your competition is defending with the same cards! That is what makes the game fun.
- As we get older, there is cognitive decline which is different in every person but it happens. Bridge keeps your brain active and stimulated and, when we play with others, the social aspects of the game keep different parts of your brain working whether taking classes or playing. If you want to make more friends, bridge is a game for you.
- Bridge is good for our immune systems. Studies have shown that the area of your brain that is used and stimulated while playing bridge is the same area of the brain that is suspected to stimulate the immune system.
- Unlike so many physical games, bridge is a lifelong game. While you can learn the basics quite easily, mastering the game takes a long time. This is why so many people play well into their 80s and 90s.
To learn bridge and play this game for a lifetime, we're looking for students who have a genuine interest and time for about 6 basic bridge lessons spread over 2 months.
