Sometimes you cannot win. Then you do something else. As I said before, most of these classes are small. They could be held in peoples homes, many of them.
I have heard that the Genealogy Courses at the LLC were quite big.

And for this matter you just have to change the hearts and minds of these plaintiffs to accept reasonable accommodation by the Villages' developers. Harder said than done.

It will take different groups around the US working together to change how the ADA is interpreted. That can be done; it just takes organization, commitment and stubbornness. That 60 minutes segment from last Sunday night certainly will help a great deal with it as would Facebook and people getting involved.
