Dance for Parkinson's Class
There has been early enthusiasm for the Dance for Parkinson’s class we’re now offering on Tuesday morning. Dance movements have been shown to be effective with respect to Parkinson’s. Dance is a stimulating activity that connects mind and body similar to our current boxing program.

To finish off the week, we have added a Saturday Tai Chi class. Liana Olson, a Senior Trainer at Tai Chi for Health Institute is leading these classes. Tai Chi concentrates on smooth, flowing movement that has shown improvement in walking ability, posture, and balance for people with Parkinson’s.
