About
A dance workshop for persons with Parkinson's Disease.
Welcome to this series of seven dance workshops specifically tailored for persons with Parkinsons Disease.
The tempo and movements are designed for the workshop participants in line with a method created by Mark Morris Dance Group in New York, USA. No previous dance experience is required.
The workshop consists of a physical dance part lasting approximately 75 mins, led by two of our trained dancers, and ends with a shared coffee break. You are very welcome to have a family member or companion joining you in the workshop. Bear in mind to wear clothes that are comfortable to move in.
