Dance for Parkinson’s, Bend

Dance for Parkinson’s classes foster a safe and creative environment for participants and their friends, family, and caregivers. Through an engaging approach, students learn to enhance their aesthetic awareness and grace while addressing such PD-specific concerns as balance, flexibility, coordination, gait and depression. Teaching artists introduce movement from modern dance, musical theater, ballet, folk dance, tap, improvisation, and choreography. These classes also feature live musical accompaniment.

The first half of the class is seated, then we progress to standing with the aid of chairs and eventually work our way across the floor. However, some individuals remain seated for the entire class. Volunteers are also available to assist with every class.
