This exercise program is based on the John Argue book “Parkinson’s Disease & the Art of Moving” to: increase flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination, improve communication, voice power and speech clarity. Drawing from yoga, tai chi, free-dancing and laughter yoga, this seated exercise program focuses on doing movements with ease, moving intentionally and slow completion of movements one at a time. It is great for those concerned with balance, needing the support of a chair, or simply hoping to add to an existing exercise program.

Always check with your physician before starting any exercise program.
