This class offers a supportive space to explore the artistry of dance, ranging across the styles of ballet, jazz, modern, tap, and improvisation. In this class, we connect the mind to movement, inviting expression and exploration in where it may not have been before: moving the body in conjunction with others and with music, evoking creativity and connection. This program was built so everyone can experience the joy and freedom of dance, no matter age, status, or ability.
The class focuses heavily on repetition, direct movement, and stability while exploring dance genres. The first half of class takes place seated, while the second half of class participants have the choice to stand; all movement has a seated demonstration, so everyone is able to participate the entire time.
All are welcome, including care partners, family and friends – even if you do not have Parkinson’s, this class is helpful for anyone, including people with limited mobility!
