Established in 2013 and based on the internationally recognised Dance for PD® program, Queensland Ballet’s Dance for Parkinson’s program helps participants reconnect with their power and grace in classes that focus on fitness, fun and creativity. These social classes concentrate on possibility, rather than limitations, as participants explore different movement patterns and energies. Research studies have found that Dance for Parkinson’s classes affect people living with Parkinson’s in valuable ways – including physical, emotional, social and cognitive benefits.
