Strength in Motion
These sessions will involve elements of chair-based yoga, weights, mobility practice as well as the use of resistance bands for stretching and strengthening muscles. This session will be open anyone with Parkinson's within the earlier to mid stages as it can be adapted to the participants needs. Exercises can be adjusted with a standing or seated variation. Our goal is to support people with Parkinson’s in becoming and staying active, as well as to provide significant benefits to those who are already active by increasing their levels of physical activity. Partners/ carers are welcome to join!
