Where do you exercise? Is there a place you can take classes specific for people with Parkinson’s? Is it convenient? I know of only a handful of cities where there is a one stop fits all approach to PD wellness. Most are created and managed by someone stepping up and doing the work to make it happen for their community and beyond.
I am excited to highlight some of these magical places where people with Parkinson’s take classes designed for their needs, provide social support, and community. I am thrilled to bring. you this first magical place. It is in the greater the Austin, TX area and on their YouTube chamnnel. Power For Parkinson’s was founded by two women, Dr. Nina Mosier and Susan Stahl. They both had fathers with Parkinson’s and saw a need, so they found a way to provide research-based exercises while offering them for FREE. With nine locations, the classes are very accessible. Add in the YouTube channell with available streaming and on demand videos all for free, well that is magical.
After listening to my guest today, you are going to want to have a similar opportunity in your area as well. Listen on.
