“The best Friday afternoons ever – always different, always fun and a feeling of relaxation as well as hard work of course. Laughter and happy times“ - Parkinson's Dancers

Established in 2012, our weekly fun Friday Parkinson’s Dance class supports those living with Parkinson’s to enjoy the social, fun and creative benefits of dance.

Classes are based on the Parkinson’s Dance Science approach, co-founded by Neuro-physiotherapist Dr Sophia Hulbert and dance artist Aimee Hobbs, with support from Pavilion Dance. It combines physiotherapeutic effect, research evidence and the artistic experience of dance to address Parkinson’s symptoms in a fun, social and creative way.

This fundraising page supports all events where we raise funds to help continue to deliver Parkinson's Dance classes and support Parkinson's Dance Science to evolve.
