Dance for Parkinsons

Welcome to this series of dance workshops specifically tailored for persons with Parkinsons Disease. The tempo and movements are designed for the workshop participants in line with a method created by Mark Morris Dance Group in New York, USA. No previous dance experience is required.

The workshop consists of a physical dance part lasting approximately 75 mins, led by two of our trained dancers, and ends with a shared coffee break. You are very welcome to have a family member or companion joining you in the workshop. Bear in mind to wear clothes that are comfortable to move in.

Sing-up: Sign-up for the workshops via e-mail to dialog@skanesdansteater.se or by phone +46 (0)703-44 58 11.

Taking part in the workshops is completely free of charge and the coffee break is included.
