I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease (PD) about ten years ago. One of the first things I discovered was that exercise helped slow both the physical, cognitive and other symptoms of this progressive neurological disease. I was always active and I had a new reason to continue exercise. I soon discovered that there were few exercise classes for PD sufferers. I helped start a dance class specifically for PD and continued looking for classes that would help PD sufferers.
Now ten years later, I am happy to say that there are many more options to choose from. There are dance classes, exercise classes, boxing, yoga and others. In the last few weeks I put together a list of PD-oriented exercise classes in San Francisco. I hope this list will be distributed to PD sufferers and that it will help them combatting this disease.
The Exercise for PD list is attached.
