It does not matter if you can walk or need aids such as a walker or wheelchair. If you wish, you can do all exercises on a chair. We all start the dance in a seated position anyway. It is especially for people with Parkinson(ism), MS, ADCA, CVA or for example rheumatism.
The most important thing is dancing together. After all, dancing is so much more than just moving. Through imagination and the rhythm of the music, moving becomes so much easier to do. Moreover, dancing with a group or with a partner gives a feeling of togetherness and extra energy. Everyone can participate to their own ability. No one is perfect; everyone is unique. We go 'loose' to the rhythm of the music.
These are the ingredients to experience the joy of movement and what it can do to you. Good for your condition, coordination, balance, flexibility, strength, posture and balance. By dancing you are stimulated in a different way, extra energy is released and you forget for a moment the daily challenges you have to deal with. Everyone can participate, regardless of age and mobility. Experience is not necessary, but is allowed.
The dancing is supervised by a dance instructor from Dance Park and a hostess.
Weekly dancing on Tuesdays from 2-15 p.m., followed by coffee/tea
