With the current stay-at-home measures in place, it can be difficult to find the means and motivation to exercise. There is an increased challenge to find appropriate forms of exercise for individuals who experience mobility limitations. Thanks to an ongoing collaboration between our Community Support Services and Dance DNA Studio, members of Yee Hong’s “I Can Dance” fitness program for individuals with Parkinson’s disease are keeping connected and active through online dance classes! Participants are grateful for the weekly dance sessions, and one participant happily shares that “It’s the next best thing! Gives me a reason not to wear pyjamas all day.”
