Where music, movement and stories meet.

  • “It is so rewarding to see the effect music and dance have on us all, uplifting our spirits, bringing a sense of wellbeing and happiness into challenged bodies."

  • "When I was first diagnosed with Parkinson’s  and started going to your classes I found  they helped me get through those early days of turbulence and isolation. They offered creativity, community and a very positive approach to living with Parkinson’s."

  • “I was bowled over on my visit with Dance for Parkinson's, where I saw not only an unsurpassed professionalism and sensitivity, but also great care and energy. This project is inspirational! A tremendous benefit both to those who live with the condition, and those who help to look after them.”

We offer creative dance, music and movement sessions to promote the physical and mental health of older people with age-related health conditions.

  • “…our ballet class is the highlight of my week. Apart from being really good exercise it is also such fun and is joyful from start to finish. We are truly blessed to have two kind and gifted ballet teachers plus a brilliant pianist. We also have several dedicated helpers who are always at hand to help those with extra mobility difficulties. I am very grateful that we have been given this precious gift which makes me so happy. My sincere thanks for continuing to make this possible.”

  • “People with Parkinsons are encouraged to exercise and I do but the only form of exercise I really enjoy is Dance for Parkinsons. I don't worry too much what I look like, we are all in the same boat after all, and for an hour and a half I just forget about my problems and enjoy the wonderful movement and music. There is something so uplifting about moving in time to music. Our three instructors are all mega talented - we are so fortunate to have them.”
