Classes
You are invited to join other Parkinsonians in fighting your PD. There is no fee to attend the classes. Speech training will help you keep your voice longer and exercise will help you reduce rigidity. Studies have shown that Alexander Technique and Tai Chi help with posture and balance.
All classes run continuously. You need not worry about coming in the middle. Spouses and helpers are invited as well.
