Dance for Parkinson’s Summer Special
Now is the perfect opportunity to try a Dance for Parkinson’s class! We will be running three special workshops during the summer break, offering DfP dancers across the UK the opportunity to join us in person and/or online.
Workshops will be delivered by ENB Associate Dance Artists and Associate Musicians, alongside special guest artists. Each Summer Special session is unique and will deepen our artistic and creative skills whilst centring our bodies and minds. The two in-person workshops will take place at the Mulryan Centre for Dance in Canning Town, and the online workshop will take place on Zoom.
Places are limited, so please book early!
Dance for Parkinson’s is an evidence-based programme open to people in the UK living with Parkinson’s, their loved ones and carers. Learn more about this long-running and much loved programme, the ways in which it can support health and wellbeing, and contact details for the team should you wish to discuss any questions or needs.
