Pontio in Bangor are the new hub for National Dance Company Wales’ and English National Ballet’s free Dance For Parkinson’s workshops, to be held every Tuesday in March at 10am.
Dance has been proven to develop confidence and strength, whilst temporarily relieving some participants of symptoms in everyday life. Classes are creative and promote feelings of freedom from the physical and social constraints of having Parkinson’s.
Anyone living with Parkinson’s, their carers and anyone who works with people who have Parkinson’s is welcome to attend the workshops.
The classes are currently running digitally, through a programme called Zoom. Classes are 90 minutes long, and all you’ll need is a chair.
English National Ballet’s Dance for Parkinson’s programme has been running since 2008. We are proud to be part of the Dance for PD membership, to support Dance for Parkinson’s Partnership and People Dancing and to have an affiliation with Parkinson’s UK. ENB’s national Dance for Parkinson’s programme enjoys close links with Parkinson’s UK and the European Parkinson’s Disease Association EPDA.
