Power with Parkinson's
Power with Parkinson's is a progressive Parkinson's specific exercise class offered at our Spanish Springs location and led by a certified Parkinson's exercise specialist. This class combines proven exercises, drills, breathing techniques, and more to grow stronger, improve balance, and fight PD symptoms. PLUS - we have a blast!
Every class is concluded with stretch, flexibility, and relaxation.
