Princeton Dance for Parkinson


In January 2011, DanceVision partnered with The Parkinson Alliance, and the Dance for PD organization-founded by Mark Morris and David Leventhal to host a free Master Class for persons with Parkinson's disease. The class empowers those afflicted with Parkinson's disease, their partners, their caregivers, and friends to enjoy movement, music and dance. This was the first class of its kind in New Jersey, and DanceVision has made Princeton Dance for Parkinson a recurring event.


The Parkinson Alliance has agreed to match contributions to DanceVision that are earmarked specifically for PDP classes as part of their support to see this program continue for the community.
 

In January 2011, the first  in NJ  Master Class on Dance for PD® was offered, and now in 2012, barely a year later  DanceVision and The Parkinson Alliance are thrilled to announce the 4th  6- week class series of Princeton Dance for Parkinson for 6 Wednesdays starting January 18 – February 22, 2012 @ 1-2:15 pm. The class empowers those afflicted with Parkinson's disease, their partners, their caregivers, and friends to enjoy movement, music and dance. Each class has 2 teachers and a live pianist to accompany the class.  There are only 100 dance teachers in U.S. who have been trained by the Mark Morris Dance Group Dance for PD® program and are actively leading classes. DanceVision is proud to have 3!!!  Last August 2011, Anne Levine, a writer for a local paper, came to watch and participate in the class and wrote a lovely article for Town Topics. http://towntopics.com/aug0311/other4.php
