What we do

Run by National Dance Company Wales, Dance for Parkinson's classes are fun and informal.

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.

Who do we support

Our classes aim to improve mobility and speech in those living with Parkinson's through movement and vocal exercises accompanied by live music. Most people joining have no dance experience, and it really isn't needed to enjoy and benefit from the class.

Is there a charge to use this service?

Yes - Each class is £3.50 and includes a cup of tea and a biscuit.

Can anyone use this service?

Anyone with Parkinson's can attend. Partners and carers are more than welcome to join the classes, and encouraged to move, learn and sing too.

 Opening times

Classes run during term time.
