12 Minute "LOCOMOTION" Workout for Parkinson's Symptoms

12 Minute "LOCOMOTION" Workout for Parkinson's Symptoms
This fun workout was filmed for a special World Parkinson's Day celebration we held in Austin, Texas, on April 11th, 2024. We brought participants and caregivers together to experience a medley with 5 of our amazing PFP instructors. You can get a glimpse of what we do in person every day to prepare to film our TH-cam videos with our local Parkinson's community.
For this workout, we used a drumstick, but you can be creative at home. Try a soup spoon, spatula, a towel, umbrella or anything else you feel you can use safely. The prop will help you exaggerate your movement.
Enjoy!

Please pause the video between exercises if you feel the routine is too fast for you. We suggest that you never exercise alone. Power for Parkinson's is not responsible for any injuries or complications that may arise from this material.
