Join physiotherapist, Shelly Yu, for an exercise series focused on hand and dexterity challenges associated with Parkinson's Disease. Exercises in this series will target upper extremity movement, hand dexterity, grip strength, hand-finger coordination and overall arm function. As this is a hand and dexterity class, all exercises will be done in sitting- ideally in a chair without arm rests. Equipment to prepare for the exercise series include:

-A chair without arm rests to sit in

-A tea towel/ kitchen towel

-A small cushion/pillow

We welcome all individuals with Parkinson's to this webinar as well as their spouses and/ or care partners/caregivers, as they may benefit from learning more about the disease to assist in supporting their loved one.
