Classes begin seated, later moving to standing and travelling exercises; adaptations are offered throughout to suit different individuals. Refreshments are provided after the session.
Our Movement for Memory classes are aimed at those who have memory loss or cognitive impairment, and are perfect for those with Parkinson's, Dementia or MS. We focus on dance-based routines and exercises to improve strength, balance mobility and co-ordination.
