To @stephenmcelroy and our other PD Members on Connect.
Here is a link to a series of YouTube videos with short exercise programs for people with PD, https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=parkinson%27s+exercise+videos. The video on hand exercises is especially good.
Also, Tai Chi is especially helpful for me, as well as PD Dance programs (done seated).
Some folks in our group have also talked about Pedaling for Parkinson's offered by YMCAs throughout the country, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXC4yCnw8YU
Also Boxing for PD is gaining in popularity, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfDHGbuvqiw

I plan to join the Tai Chi program at our Senior Center. Currently I do some low impact training for some muscle groups, and some isometrics as well as some stretching particularly for posture improvement that a past PT sessions offered.
