A fun fact to know about me: I love music and dance. Because of a number of health problems traditional dancing isn't the easiest for me, but I found a Parkinson's Dance class that does all of dance moves while seated and they use the oldies music, so we can sing-a-long as well. I'm also part of a therapy choir where folks with brain injuries and neurological problems sing, "for the health of it." We have many members who have difficulty speaking but music and singing override those barriers and they can "let their voices be heard."

@hopeful33250 I love that quote, Yogi had some good ones for sure.
I think it's great that you have a dance class that is geared to people with Parkinson's. We are so fortunate to live in a time where there are so many more things available than were a generation ago.
