Lively warm-up music is followed by Pilates mat work, strengthening exercise and intensive co-ordination and balance tasks adapted to the needs, ability and limitations of each participant.
Melanie’s classes have developed into a popular blend of exercises to target the key areas for those affected by Parkinson’s: agility, balance, movement, strength and co-ordination.
There is often a relaxation or reflective discussion session at the end to take away the successes from the class that day.
Melanie is also an accredited PD Warrior.
