Specialty Programming
Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s Pathway programming is a comprehensive resource to help participants manage symptoms, improve functional mobility, and maintain confidence. By combining physical exercise with social engagement and health education, the program addresses Parkinson’s unique challenges in the supportive, upbeat environment of Active Generations.
Our programming is curated to target clinical symptoms of the disease, such as bradykinesia (slowness of movement), vocal strength, and neuroplasticity. At the core of the Pathway’s physical programming is the MDT Education Solutions framework. Developed by experts in physical therapy and research, this evidence-based system is specifically designed to target the neurological challenges of Parkinson’s.
Strength Training for Parkinson’s
Utilizing the MDT framework, these sessions focus on building the stability, agility, and power necessary for daily independence. This class is $5 for Active Generations Members or $10 for a non-member day pass. Spouses and caregivers are encouraged to join!
- Main Campus: Mondays (2 – 2:45 pm) and Fridays (10 – 10:45 am)
- East Campus: Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays (11 – 11:45 am)
Creative & Social Engagement Community connection and cognitive stimulation are essential pillars of the Pathway, targeting the whole person rather than just the diagnosis. These activities are provided at no cost for members:
