Hello Nectar of the Neurons Community,
parkinsonsnewstoday.com came out with a great article highlighting different types of exercise that are good for people with Parkinson's Disease. Check out "12 Types of Exercise Suitable for Parkinson's Disease Patients." Take away points: - The bottom line is that ALL exercise is great and suitable, but the higher the intensity, the more benefit. - It is critical to include variety. Do some on your own, some as a group, some with equipment, some without. - Find something that you can do safely and that challenges you. - Places like a YMCA have many great group classes for all levels. Post some pictures below with a description to show us what you enjoy. Maybe you'll inspire someone else to do something new!

Hello Nectar of the Neurons Community,
We've been doing a lot of research looking for other good resources for our community. The Parkinson's Foundation has been doing a lot of work trying to provide solid information, especially for the newly diagnosed as it can be extremely overwhelming. They have created a variety of great packets, booklets, and resources for you. We highly recommend checking them out.
