Description
Dancing with Parkinson's by Sara Houston explores the experience and value of dancing for people living with Parkinson's disease. The author argues that participatory dance offers unique benefits, best understood through the experiences and challenges of those who have chosen to dance despite their condition. This book presents personal narratives from a study investigating the lives and needs of dancers with Parkinson's, intertwined with social and political contexts. By examining the personal and systemic issues shaping people's relationship to dance, Dancing with Parkinson's builds an argument for how dance can help people live well with Parkinson's.
