Diagnoses of dementia and Parkinsons carry heavy emotions, but Suzie and JP are here to share their passionate belief, that we can provide powerful, significant and overwhelmingly positive experiences through movement and exercise. They will take you through some vital information and their unique approach to bringing fun and joy through movement so that both carers and participants have new memories to take away, whether they be short-lived memories or forever memories!
As collaborators on the most progressive course for these populations currently available, Suzie and JP believe they have brought the missing link to exercise and these growing populations. Using a scientific foundation, they bring the benefits of specific forms of movement, combined with cognitive practices, into the mainstream exercise industry. If you work with any form of senior groups, this session would be invaluable for you and your clients.
Learning outcomes:
• Introductory understanding of the pathophysiology of the conditions
• Knowledge of the psychosocial elements for all parties involved
• Principles of exercise in these populations
• Awareness of contraindications for these groups
• To become a messenger of truth in all our futures
