DANCE CLASSES FOR PEOPLE WITH PARKINSON’S AT MARK MORRIS

The Daily News reports that Mark Morris Dance Group offers dance classes for those with Parkinson’s Disease. Here’s a quote from the article:

Over the next 75 minutes, teachers Leventhal, John Heginbotham and Misty Owens got their dance students out of their chairs and put them through their paces. There were demi-pliés at ballet barres, modern dance and tap steps, and marches across the studio floor to the strains of “Seventy-Six Trombones.” The group also did moves from the company’s own repertoire.
