Classes

At PD-Connect, we don't exercise just to burn calories—we exercise so you can live better. Every movement has a purpose. Every exercise has a reason, and every minute counts. It's physical therapy... disguised as a workout.

Research consistently shows that high-intensity, Parkinson's-specific exercise can improve walking, balance, strength, endurance, and everyday function. 

We offer innovative programs that go beyond traditional exercise by blending movement, cognition, music, voice, and community in engaging and creative ways.

All classes are donation-based and are both live-streamed on Zoom and offered in-person across the San Francisco Bay Area.
