Private Parkinson's Disease Yoga Classes

Baylee will customize your Private Parkinson’s Disease Yoga Classes to fit your needs. No matter where you are starting from, you will benefit from a well designed Yoga class.

Private Parkinson’s Disease Yoga is a beneficial therapy that improves flexibility; strengthens posture; loosens tight or painful muscles; and builds your confidence.

MOTOR SYMPTOMS AND PRIVATE PARKINSON’S DISEASE YOGA CLASSES

The symptoms of tremors, slowness of movement, stiffness, and trouble with balance will be eased with a well designed Yoga practice.

The first thing you’ll need is an experienced teacher who’ll start by assessing your current capabilities and then mold a practice that safely starts at your current level of capability. After the initial assessment Baylee will customize your practice with the use of props such as chairs, blocks, and straps will contribute to a safe and achievable Yoga routine. Also, if it is not possible for you to start on the floor, then your practice can start in a chair. Eventually your practice can gradually advance to floor work and later to standing work.

EXPERTS VIEW OF YOGA FOR PARKINSON’S DISEASE

The Michael J Fox Foundation posted an article in their blog about the benefits of Yoga for Parkinson’s Disease. Here is an excerpt:

Yoga continues to rise in popularity and is cited as a favorite non-medical therapy by many living with Parkinson’s disease. Getting started can seem challenging, as it is often portrayed with pretzel-like contortions and trendy #yogaselfies on social media. But, yoga is an adaptable practice, with both functional and psychosocial benefits, that can be suited to a variety of abilities.

The American Parkinson Disease Association (ADPA), says that yoga therapy can help reduce tremors and improve the steadiness of an person’s gait.

An informative article in Yoga International spells out some of the approaches and benefits of Yoga for Parkinson’s Disease.
