Today all these people are my teachers. Some of them are people with parkinson's disease. Some of them are the spouses, children, friends and support workers of people with P.D.. Some are dancers and fitness instructors. All of them are dancing together (or playing the music that supports this dance).

Sarah has been raising funds to run a second class, because this one is filled to capacity every week.

You can read more about sarah's work on her website. Here are all my blog entries about Sarah and her work.
