Scottish Ballet is spearheading a groundbreaking Dance for Parkinson’s Scotland programme, delivered in partnership with Dance Base. Scottish Ballet commissioned this short film to raise awareness of the project and to share some of the inspiring stories of class participants.

There is growing recognition that ballet and dance can have positive benefits on both the physical and mental well-being of those with Parkinson’s. The warm and informal Dance for Parkinson’s Scotland classes aim to make a positive impact on participants' lives and focuses on enabling those with Parkinson’s to experience the benefits of dance and creativity, improving balance, spatial awareness, confidence and fluidity in movement.
