Dance for People with Parkinson's
Experience the fellowship of communal dance. If you or a loved one is living with Parkinson’s, join us to explore gentle movement in a safe, welcoming environment.
Set to uplifting, familiar music, this 70-minute monthly class may assist with the preservation and improvement of balance, flexibility, and strength. Please dress comfortably for this full-body workshop.
Workshop Location: Level 2 Rehearsal Rooms
• The Drama Rehearsal Room can be reached most directly from the Yellow and Orange parking garages (off of Illinois Street).
• If you need help locating the Drama Rehearsal Room, you can watch our YouTube video that walks you from the Orange parking garage to the class.
Please note: The 10am morning classes are held in the Drama Rehearsal Room and the 6:30pm evening classes are held in the Opera Rehearsal Room.
Guests are invited to join Krannert Center in helping children stay warm this winter. Bring new or gently used coats, mittens, gloves, hats, scarves, and ear muffs for this season's clothing drive. All collected items will go to the Champaign Unit 4 School District and Urbana School District 116. Donation boxes will be available in the lobby near Intermezzo cafe.
