Abstract
For as long as I can remember, my father has always loved music. He enjoys listening to music, dancing to the music, and attending events that involve music. His Parkinson’s disease has taken away a lot of what he loves to do and has created many struggles for him yet he still continues to dance and sing wholeheartedly. I created this event to gather other individuals with Parkinson’s and their caregivers or loved ones to allow them a chance to catch a glimpse of my father’s positivity and his love for music. Dancing has many benefits to help him maintain his independence for as long as possible by providing a fun workout to promote whole body wellness.
