I am participating in Moving Day Chicago, benefiting the Parkinson's Foundation. This is my 9th year serving on the Planning Committee and chairing the Movement Pavilion for the annual walk. This year is a first!  The event is virtual.  On the plus side anyone can register and participate no matter where you live, resulting in larger teams with friends and family all over the world. 

The event will be a fun-filled, family-friendly event for all ages and abilities. We will be able to enjoy a variety of movement activities like yoga, dance, Karate, Tai Chi, boxing, stretching and much more and celebrate the importance of movement in our lives. This year the sample classes we will feature are: PWR! Moves, Tango for PD, Karate fro Parkinson's,, Chair Yoga and Body posture awareness with a dance therapist.  After the event, grab your pod teamates and go for a walk, run, bike together!

Please consider being a part of my team or sponsoring me, and I encourage you to get your friends, family, students and coworkers involved.

Thank you for helping me reach my fundraising goal to support the vital work of the Parkinson's Foundation.

Why Move for Moving Day?

Did you know that someone is diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease every 9 minutes in the United States? No one should have to face Parkinson’s alone. That is why the Parkinson's Foundation provides a community of support to give people the resources and help they need to live well with Parkinson’s.

Support our mission to help every person diagnosed with Parkinson's live their best possible life now. Your gift will help us fund better research, better treatment and better lives.
