danceABILITIES upTOWN and downTOWN


DanceFIT danceABILITIES Canada is pleased to announce our fall dance-wellness program. Each class is specifically choreographed for individuals with movement differences such as Parkinson’s, fibromyalgia, MS, joint replacement, arthritis, cancer, stroke or if you use walkers, canes or wheels for mobility and balance. Feel free to register late, drop in, or try a class... it is never too late to dance

Classes are taught in seated and standing positions to embodied-melodies, enlivening-global beats, floor-defying funk and jazz-ripped rhythms. From Waltz to Musical Comedy to Disco, we “fire it and wire it” together, strengthening what we can in an atmosphere of authentic community fun.

Founder, Miriam Schacter, is a trained dance-fitness choreographer, neuro/trauma-oriented psychotherapist-in-supervision and teacher for Dancing with Parkinson's. With 3 years experience as a physiotherapy assistant in hospital and clinical settings, and the DWP teacher at the Center for Movement Disorders, Miriam is pleased to offer a much needed movement program committed to our communities, medical health research, and the arts.
