Delay The Disease- Exercise for People with Parkinson's

"My dream was to design an exercise agenda that could possibly help people delay the progression of this disease, minimize their symptoms and help them maintain independence. I am convinced by the testimonials of my exercise class participants that this program is an overwhelming success. Their positive results are my biggest joy. Keep moving; stay positive - and try to do something every day!" David Zid
