Exercise Classes

This is a directory of exercise classes that are listed with PPSG. Although we try to keep the list as current as possible, details are always changing, so call ahead before you attend a class.

All community colleges have a variety of adapted physical education classes at various sites. Adapted PE classes are taught by specially trained instructors and individualized for the personal needs of the students. People with Parkinson's Disease are welcome in these classes, but should visit before registering.
