This book explores the experience and value of dancing for people
living with the neurodegenerative disorder Parkinson's disease.
Linking aesthetic values to wellbeing, Sara Houston articulates the
importance of the dancing experience for those with Parkinson's,
and argues that the benefits of participatory dance are best
understood through the experiences, lives, needs and challenges of
people living with Parkinson's who have chosen to dance. Presenting
personal narratives from a study that investigates the experience
of people with Parkinson's who dance, intertwined with the social
and political contexts in which the dancers live, this volume
examines the personal and systemic issues as well as the attitudes
and identities that shape people's relationship to dance. Taking
this new primary research as a starting point, Dancing with
Parkinson's builds an argument for how dance becomes a way of
helping people live well with Parkinson's.
