March 18th, 4:00-6:00 pm
ENR2 N120
Rob Mermin, mime, founder of the award-winning Circus Smirkus, and creator of the Parkinson's Performance Troupe will talk about and demonstrate some of the tactics he uses to improve coordination, postural awareness, and development of reflexes in people challenged with Parkinson’s Disease, as he is. The presentation will also include Dr. Becky Farley, who will bring a neuroscience perspective to the table. Becky founded Parkinson's Wellness Recovery (PWR!), a community neurofitness center that focuses on the power of exercise to improve symptoms and slow progression of Parkinson's Disease.
