SUMMARY:Ping Pong Workshop
DESCRIPTION:            \n  \nYou may have heard that ping pong has clearly been shown to have a positive impact on the progression of Parkinson’s and in a way that medication alone is not doing.  \nWhile all forms of exercise are beneficial\, the thing that makes ping-pong unique is that it incorporates a focus on balance\, hand-eye coordination\, and the rhythm or pace of reciprocal play. It really hits the trifecta of physical\, cognitive\, and social activities.  \nWe are partnering with the Milwaukee Table Tennis Club (MTTC) and they are hosting the ping pong workshop. This workshop will be exclusively for WPA community and free of charge. There will be MTTC volunteers available to demonstrate the basic table tennis strokes and provide instruction for attendees. No equipment necessary\, MTTC has 10 tables\, paddles\, and balls.  \nSpace is limited\, register today!
