SUMMARY:Urban Poling Workshop
DESCRIPTION:A big thank you to the Wispact Foundation for providing another year of support! The grant will be used for Urban Poling workshops to provide equipment and training to 100 people with Parkinson’s. Attendees will receive the Activator Technique training by certified Urban Poling Instructor and one set of ACTIVATOR℗ Poles* \nWalking poles ensure better balance and posture\, by keeping the walker more upright. At the same time\, taking longer strides will stretch the limbs and keep the body rotated\, which can help loosen up and improve coordination. People with Parkinson’s agree\, and report that\, using the ACTIVATOR℗ Poles promotes greater independence and improves quality of life. \nThis workshop will provide the equipment\, ACTIVATOR® Poles and training for up to 25 individuals with Parkinson’s disease. After registration\, if necessary\, we will contact you regarding eligibility and to answer any questions you may have. \n*Note: Eligibility is for those individuals with Parkinson’s\, and to those who do not own a pair of ACTIVATOR℗ Poles received at a previous Urban Poling workshop. Spouses and care partners are encouraged to attend.
