Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an incurable neurodegenerative disorder, making therapies that manage symptoms and improve quality of life a crucial healthcare intervention for both patients and their caregivers. The NeuroDance project aims, through an interdisciplinary approach and certification, to train teachers to lead tailored dance interventions for people with PD and other neurodegenerative disorders. The main goal of the project is the annual implementation of a five-month dance intervention across four countries, which will be further developed into a digital platform for long-term education and dissemination of best practices.
