Abstract | This case study examined the contents and experiences of people participating in a weekly leisure dance class geared towards people with Parkinson's disease. Using critical geragogy as a conceptual framework, we examine how the conditions of this program support lifelong learning through both the content and the learning environment. Participants performed a variety of dances in seated and standing positions. The class began with a seated warm up followed by standing exercises that eventually moved thorough space. Each session by concluded by standing or sitting in a circle where they connected with one another through a dance-based interaction. This time of physical interaction honoured and supported peer connections. Interpersonal relationships were also enriched in the 'in-between times' of sessions, such as the conversations before and after class. Findings from this research demonstrate how designing an accessible environment allowed for participants to move in new, unimagined ways. It also facilitated a positive space for people to feel beautiful and to meet other people who are going through similar experiences. (As Provided). |
