Dance for PD®

MYB partners with Dance for PD® and Lucy Bowen to continue Bowen McCauley Dance Company’s legacy of providing free weekly dance classes for people with Parkinson’s Disease and their care-partners. Dance for PD® originated with the Brooklyn, NY Parkinson’s Group and the Mark Morris Dance Group but has expanded to 100 communities in nine countries. Bowen McCauley Dance Company was one of the first dance companies certified to teach this therapeutic dance class here in the DC Metro region. MYB is pleased to continue providing the program on behalf of the communities we serve.
