Individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease experience a range of challenges and limitations such as rigid movement, tremors, freezing, memory loss, depression, anxiety, and fear. The symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) are as unique as the individual. Exercise has been determined to improve mood and mobility. Due to the challenges experienced by individuals, there is limited participation in traditional exercise programs. Limited to no participation in an exercise program could negatively impact the quality of life for individuals living with Parkinson's disease. The purpose of the phenomenological research study was to gain a deeper insight and understanding of the lived experiences of individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease as they attend dance classes designed for adults with Parkinson's disease conducted by instructors trained in Dance for PD. The participants included 20 adults diagnosed with the disease between the ages of 50--90 years old. The nature of the research study explored the phenomenon of dance and Parkinson's disease. The lived experiences of individuals with PD attending a dance class structured for Parkinson's disease identified the connection of dance to well-being, and quality of life. The study concluded that participants saw value in the dance class. More significantly, dance became a safe environment to learn and grow from other individuals living with PD. Through this camaraderie, the individuals formed friendships and supported each other. The connection that was established between the dance instructors and the participants provided an environment where they felt safe enough to move. Because of the continuous participation, the participants gained more body awareness, experienced an alleviation of symptoms, and more energy. Participants also experienced a change in their mood and better quality of life.
