At the annual walk Parcours Parkinson of September 8, the ÉQUIPE MAGNIFIQUE de PEM surpassed their objective!

You can still contribute to the Parkinson en mouvement ÉQUIPE MAGNIFIQUE up until October 31 2024

For over a decade, Parkinson en mouvement (PEM) has given adapted dance-movement and voice classes to people living with Parkinson’s Disease. Currently, these classes are offered free of charge thanks to private donations, support from Parkinson Montreal-Laval and funds raised through events, like the annual walk/run, PARCOURS Parkinson.

Sign up yourself, or join your PEM friends, the EQUIPE MAGNIFIQUE. Friends and families are welcome to participate too.

You can also make a donation to encourage us. Funds raised will help to maintain accessibility to these valuable classes.
