April 30, 2025(2 events) 9:45 am: Rehabilitative Qigong and Tai Chi for beginners – Rehabilitative Qigong and Tai Chi involves simple, easy to learn movements. We will not become frustrated learning a complex choreographed form as is taught in classical Tai Chi. Rather, we will repeat a few basic movements. Through this repetition, we can learn to move with greater ease, confidence, and awareness. And by moving in a relaxed manner, we will begin to experience a state of healing. Also, the benefits of self massage, coordinating and deepening the breath, and meditation will be explored. Some benefits of this practice include improved balance, strength, coordination, flexibility, thinking, mood and more... These classes are appropriate for anyone with mild to moderate PD. No prior experience necessary. Facilitator: Gil WetteI’ve been a practicing physical therapist since 1994. I have worked in my own private practice until recently when I took medical leave. I was diagnosed with PD in 2014 when I was 50 years old. Having experience in Tai Chi, my interest in this practice was revitalized after learning of my condition. Now I’m looking to share in the benefits I have gained from the practice of Rehabilitative Tai Chi and Qigong. Class Location: Zoom Please contact Gil for Zoom log in formation and class waiver.

Zoom 10:30 am: May Support Meeting: Insomnia - Sleep and Parkinson's - Dr. Ryan Barmore – 
Prairie Sage Rooms 2&3 The Parkinson's Support Group in Larimer County is honored to have Dr. Barmore speak to us on Insomnia - Sleep and Parkinson's - REM, restless leg syndrome, too much sleepiness. We thank him for his expertise and time to be with us May 7, 10:30am, Fort Collins Senior Center. About Dr. Ryan BarmoreDr. Barmore's specialty is neurology. He earned his medical degree from the University of Colorado, Aurora, in 2013, fulfilled his neurology residency at the Medical University of South Carolina in 2017 and completed his fellowship in 2019 from the University of Florida College of Medicine. In 2017 he was certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. We are lucky to have him serving us in both Fort Collins and Loveland through Banner Health. Dr. Barmore believes the foundation of a good patient physician relationship is communication, and he strives to first understand an individual's values and goals of care. He takes the extra time to understand, but, just as important, is taking the time to educate patients and their families about their disease, which may impact multiple areas of their lives. Dr. Barmore specializes in neurology with special interest in movement disorders including Parkinson's disease, tremor, dystonia, Huntington disease, gait disorders as well as the use of advanced therapies including deep brain stimulation. 2:15 pm: Moving through Parkinson's –
