Abstract

Summary
The research project "Dancing with Parkinson" (2019-2022) explored the following question about dance from the perspective of people with Parkinson's disease.
What do people with Parkinson's and their carers find meaningful in regards to dance in their everyday life?
The presentation discussed the main results:
- music is inseparable from dance and brings happiness (joy) and aesthetic experiences,
- belonging to a community that accepts differences is important for social well-being,
- hope as an the experiential aspect of dance is relevant existentially when coping with a chronic, neurodegenerative disease.
