Hello Polly, Cooper and everyone at PfPs Am now back home after visiting my parents in the north east of England for a few weeks, as well as going on my holidays to the Norwegian Fjords also. The scenery in and around Norway is absolutely breathtaking and the Norwegians are just so lovely. If ever you get a chance to go there, you should. It has some of the best scenery I’ve ever seen. Anyway, back to exercising….. 😊 I’ve missed working out with you all, so it felt great to get back into it again. Today’s class did not disappoint and I felt so good afterwards, despite a few little aches and pains. I found I could just about manage to keep up with you and the pace was just about right for me. The change in tempo exercises were challenging but I enjoyed doing them (with the up, down of the arms and then across the body); they helped ease some of the stiffness I have been having lately (possibly through lack of exercising these past few weeks, oops naughty of me). There was some good range of motion and core strength elements incorporated into the routine too, including the ‘close, open, close, open, knee, knee’, as well as the ‘legs, thighs, starfish patterns. I enjoyed these and I could definitely feel it around my tummy afterwards so felt I’d had a good session. Good cardio workout for me also, as well as the spelling challenges. Definitely liked doing the multi-tasking and cognition challenges as always 😊 This was a great class to get me back into the swing of things and it was so nice to see Cooper being the good boy that he always is. I enjoyed seeing all the different pictures behind you Polly - are those of Austin? Have a great week everyone and thank you, Amanda x

[@pollycaprio3568]

Hello Amanda! Welcome back from your vacation-it sounds like everything was lovely- you got to see beautiful scenery and family too❤️. We are so happy you enjoyed this workout, and I love how you analyzed it so thoroughly-you definitely ‘got’ the method behind the madness! Yes, the photos in the backdrop are indeed of Austin, TX USA~Cooper really has become a good helper in these videos and he enjoys coming into the office with me--he runs inside with his tail wagging to say hello to everyone who happens to be there! Glad you are back into your exercise routine! Have a great week💜💜💜

[@User-AmandaL21502]

Thank you Polly; it’s good to be back home and exercising to your workouts again - I always feel so much better afterwards 😊 Austin looks so big with lots of lovely open spaces, especially compared to where I live. It’s so clean with some very pretty areas too. Was especially lovely to see Cooper again for sure - he’s a real credit to you and is a joy to watch 😊 @@pollycaprio3568

[@PowerforParkinsons]

Thank you so much for your lovely comments Amanda!! We really appreciate you sharing more about yourself each week. It sounds like Norway was absolutely incredible and we are glad you enjoyed it. So good that you have jumped back into movement as well. Keep up the great work friend!!

[@pollycaprio3568]

[@shivajimahindrakar458]

Good 👍

[@PowerforParkinsons]

We are glad you enjoyed this class!!

[@holland271]

Great range of motion, Polly. Thanks. Were those backgrounds scenes of Austin? It was fun to see Cooper at the beginning...then he disappeared. Taking a nap? Snacking? Exercising off camera?

[@pollycaprio3568]

Hello Holland Michigan friends! Yes, the photos are from Austin, TX-we thought they might add some fun to the workout! And you are right-we did do a lot of range of motion (ROM) exercises in the particular class--important for Parkinson’s. Cooper is funny-he did join us in the beginning and then found another cozy spot in another part of our office where he took a nice nap haha!! Hope you both have a wonderful week-see you next time!💜💜💜

[@PowerforParkinsons]

We are glad you enjoyed this class friends!! See you again soon :)

[@gracethambirasa7737]

Thanks Polly.

[@sunilwickramasuriya618]

We are from Sri Lanka and enjoying doing these exercises. We are not aware of Power for Parkinson's in our country. So plan to share with others who have PD. Thank you so much

[@gracethambirasa7737]

Hi Sunil, I am originally from Sri Lanka and living in Australia. I have Parkinson’s and have been doing PFP exercises. I found that the instructors Lauren, Polly and others were very good in motivating us. It is helping me with my symptoms.
