Dance for Parkinson’s Scotland – Information for dance artists, musicians, volunteers and participants

As you are aware, Dance Base is keeping all participants, volunteers, and artists updated on changes to classes in response to the COVID-19 virus. We are reviewing guidance daily and in light of recent escalation, and in line with government advice, we have taken the decision to cancel all Dance for Parkinson’s Scotland classes until the situation improves and it seems safe to resume. We, together with Scottish Ballet, have taken this decision to safeguard all members of our Dance for Parkinson’s Scotland community.

We will keep all our dance artists, musicians, volunteers and participants updated of any changes.

Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to see you back at class soon.
