On World Parkinson’s Day (April 11), Kathak Rockers, led by dancer Kumar Sharma, will host a workshop that explores Kathak as a form of movement-based therapy. Designed to engage, the session focuses on how classical dance can support people living with Parkinson’s. “The workshop will highlight how Kathak works as a positive mind and body exercise for people with Parkinson’s,” emphasises Sharma. He further explains that the structured rhythm of the dance plays a crucial role in physical and motor improvement.
