Young Parkinson’s Meeting: 6th August

The next meeting of the ‘YP’ Group takes place on Thursday 6th August at The Hunters Tryst, Oxgangs Road, Edinburgh at 6:30 to start at 7:00pm

Their guest is Craig Comrie, who is a former professional footballer, experienced personal trainer, and boxing coach with a special interest in working with Parkinson’s.

Craig has been working with P-UK, and takes classes in Stirling with his type of Parkinson’s friendly online boxing. Some training is seated and some not.  It’s not a ‘one exercise does all’ and Craig does an introductory session to have a better idea of peoples capabilities.  His is a transformative online boxing programme that helps people with Parkinson’s control the impact of PD on their lives, by making them stronger both physically and mentally.

Some details of the class Craig runs in Stirling are available from this link

At the meeting, Craig is expected to outline the potential to introduce classes that will run outside of normal working hours (6pm-ish) and be available on demand pre-recorded anytime.  We will update of any developments.
