Feb 28th, I had a wonderful visit with both the Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s family support Groups in Bluffton/Hilton Head, South Carolina. We did the ‘Chi for You’ and ‘5 Elements’ Routines. Many of the atttendees agreed to partiicpate in our on going research about utlity of taiji/qigong for caregivers and individuals with Alzheimer’s disease.
This past June, we presented preliminary results of our ongoing research into the utility of an instructional DVD (Chi for You, Two, or More) and perceived benefits of taiji/qigong practice for caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer’s disease. We are still conducting free workshops in our area as a means of recruiting subjects and are willing to travel to conduct free workshops in other geographic areas.
Let us know if you want to host a workshop in your area. This work is partially funded by a grant from D’Youville College.
