Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if a movement to music exercise program delivered via telehealth is feasible and safe for individuals with neurodegenerative disease and their caregivers (Aim 1).

Movement to Music

Participants will be educated on how to access prerecorded Move to Improve classes conducted by a professional dance instructor which will be accessible by computer or tablet 24/7 via a hyperlink. Classes last 45 minutes, and participants will be instructed to participate in the activity at least twice weekly, for 12 weeks. Each class uses movement to music combinations across different dance genres that build in intensity and sequence complexity, accompanied by music with faster beats, to encourage participants to achieve a moderate-vigorous level of physical and cognitive activity. Care partners will be present during each class to ensure safety and will also participate in the Move to Improve exercise program. The care partner and participant will be instructed to stand at a counter or behind a chair for safety during exercise.
