NYU/JCC Parkinson Wellness Program

The New York University Parkinson and Movement Disorders Center and the Jewish Community Center in Manhattan proudly announce a partnership to establish the NYU/JCC Parkinson Wellness Program. This innovative partnership was founded with the aim of helping to improve our participants’ quality of life through learning, fitness and creativity. Pre-registration is required for all classes and events.
