Learn to live better with Parkinson's
Gentle online awareness lessons
for a renewed sense of agency, emotional balance and stability.
Parkinson's isn't just a medical condition. It's a daily negotiation with uncertainty.
Energy comes and goes. Mobility changes from one day to the next. Transport becomes harder.The simplest things — getting out of bed, walking to the kitchen, standing up from a chair — can feel different every single day. Not mentioning your very sense of Self.
Most programs offer generic exercises. They don't account for how you feel today.
You already know that movement is good for you. Even with the best local professionals, weekly sessions are rarely enough. Yet, you never know when you'll have the energy to do more.What you need is frequency. Regularity. But also a practice that adapts to your state.This is what Neuro9 was built for.
Not exercise. Learning through gentle movement and awareness online lessons.
The Feldenkrais Method teaches the nervous system to find new solutions. Not by forcing, but by sensing — by paying attention to how you move and discovering what's possible when you stop fighting yourself.This program is not a cure, nor a therapy. This is a learning protocol tailored on the spot to your specific needs - and your specific daily state - by a Guild certified Feldenkrais practitioner.
The main benefits of the program are psychological as much as physical.
The aim of the program is to give you the opportunity to learn - by paying attention to your sensations as you follow your teacher's instructions - how to better navigate life with Parkinson's.We expect you to experience, by the end of the program :• a renewed sense of agency• improved emotional balance• better stability in all movements— starting exactly where you are today.

21 minute
lessons
Each online lesson is made up of 3 chunks of 7 minutes to manage tiredness and provide necessary rest periods. Always taught by the same dedicated instructor from start to finish.

(more or less)
This program is designed to cover the specific needs of students with Parkinson's. We will adapt it if you require extra sessions or need more rest.
full program
16 weeks
This initial program of 48 lessons over 4 months teaches you the method with enough intensity to help your nervous system reorganize.
SCIENCE BACKED
30 Day Protocol
The first 30 days of the program follows the protocol of a pilot-study by the University of Vienna Department of Cognitive Science.
Safety First
All Guild Certified Feldenkrais practitioners who teach on the Neuro9 platform have completed a training program designed by the neurology department of the Vienna University Hospital to recognise all signs of distress linked to Parkinson's.Your teacher will have both your local emergency number and the number of someone you trust in case anything happens during the lesson.
What happens next ?
The Feldenkrais Method is a learning method, not a therapy. It will deliver its benefits as long as you practice it.After the initial programme, you will have enough experience and guidance to maintain your own daily practice.If you require them, regular individual lessons will be available on the Neuro9 platform. You will also "graduate" to bi-weekly group lessons with fellow students living with Parkinson's. On your own time.The sense of community is very much part of a good life.
WHO ARE WE ?
Neuro9 is a cooperative of Feldenkrais practitioners. We teach in 17 languages and work across borders.Our vision is to build a web platform that makes frequent, regular, personalised lessons accessible to anyone who needs them, as much as they need them — without transport, without waiting, without compromise.We decided to focus our efforts on providing lessons to people living with Parkinson's because we know from experience that they can benefit tremendously from shorter but more frequent lessons - and that those specific needs are impossible to meet in the current context.We believe that, as a community of practitioners and students, we have all the resources we need - together - to redefine what it means to live with Parkinson's.
