Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A single group intervention study of adults (18-80 years-old) with Parkinson's Disease and anxiety symptoms undergoing a 6-week intervention of 30-minute yoga classes delivered remotely through videoconferencing 2-3 times per week. Subjects with symptoms of anxiety as indicated by their score on the Parkinson's Anxiety Scale will complete yoga classes delivered at-home with videoconferencing, receiving one-on-one yoga instruction including breathing, postures, and meditation/relaxation for two-three times a week. Data collection will occur remotely via videoconferencing at 0-weeks, 6-weeks after a waiting period, 12-weeks after the intervention, and 6-weeks after the last lab visit. Data collection will include demographics, mental health questionnaires, motor assessments, enjoyment, usability, and follow-up yoga status. Each yoga session will be video recorded to aide in recording adherence, adverse events, and challenges.
