The Tango Effect on Parkinson's, with Kate Swindlehurst

We met with writer Kate Swindlehurst to discuss her book, The Tango Effect, and how dancing tango has benefitted her and her Parkinson's. Kate talks about how she became involved in tango, the many ways she has found it helped her, and how she turned her experiences into literature.

Thank you to Kate for sharing your story with us; we hope that it can inspire you to try new things, and find something that helps you as much as tango has helped Kate. :)
