Dancing is probably the last thing on your mind…\u003cstrong\u003eThe Tango Effect\u003c\/strong\u003e is the story of an incredible year in the life of a woman with Parkinson’s. It began with a tango lesson and grew into an exploration of the healing potential of the dance. Quirky, intimate and unashamedly literary, the book takes an unflinching look at the dark side, but also at reasons to celebrate. It builds on research on the impact of dance on Parkinson's symptoms and takes it a stage further, with a behind-the-scenes record of private lessons and contributions from tango teachers. It documents the emotional and social benefits of the dance and its impact on the quality of life.         \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\" style=\"margin: 0cm; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\" style=\"margin: 0cm; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKate Swindlehurst:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"This book is my story, a story of learning to accept myself as I am but also refusing to be defined by Parkinson’s. It’s about how I found a way of living with illness that is liberating. It’s the story of an extraordinary dance, both exotic and accessible; its history, its music. It’s the story of what happens when the two come together. And it’s the story of a sustaining and enduring friendship.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\" style=\"margin: 0cm; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"paragraph\" style=\"margin: 0cm; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Tango Effect \u003c\/strong\u003echallenges our perceptions of disability.
