Parkinson's UK launches On the Move

On the Move is a new podcast series from Parkinson's UK and content creators, Soundyard, which offers a mix of seated or standing workouts that anyone can follow. 

The podcast series features 8 episodes with host and exercise instructor, Sonia, taking listeners through a variety of movements and activities which are designed to help everyone get active in an accessible and engaging way. 

The new podcast is part of the popular Parkinson’s UK physical activity media library which features a range of multimedia assets and resources which aim to help more people get active with the condition. 

On the Move uses a range of low to moderate exercises and movements which focus on both the physical and wellbeing benefits of seated or standing movement. 

The new podcast series is available for all ages and abilities and every movement is designed to be easy to follow and repeat. 

On the Move is designed to be used as part of a person’s daily routine and the aim is to encourage those with lower mobility or lower levels of activity to try something new. 

On the Move is available on all podcasting and streaming sites, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Amazon Music, among many others. 

Speaking about the On the Move podcasts, Anna Castiaux, Physical Activity Programme Lead at Parkinson’s UK, said: 

“On the Move is a fantastic new resource for people with Parkinson’s to get active and live well in 2026. The routines are all designed to be followed either from the comfort of your own home, or when you’re on the move. 

“My hope is that more people with Parkinson’s, or with a connection to the condition will have the opportunities to be more active.”  

Being active is shown to have many benefits for people living with Parkinson’s, including: 

• Improved balance and coordination
• Better strength, flexibility and mobility
• Improved sense of wellbeing and mindfulness 
• Greater social interaction
