Our Mindful Movement class got a spooky upgrade today! Clients, staff, and volunteers showed up in their Halloween best: witches, skeletons, an alien or two, feather boas, polka dots, and plenty of InMotion orange. 🧡🖤

We stretched, we breathed, we moved... and then we struck a pose for the most festive group photo of the year!

Proof that living with Parkinson’s disease can be seriously fun (and just a little bit frightful). Thank you to everyone who brought the costumes and the good vibes!

Happy Halloween from all of us at InMotion! 🦇

Stress is a part of life, but it doesn't have to take control. During our recent presentation with Mary Fisher-Bornstein, LISW-S and Betsy Kohn, MA,PC, participants learned practical strategies to manage stress; including physical activity, healthy eating, quality sleep, mindfulness, journaling, building support systems, and focusing on what you can control.

Small changes can make a big difference in improving resilience and overall well-being. Managing stress starts with caring for yourself.

We were delighted to welcome students from the Cleveland State University Occupational Therapy Program, led by Professor Gina Kubec, for a visit to InMotion this week!

Students learned about our mission, toured the facility, participated in a demonstration with co-founder Ben Rossi, and experienced our programming firsthand by observing and participating in classes alongside our clients. Thank you for spending the day with us and for your commitment to improving the lives of others.

We hope the experience inspired some of you to consider a future working with individuals living with Parkinson's disease, and we look forward to seeing the impact you'll make in the field!

We are thrilled to announce that InMotion has received a $20,000 grant award from McGregor Communities (McGregor Foundation) in support of our wellness and falls prevention programming for older adults living with Parkinson’s disease!

This investment will help us sustain more than 70 free classes per week — from fitness and healing arts to education and peer support — for the approximately 1,000 clients and care partners who depend on InMotion every day. It will also support the expansion of our Better Every Day falls prevention program into underserved communities across greater Cleveland.

The McGregor Foundation’s commitment to the independence, vitality, and joy of older adults reflects a vision that aligns deeply with our own. We are so grateful for this partnership. To learn more about InMotion or support our work, visit www.beinmotion.org.

Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) aren't just for people already taking RMDs.

If you're 70½ or older with an eligible IRA, you can make a QCD gift today. If you're a bit younger — say, late 60s — it's still worth learning about now, since this option becomes available a few years before RMDs typically begin (currently age 73).

A little planning ahead can make giving easier when the time comes. And your gift will make a huge impact for people with PD who need InMotion's programs - you will help us continue to offer them free of charge.

Thanks to the generosity and patience of new InMotion clients, members of the InMotion community (staff, volunteers, coaches and clients) have begun learning American Sign Language (ASL).

ASL is a complete, natural visual language used primarily by Deaf communities in the United States and Canada, with its own grammar, syntax, and cultural context. We are excited to begin learning this new language, to facilitate more respectful and open conversation with every member of our community.

Today's Sign of the Day (presented by Mike Nason, Ben Rossi and Cassie DeHaan) is the InMotion slogan, "Better Every Day"!

You don’t have to be a foundation to make a big difference at InMotion. Ask Reid Kinast.

For his mitzvah project, Reid decided to raise funds to support InMotion. His fundraising efforts allowed us to purchase three iPads. These iPads will be used for client assessments, which means faster results and getting every client into the right classes sooner so they can start feeling better right away. Watch this short video of Reid telling us why he decided to support InMotion through his mitzvah project. Thank you, Reid!

Making a QCD gift to InMotion is simpler than you might think:

1️⃣ Contact your IRA custodian and request a Qualified Charitable Distribution.
2️⃣ Share InMotion's information with them (we're happy to provide it).
3️⃣ Your custodian sends the gift directly to InMotion — you never touch the funds yourself.

That's it. No new accounts, no complicated paperwork on your end. The best part? Your gift supports InMotion's free programs for people with Parkinson's disease.

Today we pause to reflect — honoring the rich history and resilience of Indigenous peoples while recognizing this day's place in our shared story.

If you're required to take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from your IRA each year, here's something worth knowing: a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD) can count toward that RMD.

That means you can meet your IRA withdrawal requirement and support InMotion's free programs for people living with Parkinson's disease — without adding to your taxable income.
