“Let’s Play House” A Creative Way To Care
Caregiving Policy for a Playful Planet
Today I promise you a fascinating show! Carlynn Reed and Jonathon Neville are two actors and dancers who have found a new way to share how they care.
Jonathon cares for his mom, Christine, who has Alzheimer. He openly admits
“I had no love for Mom. No connection. Then I discovered Contact Dance.”
Carlynn cares for her son, Kirk and finds through letting go they are both able to begin again.
Who would have thought through an acrobatic, playful, and funny dance; these two actors and dancers would find a peaceful and promising answer to giving care. This intense drama overlays science, dance intelligence, and caregiving igniting profound change and insights into their caring ways. Come listen as Jonathon and Carlynn share their stories.

Care for such patients is particularly challenging because Alzheimer behavior is often mistaken as “old age” and not recognized as the result of an organic brain disorder.
I agree! WE need to change our care culture so people have a better understanding of what is really going on .
