To implement such a practice in everyday life implies to change habits. Patient Education programs are useful tools to help changing behaviors. The study evaluate the effect of a program aiming to promote adapted physical activity in early stage Parkinson's disease by comparing patients receiving the program and patients on a waiting list. The hypothesis that the program will increase the one-week mean daily moderate to intense physical activity as measured with an actimeter.
