The aim of this study is to compare two physical therapy training consisting of gait training that are distinguished by one being associated with tasks that require handling of the main executive functions, performed by individuals with Parkinson\'s Disease. The investigators hypothesis is that the experimental group (EG), which hold gait training with higher cognitive demands (dual-task condition), will make improvements in the parameters measured (functionality of gait and cognitive ability) to a greater extent compared to the control group (CG), which hold gait training without executive tasks (single-task condition).
