Brief Summary

This study aims to compare the effect of a program of Adapted Physical Activity (APA) versus the same program combined with a physical activity education program (PAE). Patients suffering from neurocognitive disorders (mild or early major) will be randomized into one of the two conditions. 3 complete evaluations will be done (inclusion M0, after 3 month of intervention M3, 3 months after the end of the intervention M6). The team except that APA+PEA will be more effectiv than the APA solely, on the following criteria : level of physical activity, cogntive function and quality of life.

APA (adapted physical activity) + physical activity education (PAE)APA24 APA sessions will take place, there will be 2 sessions a week for 12 weeks which will include global exercises for the upper and lower limb. One session will be 1 hour long and supervised by professionals. It will be divided in 4 cycles which will be differentiated by the intensity of its components: aerobic, strength, speed, balance, coordination and flexibility. The intensity of the sessions will be measured by RPE and heart rate monitor, + 8 individuals sessions of PAE (one per week, half an hour long) that will consist of advising and setting weekly goals related to improving PA level and sedentary behavior
