Rock Steady Boxing, Inc.

Rock Steady Boxing, Inc., a no-contact boxing program that fights Parkinson's symptoms, gives participants an outlet for energy while building resilience both mentally and physically. Before a workout, participants stretch and do cardio. Stretching helps them stay flexible and cardio can slow disease progression, while boxing improves the mind-body connection that people with Parkinson's lose as the disease progresses. Most people haven't tried boxing, so they can't compare their skills from before and after their diagnosis. "They don't have any preconceived expectations of how well they did it before versus how they're going to do it in the future,” said Chris Timberlake, who serves as the director of training for Rock Steady.
