SUMMARY:MEMBER EVENT: Rock Steady Boxing – Parkinson's Disease
DESCRIPTION:Rock Steady Boxing is a non-contact boxing program that was developed to help fight the effects of Parkinson's disease. Medical studies over a 10-year period have concluded that the forced\, intense\, explosive action of boxing training is an effective form of exercise for people living with Parkinson's. The program is dramatically improving the ability of these patients to live independent lives\, increasing their self-esteem\, sense of efficacy\, and quality of life.\n\n\n\nRecent studies also show that this form of exercise may be "neuro-protective"   actually working to delay the progression of symptoms. Rock Steady Boxing is offered to our community through the Huntsville-Madison County Senior Center but serves adults with Parkinson's of any age. The local group is one of more than 300 Rock Steady Boxing affiliates worldwide. The group meets at a local gym where 40 volunteers work with 52 "boxers."\n\n\n\nCome learn about the program at LearningQuest and see a demonstration of boxing moves!
