Knockin' Out
Parkinson's
Knockin’ Out Parkinson’s is a class specifically for those diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. We will utilize non-contact boxing drills to challenge cardio, while incorporating balance, hand-eye coordination and overall strength building. Research has found that 2-3 workout sessions per week, consisting of 30-50 minutes/session of moderate to intense cardio output will help slow/stop the progression of Parkinson’s. This class is easily modified for all fitness levels and you can come join us at any time. We have fun, we laugh, we sing and we support one another, but we have a great time Knockin’ Out Parkinson’s!
