<\/p>\n
Rock Steady Boxing<\/a> was founded on the philosophy that people living with Parkinson’s disease can fight back against the condition through non-contact boxing-style fitness routines. The program encourages participants to push their limits, defy the odds, and take an active role in managing their health. However, what truly sets Rock Steady Boxing apart is its commitment to addressing various facets of Parkinson’s disease, including the often-overlooked vocal challenges.<\/p>\n Rock Steady Boxing classes are designed to be engaging and effective for individuals with Parkinson’s. The classes, whether done online or in person include a combination of physical exercises to improve strength, coordination, balance, mental focus, and confidence. A unique aspect to the classes is the inclusion of Voice Activation exercises to improve vocal strength, quality and stamina.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n Voice Activation exercises are a standout feature of the Rock Steady Boxing program. As participants engage in the physical workouts, they’re encouraged to perform loud vocalizations. For example participants may loudly verbalize their punching combinations: JAB! CROSS! LEFT HOOK! UPPERCUT! This combination of physical exercise and voice activation is a powerful tool in addressing the vocal challenges often faced by individuals with Parkinson’s.<\/p>\nClasses: More than Just a Workout<\/strong><\/h4>\n
