Fighting back against Parkinson’s.

Ridges at Peoria Senior Living is proud to offer Rock Steady Boxing classes, an affiliate program of Rock Steady Boxing Inc., exclusively for our residents/members living with Parkinson’s. These non-contact, boxing-inspired workouts help participants build strength, improve balance, and enhance their overall quality of life.

Recent studies also suggest that intense exercise programs may be “neuro-protective,” actually working to delay the progression of symptoms. Rock Steady Boxing provides encouragement by inspiring maximum effort, speed, strength, balance and flexibility. Boxing works by moving your body in all planes of motion while continuously changing the routine as you progress through the workout. Rock Steady Boxing classes may benefit anyone at any level of Parkinson’s and may lessen their symptoms and lead to a healthier, happier life.
