Rock Steady Boxing<\/span><\/h3>\n
Who We Are<\/h5>\n

Rock Steady Boxing (RSB) is a first-of-its-kind, Indianapolis-based nonprofit gym founded in 2006 to provide an effective form of physical exercise to people who are living with Parkinson\u2019s. Though it may seem surprising, this non-contact boxing-inspired fitness routine is dramatically improving the ability of people with Parkinson\u2019s to live independent lives. RSB was founded by former Marion County (Indiana) prosecutor Scott C. Newman, who was diagnosed with Parkinson\u2019s disease at age 40.<\/p>\n

What We Do<\/h5>\n

Rock Steady Boxing enables people with Parkinson\u2019s disease to fight their disease by providing non-contact boxing-style fitness programs that improve their quality-of-life and sense of efficacy and self-worth. Recent studies also suggest that intense exercise programs may be \u201cneuroprotective,\u201d actually working to delay the progression of symptoms. RSB provides encouragement through a \u201ctough love\u201d approach, 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. RSB classes have proven that anyone, at any level of Parkinson\u2019s, can actually lessen their symptoms and lead a healthier\/happier life.<\/p>\n
