Lutheran Life Villages — Northeast Indiana’s premier provider of senior retirement living and healthcare services — has teamed up with Rock Steady Boxing to offer the first fitness program of its kind in Northeast Indiana for people battling Parkinson’s disease. Whether you’re a man or a woman, recently diagnosed or in the latter stages of the disease, our non-contact exercise therapy program can help improve your quality of life.
Boxing works by moving the body in all planes of motion to build power, strength, flexibility and speed. Rock Steady Boxing has taken these movements to develop an innovative, non-contact boxing-style fitness program designed to delay, or even reverse the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.
We’ve entered the fight against Parkinson’s disease, and invite you to do the same. We’ve invested in training staff, purchased boxing equipment and even created an incredible boxing gym at The Village at Anthony Boulevard.
Mornings: Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday: 10:00am – 11:30am
Afternoons: Tuesday & Thursday: 2:00pm – 3:30pm
Evenings: Mondays: 6:00pm – 7:30pm Wednesdays: 6:00pm – 7:30pm
Cost: $12 per class or unlimited classes at $60/month
Directions: The Village at Anthony Boulevard. As you enter, follow signs from the driveway to the class location. Take the Residential Living elevators by the main office to the basement.
