Fitness curriculum improving quality of life for those with Parkinson’s.
We’ve entered the fight against Parkinson’s disease, and we invite you to do the same. Rock Steady Boxing at Lutheran Life Villages was the first affiliate of the program in Northeast Indiana. This program has now grown to more than 800 locations in an effort to help as many Parkinson’s patients as possible fight back! Whether recently diagnosed or in the latter stages of the disease, this non-contact exercise therapy program can help improve your quality of life.
The Village at Anthony is proud to offer a large gym equipped with boxing gear and exercise equipment. Our trained coaches are knowledgeable and ready to help you, regardless of the stage of your disease, by providing modification and progression options to all participants.
