Knock out Parkinson’s Disease!
In 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that more than 8.5 million people worldwide had Parkinson’s disease (PD). In the United States, the American Parkinson Disease Association
estimates that around one million people have PD, and that number is expected to increase to 1.2 million by 2030.
The YMCA of Muncie is proud to introduce Rock Steady Boxing, a boxing-based program for people with Parkinson’s Disease. The exercise program has shown to slow the progression of the disease,
reduce falls/hospitalizations, and improve quality of life for individuals with Parkinson’s.
