LIVESTRONG is a FREE, 12-week program for cancer survivors in the transitional period between completing treatment and finding their “new normal.” This program offers survivors support, camaraderie, and an opportunity to practice physical fitness. Build muscle mass, manage your weight, and improve energy levels and self-esteem in a supportive environment with fellow survivors. 

Are you a cancer survivor? Have you completed our LIVESTRONG AT THE Y Program? Do you miss the camaraderie of your fellow survivors? During our weekly classes, one of our Livestrong coaches will guide you through scientifically proven methods of exercise to include strength, cardio, balance, and flexibility.

This program offers an outlet for people with Parkinson’s disease through a non-contact boxing based fitness curriculum. By exercising with coaches who know the ropes, you can fight your way out of the corner and start to feel and function better. Boxing works by moving your body in all planes of motion while continuously changing the routine as you progress through the workout. Our staff will work with each participant to focus on individual goals and exercises specific to their battle and ability level.

Our Parkinson's Support Group offers a forum where members can talk, share and learn from each other. Find community support, go over lifestyle factors, and disease management strategies. 

This program is FREE and open to the entire Parkinson's Community, their loved ones, caregivers, Rock Steady Boxing Program participants and MORE! You do not need to be a Y member to participate.
