Scott invites you to experience something unique at Rock Steady Boxing Glasgow, a boxing gym in Rutherglen. Scott, deeply connected to Rock Steady Boxing, invites the sports community to join in this remarkable programme specifically designed for those living with Parkinson’s disease.
Founded in 2006 in Indianapolis, Rock Steady Boxing was the brainchild of Scott C. Newman, a former Indiana prosecutor who himself was diagnosed with Parkinson's at 40. Scott was personally trained at the Rock Steady headquarters in Indianapolis and brought this programme to the UK, making RSB Glasgow the first of its kind here.
Parkinson’s, as many know, is a chronic neurological disorder affecting movement control. The RSB programme, which blends boxing-inspired exercises, offers a significant improvement for those with Parkinson’s. Intense workouts, like those provided at RSB Glasgow, may offer neuroprotective benefits and potentially slow or halt the progression of symptoms. The earlier one starts, the better the potential benefits.
Every month, over 25,000 individuals across the globe take part in Rock Steady Boxing routines. At RSB Glasgow, workouts are personalised to fit each participant’s fitness level and symptoms, proving the importance of tailored exercise for those with Parkinson’s.
A standout feature of RSB Glasgow is the strong sense of community. Members, all facing similar battles, support one another, building camaraderie and re-establishing self-esteem. This shared experience offers both physical and emotional benefits, making the journey more engaging and less daunting.
If you’re ready to take on Parkinson’s and uncover your potential, Scott encourages you to join today. At Rock Steady Boxing Glasgow, you’ll find a supportive community engaged in non-contact, boxing-based fitness programmes aimed at improving quality of life.
