Fighting back against Parkinson’s.
The Palms of Largo campus offers several programs that help individuals fight back against Parkinson’s, including the Tremble Clefs, Rock Steady Boxing, and support groups. We are grateful to offer these opportunities, which may benefit varying stages of Parkinson’s, lessen symptoms and lead to a healthier life.
Rock Steady Boxing
The Palms of Largo offers Rock Steady Boxing classes, an affiliate program of Rock Steady Boxing Inc., which enable individuals with Parkinson’s to fight back through non-contact boxing-style fitness programs that are designed to improve their quality of life, sense of efficacym and self-worth.
Recent studies also suggest that intense exercise programs may be “neuro-protective,” actually working to delay the progression of symptoms. Rock Steady Boxing provides encouragement by inspiring maximum effort, speed, strength, balance and flexibility. Boxing works by moving your body in all planes of motion while continuously changing the routine as you progress through the workout. Rock Steady Boxing classes may benefit anyone at any level of Parkinson’s and may lessen their symptoms and lead to a healthier, happier life.
Rock Steady Boxing at The Palms of Largo offers hope and fitness opportunities to participants like Mike and his fellow boxers as they fight back against Parkinson's. The program encourages them to meet socially and challenge themselves physically in ways proven to mitigate and delay the onset of the health challenges they face.
We are better at the conclusion of each exercise session — fresher mentally, more fit athletically and feeling more hopeful about our health.

What a class is like
Boxing classes are taught by Rock Steady Boxing Certified Coaches and include an exercise program that attacks Parkinson’s at its vulnerable neurological points. The program focuses on overall fitness, strength training, reaction time and balance, HIIT, and circuit training. No boxing experience is necessary and people of all ages are invited to participate. Boxers, both male and female, range in age from mid-30s to early 90s. Boxing gloves are the only equipment needed.
Tremble Clefs
The Tremble Clefs is a nationally recognized singing program for those with Parkinson’s disease. This group therapy program addresses voice symptoms, like breathing, volume, pitch, range, stretching, posture, rhythm and movement. We are excited to offer this opportunity at The Palms of Largo, complementing our current and robust Parkinson’s programming.
