C ongratu lations to Anne Sta dius and Steve Levy for achievin g their Rock S teady Boxin g Certificatio n! The desire to become a Rock Steady Boxing Coach was born out of necessity. Fitness staff were working with individuals who were living and struggling with Parkinson’s disease. After research pointed us towards HIIT (high intensity interval training), by happenstance, we saw information on this boxing training and the amazing results it was producing. After both in depth research into the RSB method and actual practical results, it became obvious that the next step in our effort to provide a way to slow the progression for those in our community living with Parkinson’s Disease, was to become certified trainers and begin a Rock Steady Boxing Program in Port St. Lucie.
