I’m happy to say that I was in the first RSB Santa Fe class! It continues to be just what my body wants/needs in a workout. Knowledgeable coaches push me to work hard and always challenge my body and mind. Really though - it’s the friends I have made and the fun we have that keeps me coming back. A workout is a workout, POP Santa Fe is love that kicks your butt.

What a resource we have in our community! Punching Out Parkinson’s Santa Fe has undoubtedly developed into an inclusive community for which I’m truly grateful. From the kick-butt exercise programs, to a boxing sequencing coordination program, to the thoughtful brain teasers - the informed nature and dedication of our coaches and volunteers shines brightly! We are truly blessed. Trying to stay a few steps ahead of Parkinson’s is hard enough; I hate to think of where I’d be without this resource!

POP Santa Fe, RSB and PWR classes, and PDClubhouse not only introduced me to a whole new physical regimen with mind-boggling punch combinations and challenging brain calisthenics (the best way to slow the progress of Parkinson's) but also added a roster of thoughtful pals to the cohort of people I care about.
