Rock Steady Boxing

Our Story

Rock Steady Boxing was founded in 2006 by Scott C. Newman after his diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease at age 40. Determined to fight back, Scott trained with former Golden Gloves boxer Vince Perez, discovering that boxing helped control his symptoms. This journey inspired others in his Young Onset PD group, leading to the creation of a supportive community that has gained national attention. With the addition of professional boxer Kristy Rose Follmar, a comprehensive curriculum was developed, and today, Rock Steady Boxing has expanded to over 800 affiliate locations across 14 countries.

Impact

Rock Steady Boxing inspires hope and empowers individuals with Parkinson’s disease to regain control of their lives through a non-contact, boxing-based fitness curriculum.
