You have heard it many times -- exercise might be the best medicine for fighting the symptoms of PD. Unfortunately many people can't seem to find a fitness routine they enjoy. For others, the word fitness is akin to an unpleasant four-letter word! We encourage you to try Rock Steady Boxing College Station. Our family of PD fighters have discovered that a heavy dose of camaraderie along with a healthy helping of fun allows them to fight back against PD with exercise. The Robert Conte Foundation is a licensed affiliate of Rock Steady Boxing, Inc., a well-known, international fitness program designed specifically for people with PD. Locally we offer RSB classes 3 days a week -- MWF 10:30 - 11:30 am 12:00 - 1:00 pm 3803 McCullough in College Station, TX. (off of Wellborn Rd.) We welcome visitors to drop by during any of our classes to witness the energy and dedication of those who have chosen to fight back against their symptoms of PD. We call our RSB participants "fighters" for a good reason. Email: collegestation@rsbaffiliate.com |
