Research shows that regular, targeted exercise plays an important role in helping people manage the physical and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s. Boxing-based exercise provides a structured and engaging way to deliver many of the movement challenges commonly used in neurological physiotherapy.
These classes use non-contact boxing-inspired exercises to support:
Balance and postural control
Movements encourage upright posture, weight shifting and controlled changes of direction.
Coordination and movement speed
Boxing combinations promote large, purposeful movements and help counter the tendency towards smaller, slower movement patterns.
Strength and endurance
Repetitive upper and lower limb exercises help maintain functional strength and cardiovascular fitness.
Cognitive engagement
Exercises often involve following sequences, responding to cues and dual-task activities, supporting attention, memory and reaction time.
Boxing is used as a therapeutic tool, not as a combat sport. All activities are adapted to individual ability and delivered in a safe, supportive environment.
