I Am Rock Steady by Julie Young

In this corner.HOPE

Join us in gyms throughout the country as we introduce you to the men and women who are improving the quality of their lives through this unique program. Discover how they found hope, are fighting back against Parkinson's disease, and are learning how to be rock steady.

You'll read the stories of courageous fighters like RSB founder Scott Newman, who was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's disease at the age of 40, but didn't want to go down without a fight; Veronica Garcia-Hayes who was diagnosed with Parkinson's during pregnancy; Aaron Latham, who's wife, Lesley Stahl, profiled his fight against Parkinson's on CBS Sunday Morning.

Rock Steady Boxing>

The mission of Rock Steady Boxing is to empower people with Parkinson's disease to fight back. Rock Steady Boxing is a nonprofit organization that uses a noncontact fitness curriculum adapted from boxing drills that has been shown to decrease, delay, and even reverse the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. At RSB, Parkinson's disease is the opponent.

RSB expects that by the end of 2016, there will be more than 300 affiliate locations throughout the world and that the Rock Steady method will be a worldwide movement in the fight against Parkinson's.
