Blue Boy Boxing Club — Establishment, health and gym at 400 Watertown Road, Thomaston, Connecticut.

I had never boxed in my life before I started coming to Blue Boy Boxing for the Parkinson's class. The class is 3 days per week but I almost wish I could go everyday because I feel so much better after each class. In fact I feel so good that I started training for 5Ks and beyond, i.e.: my first half marathon. Occasionally, I will go to one of the advanced classes to challenge myself. But while I started going to help me overcome the symptoms of Parkinson's, I've also come to appreciate the strategy of boxing as a sport. Because Coach Kareem doesn't instruct you like a Parkinson's patient but as a boxing pupil. He teaches what he knows, which by chance just happens to help people with Parkinson's. So if boxing has ever interested you, check 'em out, whether you have Parkinson's or not.
