Move with purpose and power—discover how fitness can help you thrive with Parkinson’s.
Michele Walker / Physical Therapist and Fitness Specialist
Train your brain and body to move BIG – practice larger, more intentional movements to fight the small, shuffling motions Parkinson’s can cause.
Boost strength and power – boxing-inspired drills and functional exercises build muscle and endurance for everyday activities.
Improve flexibility and posture – targeted stretches and movement patterns help loosen stiffness and support upright alignment.
Sharpen balance and coordination – practice dynamic exercises that reduce fall risk and increase confidence in movement.
Enhance mobility and independence – learn techniques that carry over into walking, standing up, and daily routines.
Stay motivated in a group setting – the energy of working alongside others brings accountability, encouragement, and fun.
Support brain health – challenging movement patterns stimulate neuroplasticity, helping the brain form stronger connections.
Build resilience and confidence – safe, progressive training helps you feel more capable and in control.

Michele is such a great coach, and has incredible Playlists that make you want to Groove to the Tunes!!! It is so nice to go to her new private studio in Summerfield/Oak Ridge!!!
Michele has been so helpful with posture, balance, skills getting 'down and up' from the floor!!! She is very knowledgeable about Parkinson's Disease and has helped us quite a bit.
We have a large extended family, w/active military, so not able to get to classes as much as we would like 🙂 🙂
