SUMMARY:Pedaling for PD-YMCA Bellingham

Fast pedaling is not a cure of Parkinson’s disease but it is changing the lives of increasing numbers of participants who\, before\, had no hope beyond medication and eventually surgery to slow the progression of their disease. \nInformation Link: https://www.whatcomymca.org/pedaling-parkinsons \nYou should participate if you are:\n\nAre between 18 – 75 years\nHave been diagnosed with Idiopathic Parkinson’s Disease\nAre willing to complete and submit signed consent form and medical clearance\nAgree to periodic progress monitoring\nDo not have cardiac or pulmonary disease\, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus\, uncontrolled hypertension\, or stroke\, dementia\, other medical conditions that are contraindicative to exercise.\n\nPedaling for Parkinson’s is included in YMCA Membership.\nFor more information and to register contact Tammy Bennett\, 360-255-0490\, or tbennett@whatcomymca.org. \nOur online and in-person programs are FREE to you because of the dedication of our partners\, instructors\, and generous donors.

SUMMARY:Parkinson's Karate Club
DESCRIPTION:About the Parkinson’s Karate Club \nI have returned to practicing Karate to keep my Parkinson’s at bay. I invite others to join me. Stance\, footwork\, and balance are fundamental skills in Karate. They provide the foundation for using the whole body to block and punch.  Balance is too precious\, so I do not practice kicking.  \nForty years ago\, I was a serious student of Karate and worked my way up to Black Belt. Ultimately managing a branch Dojo for the Washington Karate Association. But things change. I got married\, went back to my original career and moved away. \nAfter my diagnosis my doctor said that rigorous exercise was the key staving off the effects of Parkinsons.  I joined the YMCA’s Pedaling for Parkinson’s and the  Rock Steady Boxing programs. Rock Steady Boxing is offered locally at Cappy’s Gym in Seattle and at the Parkinson’s Wellness Place in Snohomish. Both programs are excellent and obviously designed by people who understand the physical conditioning needs of people with Parkinsons. I was struck by how closely the boxing regime resembled basic karate\, not the flashy versions shown on television and in movies\, but fundamental karate. \nThe beauty of Karate is that once you learn the basics you can practice solo\, at home or in a park. A spin room or boxing gym is not necessary. As with all exercise programs working out with others is so much better than solo. There is a lot to be said for peer pressure. I would never have believed that I could spin for an hour.  \nThe Shoreline YMCA\, where I take my spin classes\, has agreed to let us meet in one of their exercise rooms.  The Karate Club is not a YMCA program. Like Pedaling for Parkinsons participants do not need to be Y members to participate. There is no fee. \nJoin me if you would like to explore the benefits of Karate to fight back against Parkinsons. A side benefit is learning self-defense skills. \nIf you would like to participate\, contact me. \nAllen Alston\n(206) 327-2311\nalston12@comcast.net

SUMMARY:Victory Drumming 2026
DESCRIPTION:Numerous studies have shown that all types of drumming can reduce stress\, lower blood pressure\, and enhance your immunity. Better yet\, drumming makes you happy! Drumming releases endorphins in the brain\, which are associated with general feelings of well-being and euphoria.   \nVictory Drumming will enhance the beat of the heart – the triumph of living each day with purpose – and the success of filling each day with encouraging upbeat rhythm!    \nFirst 3 Fridays of each month.\n \n2026 Sessions:\nNo class in January\nFebruary – 6\, 13\, 20\nMarch – 6\, 13\, 20\nApril –  17 (only)\nMay – 1\, 8\, 15\nJune – 5\, 12\, 19\nNo class in July\nNo class in August\nSeptember – 4\, 11\, 18\nOctober – 2\, 9\, 16\nNovember – 6\, 13\, 20\nDecember – 4\, 11\, 18 \nWhy do I enjoy drumming? The drum is like my heart beat\, like my breath\, like the wind and thunder and rain. I feel a connection to myself and to others. Magic happens. I smile as I enjoy the rhythms\, the challenge of learning\, connecting and creating and being in tune. I sense a healing element and a love that reaches into me and out into the greater universe. And mostly\, it’s just so much fun! \nOur online and in-person programs are FREE to you because of the dedication of our partners\, instructors\, and generous donors.

SUMMARY:Parkinson's Karate Club
DESCRIPTION:About the Parkinson’s Karate Club \nI have returned to practicing Karate to keep my Parkinson’s at bay. I invite others to join me. Stance\, footwork\, and balance are fundamental skills in Karate. They provide the foundation for using the whole body to block and punch.  Balance is too precious\, so I do not practice kicking.  \nForty years ago\, I was a serious student of Karate and worked my way up to Black Belt. Ultimately managing a branch Dojo for the Washington Karate Association. But things change. I got married\, went back to my original career and moved away. \nAfter my diagnosis my doctor said that rigorous exercise was the key staving off the effects of Parkinsons.  I joined the YMCA’s Pedaling for Parkinson’s and the  Rock Steady Boxing programs. Rock Steady Boxing is offered locally at Cappy’s Gym in Seattle and at the Parkinson’s Wellness Place in Snohomish. Both programs are excellent and obviously designed by people who understand the physical conditioning needs of people with Parkinsons. I was struck by how closely the boxing regime resembled basic karate\, not the flashy versions shown on television and in movies\, but fundamental karate. \nThe beauty of Karate is that once you learn the basics you can practice solo\, at home or in a park. A spin room or boxing gym is not necessary. As with all exercise programs working out with others is so much better than solo. There is a lot to be said for peer pressure. I would never have believed that I could spin for an hour.  \nThe Shoreline YMCA\, where I take my spin classes\, has agreed to let us meet in one of their exercise rooms.  The Karate Club is not a YMCA program. Like Pedaling for Parkinsons participants do not need to be Y members to participate. There is no fee. \nJoin me if you would like to explore the benefits of Karate to fight back against Parkinsons. A side benefit is learning self-defense skills. \nIf you would like to participate\, contact me. \nAllen Alston\n(206) 327-2311\nalston12@comcast.net
