Diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease?
Parkinson's disease is a progressive nervous system disease that slowly robs people of their ability to move and think.
Current treatments for Parkinson's disease address symptoms, including stiffness, slowness, and mood disorders, to make day-to-day life more manageable, but do nothing to halt the disease's progression.
I am passionate about helping people, especially those living with Parkinson’s, regain strength, confidence, and independence through movement.
As the founder of Fit With Sabine and a certified Rock Steady Boxing (RBS) coach (https://rocksteadyboxing.org) , I lead a Parkinson’s-specific fitness program built on purpose, energy, and community. My classes focus on improving strength, balance, coordination, and overall quality of life, while creating a supportive environment where people feel encouraged, motivated, and empowered.
Because this is more than fitness.
This is a way to fight back.
Why I Do What I Do
Working with individuals living with Parkinson’s has become my true purpose.
I’ve seen firsthand how the right kind of exercise can improve mobility, increase confidence, and bring joy back into everyday life. But even more powerful than the physical changes is the sense of community that forms.
In my classes, people don’t just train together, we laugh together, support each other, and grow stronger together.
It becomes more than a program.
It becomes a home.
TESTIMONIALS
We love Sabine’s Rock Steady Boxing for Parkinson’s class! My husband is a Parkinson’s patient and we were fortunate enough to find Sabine’s class, and we now both participate in the class together. She keeps us moving to great music and makes it fun by incorporating boxing moves, light weights, balance, core, and cardio, so we get an overall body workout! Sabine is very compassionate and caring and is passionate about keeping us healthy and modifies moves to fit all levels as well as any injuries you might have. It’s a great group and we have made some great friends!

Sabine and her class has given me the confidence to keep moving. Her patient and kind method is always reassuring. She is invested in this program and in her "clients" friends. I am so appreciative of Rock Steady and Sabine!

What a delight to have found Sabine Evans with her many years of teaching experience and her ability to motivate us in her Rock Steady Parkinson’s program. Her inspiration, energy, and concerns for all her participants are so welcome and appreciated. The program offers a range of exercises, some weights, and boxing moves that keep you moving, without getting bored. You actually feel the benefits right after the class. Not only is it a good class, but there is a wonderful connection among all the participants.

“As an elderly woman living with Parkinson’s, both my movement and processing are continually challenged. That’s why finding this space — and Sabine — has meant so much to me. The environment she has created is friendly, nurturing, and genuinely warm. It’s a place where patience and personal attention aren’t extras; they’re the foundation. Sabine meets each of us exactly where we are, offering thoughtful care while gently encouraging us to push ourselves safely. Her energy is authentic, her joy contagious, and her commitment unmistakable. I am deeply appreciative to know her and to be part of this supportive community she has created — and I hope to continue benefiting from it for years to come.”
