Join 2017 & 2018 American Ninja Warrior contestant Jimmy Choi for a 50 minute workout at Title Boxing Club.
Diagnosed in 2003 with Young Onset Parkinson Disease, Jimmy Choi went into denial and "did nothing" for the next 7-8 years to manage his symptoms. In 2010, he could only walk with the aid of a cane and fell while carrying his young son. Since then, Jimmy has participated in multiple clinical trials to further research for better treatments and hopefully, a cure for PD. Physical therapy led him to running and other activities that helped both his physical and mental PD symptoms. He joined Team Fox in 2012, and ran in his first marathon; and, he hasn't stopped since! In the summer of 2017 and 2018, he took on a new challenge and competed as an American Ninja Warrior! He showed the world that Parkinson’s will not stop him and inspired many more to not let a diagnosis define you.
*Please arrive 10 minutes early for this event
