This March, the BC Epilepsy Society has partnered with Rumble Boxing to break the stigma around epilepsy. Each studio will be hosting a fifty minute charity class which will include a workout, a gift bag, and post class eats and drinks.
Join us for one or both of our events happening March 17th (5:00 PM at Rumble Boxing Mount Pleasant) and March 24th (7:20 PM at Rumble Boxing Yaletown).
Space is limited so email [email protected] to get on the list now before registration opens to the general public. You can also register through the MINDBODY app or the Rumble Boxing Inc. app where registration opens one week before class.
No previous experience is necessary and beginners are welcome!
Proceeds from these two events will go towards the BC Epilepsy Society and will help us continue to provide information, advocacy, and support to the over 50,000 people living with epilepsy in BC. Thank you for your support!
If you can’t attend the class but would still like to support our cause, you can donate using the form below:
What is “Epilepsy”?: Epilepsy is a medical condition that causes recurring seizures. A seizure is a sudden, brief and temporary disturbance of electrical activity in the brain. There are over 40 different types of seizures that can alter consciousness, movement, sensation, speech, awareness, and behaviour.
What is “Rumble Boxing”?: Rumble Boxing is a fifty minute “fight club meets night club” high-intensity workout. Guests hit to the beat of the music as they bond together as a team. Canadian born, Rumble Boxing is accessible to four different locations, including: Yaletown (Vancouver), Mount Pleasant (Vancouver), 17th Ave. (Calgary), Country Hills (Calgary) and Yorkville (Toronto/Opening Soon).
