We’re so proud of everyone who shows up, works hard, and supports one another. If you have been absent from participation, see this as an opportunity to get started again. Exercise is medicine.

Take a moment to watch and celebrate what you’re all a part of!

Thirty years ago, Mrs. Hand challenged Mr. Hand to give back to the community. He then started Joe Hand Boxing Gym and computer lab at Howard and Thompson streets. From there, they moved down to South Philly and back to North Philly to our present location in Feasterville. Many young kids walked in those doors, and many became champions. To this day, we still give back with classes for all people. This is half of our teen class. Mr. and Mrs. Hand are smiling down. Happy 30th, and we are not going anywhere because "The Best Is Yet To Come".

30 years of impact🥊

We were so grateful to be part of The Parkinson Council’s Annual- Walk to Stamp Out Parkinson’s this year at the Navy Yard. A huge thank-you to the organizers for letting the Joe Hand Gym have a presence at such a meaningful event! 💙

It was inspiring to see so many individuals, families, and supporters come together to raise awareness and funds for people living with Parkinson’s. Events like this remind us of the strength of community and the power of hope.
