REGISTRATION COMING IN JUNE
321 Knockout is an exciting new community fitness challenge bringing together individuals with Down syndrome, caregivers, siblings, and community members for a morning of movement, fun, inclusion, and connection. All abilities are welcome to participate.
Why 321?
321 represents Trisomy 21 — Down syndrome.
🧬Three copies of the 21st chromosome.
💪One powerful community.
🥊Punches for Possibilities.
✨Knocking Out Barriers.
Access to consistent movement, strength-building, and wellness opportunities is especially important for lifelong health for individuals with Down syndrome. Differences such as low muscle tone, maintaining a healthy weight, and increased risk for certain health conditions mean that structured, supportive fitness programs can play a critical role in promoting strength, coordination, mental health, and overall well-being. Intentional programs that prioritize accessibility, belonging, and peer connection help individuals stay active, build confidence, and develop healthy habits that support long-term wellness.

- Strengthen families and community connections through accessible, supportive environments
Together, we are building health, confidence, and belonging — one punch at a time.
