Pioda

Meet Sixto.
 
At 53 years old, Sixto came to Pioda looking for a way to restore the damage done by a stroke, affecting his right side.
 
Despite his unfortunate circumstances, Sixto’s spirit has never faltered. Working closely with Exercise Physiologist Steven Rocca since September, he completes 4 sessions per week working on fine gross motor skill development, full-body strength and endurance, and coordination and motor patterning.
 
As a result of his motivation, commitment, and hard work, Sixto’s latest outcome measures showed phenomenal progress in only 3 months, including:
• Improvements on all strength-endurance measures (upper body, lower body, and core)
• Improvements in timed fine gross motor skill tests
• A complete 30-second bicep curl test (where range previously prevented a single bicep curl)
• Improved single leg balance
With his dedication to his rehab, there’s no telling what Sixto can achieve. We’re excited for him to continue making leaps and bounds with Pioda!

We are proud to announce that Pioda will be back with the Keilor Women’s Team for the NPLW 2026 season. Excited for what’s ahead — let’s make it one to remember. ⚽️
