Donna Clervi
FOUNDER & ROCK STEADY BOXING COACH
As a 30+ year veteran of the healthcare industry, I have dedicated my career to creating quality of life initiatives for the workplace, to healthcare systems, & in the lives of everyday people.
I now use that experience to support, encourage and train people struggling with Parkinson’s. This is a terrible, debilitating disease with no cure, and the best way to minimize the effects of the illness is to keep fighting. Rock Steady Boxing is a proven program that teaches our boxers to fight back through forced intense exercise gaining strength, mobility, balance, focus, and so much more.
Our mission here at The Parkinson’s Development Center is to create a safe space where fighters and their families can find the resources and support necessary to live a healthier and happier life.
