Rock Steady Coach
Hi there! My name is Calissa Schneider. I graduated from UW-Oshkosh in 2014 with a Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology-Exercise Science. In time, I found myself as the Fitness Manager for a retirement home in Appleton where I learned a lot about Parkinson's disease. As someone who cannot sit still (ask my parents, it's been a thing my whole life), I cannot imagine having a body that does not do what I want it to do! With that drive, I become passionate about helping people with movement disorders. Since 2018, I have accepted any opportunity or event to educate and train myself in all things PD. I am a PWR! Moves Instructor, Brain Health Trainer, and a Rock Steady Boxing Coach. I am currently a Senior Manager at PMD Alliance, a nationwide Parkinson's non-profit that focuses on bringing community, connection, and resources to wherever you are on your PD journey. I am so very excited to work with you and the other RSB coaches to challenge you each day and show you that YOU CAN fight back against PD.
