The Stylish Powerhouse of Rock Steady Boxing VC | LA
With her unmistakable New York flair and decades of boxing experience, Coach Yvette Israel brings a unique blend of grit, glamour, and humor to Rock Steady Boxing VC | LA. From grungy boxing gyms to the chic boutiques of 5th Avenue—and don’t forget the iconic pastrami sandwiches at Katz’s Deli—Yvette’s vibrant personality is as bold as her punch combinations.
Yvette began her boxing journey training with none other than Billy Blanks, and while she’ll keep the year a mystery, her expertise speaks volumes. Over her 10+ years of Rock Steady Boxing coaching, Yvette has inspired countless boxers, including a Nun, a Rabbi, and a Priest (yes, that really happened). Her dedication, compassion, and humor make her a standout coach—and her boxers often joke she’s got a guaranteed ticket to heaven.
When she’s not designing innovative boxing drills or motivating her classes to new heights, Yvette spends her time exploring Trader Joe’s for culinary treasures, walking her adorable rescue pup, Sophi-A, or scouting the latest fashion finds at Nordstrom. A lover of all things French—especially poodles—and a connoisseur of pearls, Yvette’s style is as timeless as her commitment to the Rock Steady mission.
Yvette’s Motto: Health is Wealth
“Health is Wealth is my motto, and it has paid off generously,” says Yvette. “I love working out on the heavy bag and creating new drills for class. The best thing is seeing the boxers overcome challenges—becoming more confident and getting stronger every day. Their newfound hope and happiness fills me with immeasurable joy!”
Yvette’s passion for fitness and her unwavering support of the Rock Steady Boxing community are truly inspiring. She thrives on helping individuals with Parkinson’s disease rediscover their strength, confidence, and joy. Her creative drills and positive energy keep boxers engaged, motivated, and always looking forward to the next class.
Why Coach Yvette Stands Out
Coach Yvette Israel is more than a boxing coach—she’s a role model, a motivator, and a cherished part of the Rock Steady Boxing VC | LA family. Her unique ability to blend high-energy workouts with genuine care and encouragement has helped countless boxers achieve their personal bests. Whether you’re looking to join a class or simply searching for inspiration, Yvette is a shining example of what it means to ROCK STEADY BOXING VC | LA.
