Client Testimonial about Stephanie Belill:  “I am a 61 year old woman who had some specific issues I needed to work on. Brenda Canning assigned Stephanie as my trainer and I could not have been happier. She was always positive and encouraging. Stephanie was always on time and willing to give me extra if needed. I am returning to New York but will definitely use Stephanie when I return. She is a true professional but not intimidating. After working with her these past months I feel energized to continue and improve my health.”

Client Testimonial about Brenda Canning: “A great big thank you  Brenda Canning, owner of Island Fitness,  for getting me into shape and keeping me there, as I celebrate 18 years with you as my personal trainer!   Brenda’s knowledge of the body’s muscles, structure, and her infinite patience are astonishing! Knowing my many health issues and surgery history, Brenda makes sure that we work around them – not an easy task.

I am kayaking, walking several miles a day – working out three times a week with Brenda – dancing as often as possible, zip lining – traveling, swimming and  horseback riding.

It is so great to feel well, be in shape and to live my life to the fullest. My doctors gave me a dire prognosis for my future – Thanks to Brenda, I showed them – I am a SURVIVOR – at 76 years of age!”

Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) is a technique that helps people maximize the effectiveness of stretching without causing the sort of discomfort that keeps a lot of us away from it, by performing a stretch for no longer than 2-3 seconds using a rope to help assist in the stretch. These stretches provide maximum benefit and can be accomplished without opposing tension or resulting in trauma.
