Testimonials
‘The spirit and support of this program
helped me feel normal again, and not
only normal, but blessed.’– Kelley A.,
breast cancer survivor
‘When cancer strikes it is a loss of
control … loss of confidence in your
body … loss of so many things. With
exercise you are able to take back your
strength … your energy … your life.
That is what Cancerfit has done for
me.’– Robin H., breast cancer survivor
‘Gratefulness sums it up. It could be
intimidating for us cancer survivors to
work out alone with bald heads, weak
bodies, or the pallor on some of our
faces. But there is strength in doing
it together and I will remember the
friendships I made in this program. I
am blessed to have been involved in
this program.’– Gayle T., kidney cancer
survivor

BootCamp
This fitness class utilizes both outdoor
and indoor spaces, and mixes traditional
calisthenic and body weight exercises with
interval training and strength training.
While there are a variety of styles of exercise, most exercises are designed in a way
that pushes the participants harder than
they would push themselves and, in that
way, resembles a military boot camp.
