The Cancer Exercise Specialist® Live Workshop was developed for health and fitness professionals seeking to attain a higher level of mastery and work with cancer patients during and after cancer surgery and treatment and into survivorship. Participants will gain a complete understanding of the entire cancer process from diagnosis and treatment to reconstruction and survivorship. Our unique and individualized programming will help to improve the patient’s ability to cope with the mental and physical stress following cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Our comprehensive programming covers 26 types of cancer, as well as pediatrics, with special emphasis on breast cancer and breast reconstruction. The Cancer Exercise Training Institute has trained more health and fitness professionals worldwide to become Cancer Exercise Specialists® than any other organization. Andrea Leonard, 38-year cancer survivor, PFP 2019 Personal Trainer of the Year, author of “Essential Exercises for Breast Cancer Survivors,” NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist and Performance Enhancement Specialist, ACE Certified Personal Trainer, and President/Founder of the Cancer Exercise Training Institute began her extensive research in 1995; long before anyone had ever heard of “cancer exercise.” She spent three years working on Essential Exercises with the chiefs of breast surgery at Georgetown, George Washington, and Johns’ Hopkins University Hospital Medical Centers. Realizing there was a need to assist patients with many types of cancer, Andrea expanded her research and writing to cover a broader spectrum. She is truly a pioneer in the field of cancer and exercise and has paved the way for other organizations to follow

Business Development Mastermind Workshop Cancer Exercise Training Institute“As a Certified Fitness Professional who was diagnosed with breast cancer, I truly had no idea how I was going to recover from a double mastectomy and return to my dream career of being a trainer and to change people’s lives. I became the person that I needed through my own recovery and quickly realized I found my purpose at the intersection of purpose, pain and proficiency through my journey and finding CETI. Being a Certified Cancer Exercise Specialist has allowed me to fulfill my purpose and serve other breast cancer survivors through their recovery, taking them from surviving to thriving!” – Shannon Burrows
