Meet Your Trainers
Heather Cannon
I am Heather Cannon owner/Instructor of Cannon Fitness. I have two beautiful children Izzy 11 and Peyton 9. Prior to having children I was a biology and Anatomy/Physiology secondary teacher and Group Exercise instructor for 5 years. I am an AFAA Certified Personal Trainer and Group Exercise Instructor and have my Masters of Science in Secondary Education. I postponed my teaching career to stay at home with my children. I started Cannon Fitness in the Fall of 2012. I read this quote about a year ago, “It is a shame for a women to grow old without ever seeing the strength & beauty of which her body is capable of.” This quote inspired me to start my small group training. I want each woman who enters my program to understand that she is capable of anything. She is capable of becoming strong, getting in the best shape of her life, and anything she sets her mind to. Cannon Fitness has helped me reach more women. I can’t wait for its future as it is just beginning and I have a lot of goals for this program! Cannon Fitness wants each women to feel the beauty, power, and strength that they possess.
Katey Bender
My name is Katey Bender and I’m excited and honored to be a part of the amazing Cannon Fitness team! I have lived in Reno all my life and love this area, with all of the fun it has to offer throughout all four of its beautiful seasons! I am the proud wife to Justin and mother to Brooke and Brynn. As a family, we love to go outside, stay busy and keep active with fun things to do. Consistent exercise has been a part of my life since college, but it wasn’t until I came across the empowering and positive values of the women at Cannon Fitness, that I found true balance and fulfillment within my own overall health and well-being. It has helped me become physically, emotionally and, most importantly, mentally stronger! Receiving my Group Fitness Instructor Certification through AFAA in August of 2015 was a natural step towards achieving my fitness goals. I truly appreciate the knowledge I have gained from my experiences with Cannon Fitness and am excited to share it with all of the women in my life.
