ISSA Master Trainer
I am Joel Canela, an ISSA certified Master Trainer, specializing in strength and conditioning, glute training, online coaching, health coaching, nutrition and calisthenics. My expertise is enriched by my experiences living in Madrid and traveling the world to study various classes. Featured on ABC7 NYC Calisthenics Kings, I attribute much of my unique training style to my upbringing in Washington Heights. The main reason I am passionate about fitness is that my mother had heart surgery when I was nine years old. This event profoundly impacted my view on health and fitness. Many of my family members suffer from comorbid diseases, and I am determined not to follow that path. This determination drives me to preach the importance of health to everyone I meet. I incorporate my "Movement for Life" philosophy into my classes, believing that increasing one's play span is the greatest blessing anyone can have. I currently teach boot camp classes at Dripsweat on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday at 5:15 and 6:15 PM in Washington Heights, NY, as a way to give back to my community. I also train athletes ranging from middle school to the collegiate level. My Mantra "The fear of falling is really the fear of flying, and who knows—this just might be your year."

Client Testimonials
I have been training with Canela since 2017. Canela is a great coach. He was patient at the start when I was still uncomfortable with the new workouts. Then as I progressed he started to push me more. Canela is funny, patient, kind, and strict when he needs to be. I have compact compartment syndrome in both calves and an injury in my right elbow. Canela has adapted the workouts so that I don’t feel pain but still am strengthening the muscles. While I was studying for the New York Bar, I followed a strict program created by Canela. I lost 25 pounds and I felt and looked great! During bar prep I was studying 12 hours a day and I only had 45 min to workout. Canela worked with my schedule to get me efficient workouts without compromising my muscle growth. I absolutely love working with Canela and this is why I continue to follow his guidance.

I began my training as a way to release my anxiety and constant daily stressors. The process was slow, I realized I had a lot of emotional unpacking to do and working out has helped me a lot. It’s like a form of therapy. I have days where my mind makes me sure that when I look the in the mirror, I see no change. I have slowly become much more confident in my body and I am aware of the change and progress I have made. I have learned that it’s a slow progress and that I have to be patient in order to see the progress. Having Joel as my trainer has been amazing. The vibe and the humor are a must. He keeps me in check especially when I want to give up or I feel like a can’t finish a workout, he helps me and offers encouraging words. He makes sure the workouts are done properly.
- Yessi, 28, NY
Training with Canela has been a life-changing experience for me. Over the past year, he has helped me achieve my fitness goals and significantly improved my health. Each session with him is both challenging and rewarding. Canela's motivation and encouragement keeps me pushing forward, and I love our sessions together. If you're looking for a personal trainer who will truly inspire you, Canela is the one for you!
- Amy, 29 NY
Joel literally changed my life for the better. After years of being inconsistent with the gym, Joel helped me become disciplined with my journey. I lost 20 pounds within 2 months, he helped me fall in love with the process of delayed gratification and until this day I haven’t stopped being consistent with my work outs. He taught me so much that I no longer feel awkward working out by myself or become bored with the same work out routine because I now know a variety of work outs I can do on my own, thanks to him. If you’re someone who lacks discipline and needs that extra push, I would recommend Joel 1000 times over. It’s a decision I will never regret.
