Training to support your real life

Who we are

We’re ISL Coaching, an Islington based personal training studio founded by Ele and James.

We help people build real world strength that fits into everyday life.

Our approach is simple: supportive, expert coaching with a strong sense of community.

We offer bespoke 1:1 personal training, small group classes, personalised online coaching, and online team training, all designed to help you move well and build confidence in your body, so the strength you develop supports you both in your workouts and in real life.

We believe strong doesn’t have one look. It’s about feeling capable in your body and supported every step of the way..

Our team

Ele Breitmeyer

Ele is a personal trainer with a passion for helping people feel stronger, more confident, and more capable in their bodies. Her approach is grounded in real life, focusing on sustainable habits rather than extremes.

Having experienced first-hand the impact of restrictive diets, punishing routines, and poor body image, Ele is committed to helping clients avoid those roadblocks. She believes training should build confidence, not take away from it.

Ele specialises in 1:1 coaching, pre- and post-natal training, and online coaching. Her work centres on education, support, and helping people feel good in both their bodies and their day-to-day lives, because fitness is about far more than how we look.

James Feeney

James is a personal trainer with over 12 years of experience, supporting people to feel confident, capable, and comfortable in the gym. He works with busy professionals and busy parents across a wide range of goals, from building strength and muscle to returning to training after injury.

Alongside 1:1 coaching, James supports more specific rehabilitation-focused goals, as well as specialist boxing coaching, drawing on 15 years of experience training and competing as an amateur boxer.

James’ approach focuses on both the physical and mental benefits of training, helping clients build skill, resilience, and confidence that carries beyond the gym.
