Emily and I have been working together for over a year and a half now. Together, we have gone through two off seasons and we’re almost halfway through my second competition prep. Throughout this time, Emily has taught me how to grow my muscles, how to nourish and listen to my body, and most importantly, how to enjoy each step of the process and love my body each step of the way. I have learned many life skills while working with Emily and by competing; such as discipline, hard work, and even proper time management. Emily’s positive attitude and love of the sport can’t help but rub off on you. She has such a happy spirit that draws people to her, and makes the worst of situations (like hundreds of jump squats and endless lunges) seem like the funnest thing you could do on a Friday night. Emily is always the first one to remind me when I am getting too serious, or lost in my own mind that competing in bodybuilding competitions is supposed to be fun. She has always made sure that I am enjoying what I am doing, that I’m not killing myself doing multiple hours of cardio a day or ever eating a dangerously low amount of calories. Her priority is your health first. Which, unfortunately, isn’t always the case in the bodybuilding industry. Emily and I have become more than just coach and client, we have become great friends during this journey and I am so lucky to have her, and you would be too.

When Emily asked me to write a testimonial I was at a loss for words, how can I sum up all of her into a small paragraph? Emily is an amazing trainer and coach. She is one of the most thoughtful and compassionate trainers I have met. When I had started training with Emily we were prepping for my 3 bikini competition. My goals as always is to keep improving with each show and bring the best package of myself to the stage. When I trained with Emily she dedicated 100% of her self to support, coach and mentor me. I have never met another trainer like her who is so devoted to her clients. She truly taught me what it was like to train like a bodybuilder and help develop me to the athletic level I was wanting all while ensuring my health and wellbeing were top priorities. Would I recommend her to others, in a heart beat!
