Here's How We Can Help

Every client starts with a complimentary strategy session to build their personal fitness roadmap.

Starting with the end in mind allows us to work backwards and figure out all the benchmarks you need to meet along the way. 

E-Motion Fitness takes the approach of starting with the big picture and breaking it down into actionable steps for you to take today. A fitness program should reflect the specific goal or goals that you are trying to achieve and the exact steps you need to take to achieve them.

Never wonder what to do in the gym or how to do it again!

We will walk you through a simple movement assessment and use that info, plus your personal goals, to create a custom plan that includes strength, mobility, stability, core work, and metabolic conditioning in a way that is right for you.

You will meet with a coach weekly who will train you on your ever-progressing program.

Boost your cardio and enhance your strength in our high energy group classes that BURN calories and BUILD lean muscle.

These classes will set your metabolism on fire in a supportive community of high fives and positivity.

We know the unique challenges women are facing in today’s world. We understand women’s struggles with diet culture (e.g. restricting calories and overeating, emotional eating, diet hopping etc.).

We are prepared to coach women in social media comparison, self-doubt, lack of confidence, guilt, shame, and body image.

At E-Motion Fitness, we will change your relationship with food by educating you on its importance as fuel versus it becoming the enemy of your fitness goals.
