1-on-1 Coaching
FOR YOUR HEALTH & FITNESS
1-on-1 Coaching
Build the capacity to do more of what matters to you.
You may be returning from an injury, navigating persistent pain, preparing for a new challenge, or simply realizing that your current approach is no longer working.
You don’t need another generic workout plan or someone telling you to push harder. You need a clear understanding of where you are, what is getting in the way, and what to focus on next.
My coaching begins with a thorough assessment of your goals, training history, current capacity, and the demands of the life and activities you want to pursue. We’ll look at qualities such as mobility, strength balance, movement control, recovery, and overall tolerance—then use what we learn to build a plan with a clear purpose.
I CAN HELP YOU
- Return to activities you’ve been avoiding or missing
- Build strength that carries over to everyday life, recreation, and sport
- Improve your capacity without repeatedly exceeding what your body can recover from
- Understand why exercises are included and how to adjust them
- Respond to pain or setbacks without abandoning your goals
- Develop a more sustainable relationship with training, food, recovery, and your body
- Make informed decisions instead of depending on someone else to make every decision for you
- Build the skills and confidence to manage your fitness more independently over time
My best years are in front of me
A flare up of serious sciatic pain, the result of hypermobility, made even putting pants and socks on difficult. Physical therapy gave me a foundation for recovery, but I was afraid I might be limited for the rest of my life. I knew I needed to continue strengthening and luckily found Emily. After meeting with Emily, I was instantly impressed by how knowledgeable and helpful she was. I felt understood, even with my hypermobility. When we started, I was content simply to be active, but she has helped me to address my specific underlying limitations and move further in strength than I ever have. She has gone well above my expectations. I can tell that she genuinely cares. On top of that, our sessions are fun and she's just a good person. I feel comfortable asking questions and she is great at helping me understand why we're doing what we're doing. Now I feel very optimistic that my best years are in front of me, and I'm looking forward to a long future of unrestricted, pain-free, and confident movement. If I hear anyone say they are experiencing limited movement or weakness and they think it's not worth doing anything about, I remind them that it's not going to get any better on its own, and say, "Emily can help you with that!"

During your free consultation, we’ll talk through what you want to be able to do, what you’ve already tried, and what may be limiting your progress. If we’re a good fit, I’ll explain how I would approach your coaching and create an individualized plan that considers your goals, learning style, schedule, and available resources.

I've been so pleased with the progress we've made!
"After having a pinched nerve last fall, the strength and mobility of my left leg was considerably compromised, to the point that simply walking the dog was irritating, let alone climbing or other activities. Suffering an injury is never fun, but after enough time passes and the usual rest and self care isn't leading to improvement, you start to wonder if the problem will ever be fixed. I really appreciate Emily's data-driven approach, attention to detail and the way that she customizes her program to the client. After our first in person meeting, I was fairly confident that Emily was the right choice. The questions she asked and the way she explained her methodical approach were very encouraging. But it was our first session where it all came together and I knew this would work. I've been so pleased with the progress we've made. In fact, I'm sure we've improved on my pre-injury state. Do not hesitate to work with Emily! Not only is she thorough and knowledgeable on the physical aspects of training, she is very personable and encouraging, which makes the sessions fun."

I feel incredibly confident!
"Emily not only puts together really intelligent workouts, but they’re also effective, fun, and I’m learning more about the body. She’s not the type of coach that just says, “do this because I said so”, she takes the time to fully explain things, answer questions, and is incredibly encouraging and supportive. It’s been so cool to see myself lifting heavier, and I feel incredibly confident about it too. She’s customized a program completely for my needs and goals. It’s really cool to work with someone who cares so much about you and how you’re doing physically, mentally, emotionally. Not to mention, she’s just a fun person to be around, her energy is so good, and I really look forward to my lift with her each week. I’ve seen improvements in my climbing, my yoga practice, and just my overall strength and well being
I couldn’t ask for a better coach ❤️"

Build a Life With More Options
Pain, injury, uncertainty, and changing circumstances can gradually shrink what you feel comfortable doing.
You stop signing up for the race. You choose the easier trail. You avoid the climbing trip, hesitate before joining the game, or assume an activity is simply no longer for you.
Sometimes adjusting the plan is the right decision. But adapting temporarily is different from permanently giving up something that matters to you.
My role is to help you understand what currently limits you, determine what can be changed, and build the capacity required for the activities you want in your life. We’ll approach that process with curiosity, clear priorities, and a plan that responds to evidence—not fear, guesswork, or arbitrary rules about what you “should” be able to do.
The goal isn’t to pretend limitations don’t exist. It’s to expand your options so you can make choices based on what you value, not simply what your body feels capable of today.
