Hi, my name is Emily and I am a fully qualified and insured Personal Trainer living in Caversham Heights. I have my own gym at home including the squat rack, bench press, dumbbells, kettlebells, resistance bands and chin up bar.

I am passionate about exercising and the benefits it has not only on our physical health but also the huge positive impact it has on our mental health.

I worked for many years as a criminal lawyer in London and although I loved my job, once I had my second child found the challenges of commuting and childcare too much and made the move to become a stay at home mum. After my third child in 2016 and when I found the time I got back to my love of running and strength training.

I qualified as a Personal Trainer and converted our garage into a gym and have never looked back! My clients are a real mix of young, old, men and women. There is no dispute that exercising in the right way can help us lose weight and also strengthen and condition our muscles to become stronger and more efficient. Mentally the effect of exercise is so powerful that it can reduce stress levels, increase self esteem, reduce anxiety levels and is even prescribed by some GPs to help combat mild depression.

I love to help others reach their goals and to make people realise that exercising does not have to be something you hate or dread doing, but that it can be fun and enjoyable and most importantly get the results you are looking for.
