Emma complete her Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology in 2018, during which she grew more and more interested in the intricacies of the human body. From her athletic background as a competitive swimmer, varsity rower (for the Vikes), runner, and triathlete, Emma has a deep appreciation and understanding of the power of physical activity for both the mind and body. She believes that movement is for everybody, and with the right help, anyone can incorporate a safe and healthy activity regimen into their daily life.
Currently, Emma is working with the Gordon Head Recreation Centre location as a full time Kinesiologist, helping clients improve their strength, balance and motor control. Emma has a varied background working as a swim instructor, lifeguard and team leader at Gordon Head Rec Center for almost 10 years, as well as working and volunteering with children, teens, and adults with disabilities. She feels confident in her ability to adapt different activities to meet the needs of the client. She strives to foster a welcoming, friendly atmosphere, whether it’s via phone/email or in the community.
Emma also works as a fitness instructor at a number of gyms around Victoria, mostly Oak Bay Fitness, teaching indoor cycling and functional fit classes. In her spare time, Emma can usually be found pursuing her own athletic goals, teaching various fitness classes, knitting, or reading among a number of activities.
