Let's Get Personal. . .

With so many different approaches to health and fitness, it can be overwhelming to know what's considered "right" and "wrong." Fitness isn't "one size fits all," what works for someone else might not work for you- and that's a good thing! That's what I'm here for. Every personal training session is customized to your needs and goals.

. . . and Intentional

Your goals are important to me. You can expect every exercise I program to have a specific intent- whether it correlates to your wants, needs or goals, there won't be a second of time wasted in the gym. You can expect science-based programming that will make you feel powerful, confident, and seen.

Here's Your Sign

Are you wanting to function better in everyday life? Do you want someone to grow WITH you and keep you accountable? Do you want someone to clear the air on all the information thrown at you regarding health and fitness? If so, here's your sign to book some sessions with me. I PROMISE it will change the game.

I'm local to Columbia, SC, and truly never want to leave. I spend my free time drinking coffee, running, reading, and spending time with loved ones/ friends. To be able to call Columbia home and have this as my job is the biggest blessing.

Let's break the stigma, together.

My goal is to teach you that exercise is such a privilege; fitness is something meant to enhance your life, not put a burden on it! I want to help break the stigma that's been created around fitness/ nutrition, because "healthy" looks different for everyone. You deserve to work with someone that strives to make sure you succeed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please email me at emmaraedefined@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question!

I want to personal train but have no experience whatsoever in the gym, what should I expect?

Expect full, undivided attention and attention to detail. You’ll communicate your goals and together we’ll work to create a plan that excels you toward them. There’s no pressure and no judgment in this environment. I’ll be there to correct your form, push you in a way that empowers you, and show you how capable you really are! Everyone starts somewhere, and I really believe that personal training is your best bet if you still consider yourself a “beginner” when it comes to the gym.

I used to work out a lot, but it’s been a while and I’m not necessarily looking for something long term. Am I able to book some sessions to just work with you on my form and technique?

Short answer, YES. Long answer, PLEASE do! Personal training sessions are completely customizable to what YOU need. Whether you’re an athlete, seasoned lifter, runner, or anything in between, you’re able to express what you’re looking for.

I want to personal train with you, but I’m not able to be in person all the time. What are my options when it comes to working with you?

Man, there are SO many!

Personal training with me could include training 2x a week in the gym with planned workouts for when you’re not training with me. It could be a couple sessions a month where I teach technique and then provide a personalized program for you to follow at a gym that’s more convenient for everyday life. There’s an option for virtual appointments/ online training! Obviously there’s things that I haven’t listed- but the possibilities are endless. I’m open to anything that makes fitness attainable for you, and your budget.

How much do you charge? How does pricing differ from place to place/ different types of training?

This will depend on the location and/or whether or not we're doing things virtually.
