Client Testimonial:
"I have been working with Emily for close to a year now and it’s the best decision I have ever made as an athlete. The growth that I have seen across the board in strength, gymnastics, and engine work is surreal. I am putting up numbers and times I never thought possible. The amount of detail and care she puts into each warm up, strength, workout, and accessory is tailored to me specifically as an athlete to test where I am, and get me to where I want to be. Together, Emily and I are tackling my weaknesses head on, while also building confidence and grit along the way.
I am beyond blessed to be coached by Emily and be an Underdog! Ready for even more big days ahead." — Carley Castura (Underdogs Athlete)
