Emma's professional journey through wellness ....
Emma is an experienced Yoga Teacher with 600 Hours of training certifications and has a practitioner certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Emma's journey out of the corporate world began during her physical recovery while self-managing her rare condition after having her 2nd Abdominal Bypass surgery. Navigating through this process sparked her interest in studying Human Anatomy, physically mentally and spiritually. Emma then pursued training in the field of teaching Yoga, successfully receiving her 1st, 200hr Yoga Teacher certification in Ontario, Canada. Emma’s self-healing experience with the practice of yoga, developed her passion for helping others learn the fundamentals of linking mindful breathing and conscious physical movement. Emma's motto, "the practice of yoga and mindfulness has benefits to healing "a" part in all of us, if not, "many parts" of us."
Emma is a licensed Paralegal in Ontario, with experience in Immigration and Criminal Law and also has expertise working as a Banker, Financial Advising.
Emma’s "desk-job" working experience ignited her ambition to bring Yoga & Wellness into corporate office environments, facilitating Health Conscious Awareness seminars, stress management, team building and workplace yoga.
Emma’s love for travel and interest in learning more about Health and Wellness took her on a personal development quest where she lived in the jungle of Costa Rica, and devotedly trained to receive her 2nd, 200hr Yoga Teacher Training certification, enhancing her knowledge and teaching skills. Upon Emma’s return, her love for teaching, mixed with experience in surgical recovery and rare medical condition management, expanded her teaching clientele from corporate environments to specialized yoga studios, fitness clubs, and working with athletic teams to assist with injury healing and recovery.
Down the line, Emma began to face a difficult battle with adversity and had to undergo her 3rd open Abdominal Aortic Bypass surgery. In responsibility to her own recovery, she sought out on a Holistic healing quest to learn various healing techniques through Yoga Therapy, Meditation, Nutrition, and Ayurveda, in the tranquil Sacred Valley of Peru, completing her 3rd, 200HR Yoga Teacher Training.
Emma has also completed a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy certificate, helping her to combine useful skills for self-analysis and self-management while in recovery, and shares those gems in her self-created Wellness Coaching Program.
Emma is passionately involved in community building as well as youth mentorship development. Emma is an ambassador for LOLE CANADA where you can find her hosting events/workshops, in-store meet-ups and more.
