Emma's passion and focus has always been around helping others achieve their goals in health and wellness. She knows the power of strong, healthy bodies, and equally strong minds and the difference that can make to people’s lives and wants to share that with the world.
Emma is a born sportswoman, who completed in swimming, gymnastics, basketball and little athletics. However, Emma’s true calling was swimming. Competing from a young age, she broke onto the national scene in 1996 by competing in the Commonwealth Games Trials as a 13 year old. Emma was part of the Australian and International Swimming Scene for over 8 years, competing in the 2000 Olympic Trials, Pan Pacific Games, and National, State and Gippsland Championships, where she was a multi gold medalist and record holder, with records holding 20 years.
At 21 years old, Emma gave up swimming to focus on her studies and her family. In 2004 Emma completed a bachelors degree in Nursing, and has worked in some of Melbourne’s major hospitals, Emergency Departments and Intensive Care Units. Instead of going on to study traditional medicine, Emma went on to study Chinese Medicine, Mineral Therapy and later on studied Fitness with the Australian Institute of Fitness.
In 2008 after her daughter was born, Emma created Emma K Health which offered mothers post natal fitness, nutrition planning, and exercise programming, and since has helped thousands of women improve their health and fitness with her Empower programs. Emma soon added to her little family with two sons, and in 2015 took up Martial Arts in the form of Aikido and then Wing Chun Kung Fu. Realising its potential to help women and her children, Emma has incorporated self defence into her Empower programs, forming a holistic and empowering approach to health, fitness and self self defence.
'My life's purpose was known from a very early age. I care deeply about the wellbeing of others and i will do everything in my power to support and encourage their success.'
