ABOUT ME

HELLO,
I’M EMILY THORNE

I’m a Canfitpro-certified trainer and group instructor from Ontario, Canada living in Houston, Texas. But I’m also a former actor and theatre nerd from small-town, northern Ontario who loves to flail and act like an idiot on camera. For me, exercise is not about striving for perfection and comparing ourselves to others. Instead, let’s flail, sweat, and look ugly AF now so we can feel and look better AFTER.
FAKE IT 'TIL YOU MAKE IT
I got into the fitness industry during my last year of theatre school. My mental health was at an all-time low as I was constantly comparing myself to others and never feeling good enough. I became certified to teach dance classes … they turned into bootcamps, then into weight-lifting classes and eventually I created a signature dance fitness class at my local studio. My mission was to create a new category in the fitness industry, one in which people are free to make mistakes and still have an amazing workout.
WRONG AND STRONG
EMKFIT started June 2020 and the growth has been phenomenal! I am excited to see the amount of people who want to start a fitness journey, or who want to feel better about themselves! Just so we're clear, I HATE burpees, mountain climbers, and don’t get me started on triceps. My goal is keep things real, honest, and, yes, ugly. You do not need to be a dancer to dance. You don’t need to be a professional athlete to work out. You do however need to feel safe and comfortable with your workouts and your environment. That is what I’m here to do.
