Emma Hooker

Hey I’m Coach Em! My journey has been so unique, so full of ups and downs, and I never thought this life would be possible for me. But I am right in the middle of everything I ever hoped and dreamt for.

In October 2012, I became severely sick. I was transported to the critical care unit by ambulance and diagnosed with severe pneumonia. I was intubated right away and stayed in hospital for 3 weeks. I was diagnosed with an auto immune disease called vasculitis, causing severe bleeding in my kidneys and lungs. I was put on heavy medications and chemotherapy. In 3 years, I had gained 150 pounds, lost a lot of my hair, and was in and out of the hospital.

I lived like this for 8 years. I tried to lose weight off and on but I could never stick to anything. A life sentence that seemed inescapable, leaving me feeling like a mere shell of existence, watching my life and dreams fade away.

September 2020, at 330lbs I broke my foot and found myself going around a grocery store in an electric scooter. I was too heavy to hold myself up on crutches. That’s when I finally decided enough was enough. I started doing small workouts in my basement and started eating better. I showed up everyday, proving myself wrong and everyone else who doubted me.

August of 2021, I went to my doctor for the first time since losing weight, I had lost 120 pounds in 11 months. She told me that my disease was in full remission, I was in perfect health, and was told I could come off ALL of my medications. January 2022, I had lost 150 pounds. I unveiled my fighter’s heart, so I decided I wanted to become a boxer and in July 2022, I had my first boxing tournament and took home gold in my weight category.

When asked what my dream life would be 3 years ago, I would’ve said material things. Ask me today? This is my dream life. I am living out every adventure that I couldn’t do when I was 330 pounds. I’m doing this for old Emma, who never thought there would be a way out. I am savouring the freedom denied to me when I was at my heaviest.

I am sharing my story with hundreds of thousands of people and now get to work alongside those who want to start and continue on their own journeys. It’s about reaching that one person, showing them that it’s possible. Reminding them that it is never too late and you are never too far gone. Your dreams are possible. You are so strong and I’m here to show you just how capable you are!

Coach Paige

Hey y’all, Coach Paige here!

My journey started out trying to find myself again after having my son, but that quickly turned into so much more. I lost over 80lbs but more importantly it is what I gained. I gained my spark back, I gained strength, I gained confidence, and the ability to do things I couldn’t have even imagined – but the best thing I gained was a passion to show others that they too can take control of their life and find their way back to themselves. I became a certified personal trainer and the rest was history. Working on Coach Em’s team has been the biggest blessing, I love being a cheerleader to my clients and also helping them navigate the tough times. Showing them that they don’t have to miss out on life or do anything extreme to hit their goals and that they don’t have to do this alone anymore. I am so lucky to be part of such an incredible team of like minded women and connect with all the amazing clients we get to work with. 

Some fun facts about me: I’m 26 and my favorite colors are pink & purple. In my spare time I love to hike, spend time with family, go on adventures, or unwind with a good book. I try to fuel my body well most of the time to feel my best, but I definitely love a good pizza night or some chocolate too. All about that moderation

Coach Kayla

Hi! I’m Coach Kayla, I am a momma of 2 busy girls, a Certified Personal Trainer and a Respiratory Therapist! Helping others has always brought me so much joy whether it’s my kids, clients, or my patients. My favorite food is protein oats, you can catch me having it any time of the day in multiple different ways. I love cheering on others, supporting them, lifting them up and helping them reach their full potential. I am very passionate that we need to stop putting ourselves on the back burner when it comes to our health. How are we supposed to pour into all these other areas of our lives if our own cup runs dry?  You matter, your health Matters, and I want nothing more than to help others believe that and to help people FEEL good!  For so long I didn’t think I was capable, and deserving of this healthier and hopefully longer life. Being part of the Get Fit with Coach Emma squad lights my fire because I get to be a part of so many life changing journeys, connect with some amazing people and watch my clients put in HARD work to finally recognize they are capable and deserving of so much more. If cauliflower can somehow be pizza, we can do ANYTHING.

Certified Personal Trainer

Coach Kylie

My name is Kylie, I’m 27 years old and live in Canada.  I’m a full time stay at home mom to my 3 kids, 5 and under.  Mid 2020, I was in the trenches. Bad postpartum depression, bad anxiety and I was severely overweight. I started my weight loss journey by the end of 2020, hired my first coach, and lost about 50lbs! Then I was pregnant with my third child, and essentially had to restart my weight loss journey after my pregnancy was over because working out was limited in my high-risk pregnancy and not being able to workout mentally destroyed me and I gained almost everything back. Thankfully, I knew what I had to do as soon as I was able to. Since March 2022, I have lost 75lbs – gained so much confidence – so much muscle – and so much knowledge.  I’m a certified personal trainer, I have my certifications in weight loss management, online coaching and nutrition! I can’t wait to get started with you and help YOU on your own personal journey! I’ll be your #1 fan throughout the whole process

Certified Personal Trainer

Coach Rachel

Hi everyone – my name is Rachel! Growing up, I struggled with my weight and body image, which was coupled with depression and anxiety. Eventually I hit my rock bottom and knew I needed to make a change. I learned how to enjoy movement and how to cook healthy, delicious foods. These small efforts translated into a major weight loss. Not only did I learn to nourish my body, but I also learned to nourish my mind and soul along the way. Flash forward to today, I am a NASM certified personal trainer and am attending Colorado State University to get my master’s degree in food science & nutrition. My goal is to become a dietitian and leverage my passions for nutrition, fitness, and mental health to guide others into a healthy lifestyle.

I’m so grateful to have joined Emma’s team as an assistant coach!

I’m excited to connect with all the amazing clients and to use my experience and knowledge to give others the compassion, support, and tough love that my younger self needed.

Certified Personal Trainer

Coach Taylor

A little about me. I grew up overweight as a kid and spent the majority of my 20s obese, struggling with severe anxiety and binge eating; then adding in nasty postpartum depression for a really hard season in my life. After hitting rock bottom, I finally was able to take control of my life in 2020 and lose 130 pounds. I dived deep into learning how to care for my body and health, because I desperately wanted to create a better life. After my weight-loss, I found a passion for lifting and the way it made me feel empowered for the first time in my life. Finding my place in the gym has really helped me reconnect with a version of myself that I thought had been lost.

The rest is really history, my past experiences lead me exactly to where I am and I have a passion to help others find their joy on their own journeys as well. We’re always stronger together and I’m so thrilled to be apart of the team.
