Emma is such a wonderful coach and person. I joined the gym last year to aid my husband with his rehabilitation after having a stroke. I was clueless in the gym, however Emma was always happy to advise me if I had any questions. Fast forward I’d booked 6 sessions with her, I then booked an additional 12. I’m still on my journey with Emma once a week. That hour session really does fill my cup and allows me to grow in confidence. It’s also lovely to build a friendship and have a good balance of work and play throughout the session. I leave my sessions feeling proud, strong and determined thanks to Emma’s guidance and teaching.

Excellent service from Emma. Felt very supported on my fitness journey and offered me a safe space to talk about any obstacles I had. She works so hard to help her clients achieve and is such a kind hard working person who deserves success

I’ve been training with Emma for nearly six months now and the difference she’s made has been huge. From the start she’s been clear, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me progress in a way that feels achievable and sustainable. She explains things properly, not just what to do but why, which has made me far more confident in the gym.

The PT sessions themselves are enjoyable, well structured, and motivating without ever feeling intimidating. Emma has a great way of pushing you just enough while still keeping things positive and encouraging. What I’ve found especially valuable is that I can easily use what she’s taught me during my own self-led sessions each week, so the benefits go well beyond the time we train together.

Overall, Emma has helped me build consistency, confidence, and motivation to get to the gym more often. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for effective, supportive personal training.

I started working with Emma almost 4 years ago. I hated the gym having been a runner for many years.

Through Emma’s coaching, patience and encouragement. I now love the gym and the challenges I’m presented with. Would totally recommend working with Emma wherever you are on your fitness and mindfulness journey

I started having PT session with Emma in May 2025. I had been a member of gyms for over 15 years and never really took it seriously or attended regularly.
My main aim was to loose weight only 1 stone and become stronger and healthier and more comfortable and confident in a gym environment.
Emma put me a ease but equally held me accountable for my goals and health choices, she was the only PT I've ever had to really change my mindset and body to enjoy the gym and I have seen physical results after 4 months with Emma. I attend 4 classes a week now at the gym 3 with Emma and also enjoy working out at home and in the gym with a knowledge and confidence that I will keep getting stronger and better.

Emma keeps you accountable to your own goals and helps you navigate your progress which when juggling family and work commitments is an immense support. It's great to have someone by your side that helps you achieve your goals and then gently nudges you into thinking about you can exceed them!

I recently completed an 8-week boot camp with Emma, and I can honestly say it’s been a life-changing experience. From day one, Emma provided unwavering support—not just with training, but with nutrition, mindset, and accountability. Her regular check-ins, expert guidance, and genuine encouragement helped me stay focused and motivated throughout. I’ve lost a significant amount of weight and made incredible progress with my fitness, especially in running, which I never thought I’d enjoy!

Emma’s impact has extended beyond just me—she’s now training my 16-year-old son to prepare him for a career in the Navy, and my 18-year-old daughter who’s on a journey to get strong, fit, and make healthier food choices. Emma tailors her approach to each of us individually, and her ability to connect, inspire, and empower is truly special.

Emma is not just a personal trainer—she’s a mentor, a motivator, and a wonderful friend. Her passion for helping others shines through in everything she does. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Fantastic support from Emma with tailored exercises from the start. Helped me to understand the difference between exercises and which part of the body they developed.
Emma also gave me confidence to understand the various pieces of equipment and how to use them. 🏋️‍♂️

Did a 12 week bootcamp after crimbo and today I reached a weight I hadn't been for 10 years!! That wouldn't of been possible without Ems dedication, knowledge and guidance. Smashing my goals and I fully intend on returning under her wing when I am ready to maintain. 10/10

Emma definitely knows her stuff!
She has helped me understand what works for me and also not to beat myself up about things that are harder to achieve.
Advice is always free flowing and she makes a fabulous friend too 🥰

I started my fitness journey around a year ago, and Emma is a PT at the gym I attend.
Throughout these past 12 months, Emma has always been on hand to support me in the transition from my previous experience of a 'commercial' gym settings, to a more cross-fit style gym. Free weights were always a fear of mine, but through her supportive and empowering coaching style, Emma showed me how to thrive in an area I had previously never set foot in.

Emma has an extensive knowledge base, and through this she is able to tailor exercises to ensure that they not only help you reach your goals, but are adapted to your needs. An example of this was a couple of months ago, whilst I was awaiting abdominal surgery, I asked Emma (off-the-cuff) if she knew any adapted exercises that I could do, that would limit strain on my lower abdomen, whilst still working towards my goals. Without hesitation, she stopped what she was doing and took the time to demonstrate a range of exercises, and closely monitored me as I trailed them.

Regardless of whether you are a paying client of hers, or just attending the gym, Emma will always make time for you, with a smile on her face and an unwavering energy driven by her passion to equip everyone with the necessary tools to become the most strong and confident version of themselves.

If you are looking for a PT who will empower you every step of the way, building you up and pushing you to achieve things you never thought possible, than Emma and The Women's Power Project is for you!

I decided I needed to do something and get help with my nutrition, I’ve always been in the gym but knew I needed to get on track with my eating habits.
Not only as part of my package I have a personal tailor made gym programme, I have PT and nutrition advice. although I’ve been a regular gym goer, this has enabled me to get out of my comfort zone and gain masses of confidence training by myself.
My coach is amazing, with all her advice and support, and the difference I’ve found from other coaches, is she actually cares.

Emma is an amazing coach, she listens to very detail and tailors a personal programme for you. She has not only helped me build up my confidence to get back into the gym but help me drop 2 dress sizes and just look and feel amazing again.

Emma is absolutely amazing and so supportive. She understands that you have bad days and good days and tailors your training plan to suit you so no 2 plans are the same!

Honestly I wouldn’t go anywhere else xx

In the dream we live in created by the way how we built and managed our societies, our constant living in fear and in search for approval, it is difficult to connect with our true selves, to listen to our (always right) intuition, and embrace who we really are. This event and the amazing and powerful community of empowered women that joined that day, allowed mento experience a day of full connection with myself, and the time and space (that are commonly scare) to work on my personal development while feeling whole in the connection with all spiritual beings.

Joining The Women’s Power Project was the best thing I did for myself. The project has a holistic approach, focusing on all aspects of your lifestyle. This is something I have never experienced before and is absolutely fantastic. Laura is an amazing coach! Laura as well as the wonderful community have been so supportive, accepting and encouraging through my journey. Laura has been with me every step of the way, guiding and cheering me on. I still have a long way to go but I have learned so much about myself which has made me feel so empowered, confident and positive for my continuous journey of self development. I am so excited for the journey ahead with Laura and this wonderful community. I highly recommend!

I joined Laura’s group after feeling extremely anxious. I had lost weight but still felt unhappy. She is extremely knowledgeable, she made me realise it’s not just about weight, they were so many other issues that I needed to address.
I am starting to feel more confident and starting to love myself a tiny bit.
It’s about baby steps.
Laura really cares and listens.
The ladies within the group are all lovely, they do not judge and are extremely supportive.

Laura is fantastic. Her level of support, care, guidance and knowledge is outstanding. I love the Monday potent power calls as a reinforcement and boost for the week ahead. Seems to refocus me after the weekend. The topics each week just seem to be just what I’m needing to hear. Laura tailors my workouts and tweaks them as and when I need it. I have benefited so much in the past six months from Laura’s guidance. I’m excited to see what the next twelve months will bring.

The Women’s Power Project is fantastic. I have felt supported and accepted within the community from the start and this has enabled me to heal and grow. I highly recommend the membership to any woman ready to self invest to empower themselves.
