Enjoy an even fuller life with fewer limits
If you’re in your 40s or 50s, and wondering why stuff that used to feel like a walk in the park–including the walk in the park–seems more challenging now, you’re probably experiencing the effects of aging (it sucks, I know!).
BUT growing older doesn't mean you have to feel old.
I bet your mind and spirit are willing (SO willing!) to do things like tend your pride-and-joy garden, take a rafting trip down the grand canyon with your family, show off your fancy footwork in dance class or hike the trail leading you to that view everyone's been raving about.
If your body is a bit more. . . ambivalent, the great news is that you can get your body on board through fitness.
And if you’re not sure where or how to start, Midlife Momentum can help.
Midlife Momentum is a custom 4 week 1:1 fitness training program, where we focus on the one core area that will make the most difference to your life.
(Don't worry, I can help you decide what the best thing to focus on is!)
In 4 weeks you can:
Stop relying on that second (or fifth!) cup of coffee to get over the mid-afternoon energy slump
Keep up with family and friends on your hikes
Toss that suitcase in the plane’s overhead bin on your next trip
Start each day feeling less like the tin man and more like Toto
Think of Midlife Momentum as a quick setup to get you up and going--making real progress in less time than you probably think it will take you to “get fit”.
Over 4 weeks, Midlife Momentum will make a noticeable difference to an area of your life.
Do you want to:
-
Dance the night away at your daughter’s wedding?
-
Play on the floor with your pets (and get back up again)?
-
Get your hands dirty tending your garden?
-
Be harder to kill?
You name it, and I’ll help you move toward it!
Emiko has helped me regain the stamina and strength for hiking I had 20 years ago. Before working with her, I was convinced that my weight was holding me back from achieving my goals. That belief was put to rest when I went on a hike that was WAY harder than the “moderate” trail I was preparing for, and I made it to the top!

STEP 1
I will ask you to fill out a questionnaire so I can learn all about what you want to be fit for right now and also what, if any, injuries and likes or dislikes you have around exercise.
We’ll also identify any roadblocks that may be getting between you and your goal (and navigate around them).
STEP 2
At the beginning of our first training session I’ll guide you through a movement assessment so I can further home-in on selecting exercises that best fit YOUR body, fitness level and goal.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
STEP 3
I’ll create a customized fitness program that will be our roadmap that meets you at your current fitness level and thoughtfully guides you to your next game-changing level.
STEP 4
We’ll meet twice a week for 4 weeks on Zoom for 1 hour 1:1 training sessions where I will coach and support you as you make progress toward your meaningful fitness goal.
You'll leave each session feeling more energized and confident.
This is NOT a 30 day challenge that abruptly ends and leaves you wondering what to do next.
Instead, this is a personalized momentum-creating plan designed to help you achieve your short-term goals AND, most importantly, lay the foundation for creating the long-term fitness that means you can keep enjoying the activities that are important to you.
By the end of our 4 weeks together, you will feel more energized, and have made noticeable progress towards the fitness goals you’ve been meaning to start “some day”.
l’ll also share my recommendations on how to continue making progress on your own.
I'm Emiko (she/her) - your Personal Trainer and Fellow Midlifer
I’m a late bloomer. I learned how to swim and joined a masters swim team at 25, started pole dancing at 37, became a fitness trainer at 41 and hired a sprint coach at 51. At various points I received compliments(?) that went something like “that’s really impressive for someone your age”. And I always found it weird.
Because my age has never had anything to do with why I was drawn to any these activities–that was all ME. The same curiosity and pursuit of fun that compelled me as a child to play tag with my friends or learn a new trick on the uneven bars at recess hasn’t gone anywhere. That 5 year old playful me still lives in this 52 year old body!
This is what I help you tap into. Whatever it is that gets you out of bed in the morning, that blissfully makes you lose track of time or makes you feel most alive is what we will create even more of in your life--and help you enjoy it for even longer--through fitness.
It’s never too late to bloom.
I've helped people who have never engaged with formal exercise before, executives who spend hours at their desk and in meetings, healthcare professionals who are on their feet all day, retired folks who want to remain active and even former Division 1 athletes get fit and stay fit for the activities they want to enjoy now and well into the future.
I’d love to help you make your midlife your best life, too.

I ended up paddling for a long time with no back pain! . . .and I was thinking ‘oh this is really working! The stuff I’m doing with Emiko is, like, really working!!' . . .having the ability to do an activity I love pain-free is such a great feeling.

Emiko is experienced, knowledgeable and can easily work within the parameters of my weaknesses and old injuries. In just 4 weeks, I grew stronger and experienced no pain or irritations. I especially notice the difference in the strength of my core.
