Emmy was born in Tokyo, Japan, and spent the first half of her life there before moving to Canada. She discovered her love for yoga at 15, though teaching wasn’t part of her plan. After university, her passion for travel led her to work as a cabin crew member with Emirates, before eventually moving into the corporate world.

 

Yoga remained a constant in her life, and she completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training, leaving the corporate sector to follow her true calling. This led her to Physique 57 in Dubai, where she began teaching Barre and deepened her love for mindful, strength-based movement.

 

Since becoming a mother, Emmy has focused on supporting women through all stages of life, with a special interest in prenatal yoga.
