About Emma Bord Personal Trainer
I have worked as a Personal Trainer for over 15 years, working with a huge variety of clients, both male and female, across all ages and abilities. My training methods include HIIT and cardio-based workouts, mat and Reformer Pilates, boxing, weight training, core strengthening and conditioning.
I am also fully qualified in Pre and Post Natal training, an area I have become particularly passionate about. As a mum of three myself, I understand first-hand the changes women experience through pregnancy, birth and beyond, and the importance of safely rebuilding strength and confidence postpartum.
One of the biggest focuses of my work is the connection between mind and body. For me, exercise is about so much more than physical fitness. I feel strongly about the positive impact movement can have on our mental health, confidence and overall wellbeing.
My experience working with women through pregnancy and motherhood also led me to write my debut book, MUM POWER, a practical and supportive guide designed to help women navigate their fitness and wellbeing journey after having a baby.
From safely returning to exercise, rebuilding core and pelvic-floor strength and getting back to running, to nutrition, confidence, mental wellbeing, mum guilt and finding time for yourself, MUM POWER looks at the bigger picture of postnatal recovery and helps women move forwards in a way that feels right for them.
Alongside my training, I offer nutritional advice and healthy eating plans to help my clients build a healthy, balanced lifestyle, both physically and mentally. I work from my studios in Edgware and Bushey, as well as offering online group classes and an on-demand workout library, making it easier to fit movement around real life.
Ultimately, my aim is to make training challenging, enjoyable and something that leaves you feeling stronger and better than when you started.

Personal Training and Doubles
Personal Training sessions are tailored to an individual's needs, preferences and intentions, working on specific programmes to help them achieve their goals. There is also the option of partnering up with a friend to share the sessions. I am able to provide nutritional and lifestyle tips and once again there is the option of virtual training if you are not local or the covid situation continues.
Group Classes
At the moment these are all online due to the current situation however I have been able to run a full timetable of classes through this means and am able to see everyone and correct/advance or adjust workouts according to everyone involved. I run Body Conditioning, HIIT and Pilates Classes for all levels that can be done from the comfort of your own home. I am currently working on an online platform to provide weekly programmes and videos to allow more flexibility to clients to train from their own homes in their own time.
Pre & Post Natal
I am passionate about helping mums to be and new mums feel strong and empowered through pregnancy and beyond. Having had three children I feel professionally equipped to guide ladies on an amazing healthy journey and fully appreciate the benefits of exercise through this time both physically and mentally. I offer both Personal Training and group classes for Pre and Post Natal girls.
Nutrition & Healthy Living Kickstarter
Exercise and healthy eating work in conjunction which is why I place much emphasis on diet. I offer nutritional plans, healthy eating ideas and advice and do's and don'ts when it comes to food alongside my fitness training. I also run a Healthy Living Kickstarter which is an 8 week plan to refocus one's attention on making healthy choices and lifestyle practises without the mention of a 'diet'.
‘Having not exercised in 10 years I was extremely nervous about starting an exercise regime. However I needn't have been. Emma has completely changed my attitude towards exercise and in the 9 months I have been seeing her I have seen my fitness levels soar and my confidence increase so much so that i am running a 10k this summer. Emma is encouraging and humorous and the perfect PT, - she knows just what to say and do.... I genuinely look forward to my sessions with her and hate it if I ever have to miss a week.’

Testimonials
After having a baby by c-section my body was just not the same. I started classes with Emma and felt the results so quickly. After a few weeks I noticed the difference and was certainly much fitter and more toned. I appreciated the personal attention and alternative exercises she gave me during the class as it was tailored to my physical abilities and limitations. Emma is motivating and firm ensuring that you leave her class feeling the difference. The circuit class is particularly good incorporating cardiovascular with toning exercises. I can fully recommend her to all that want to get fit and toned for summer. If I can do it post baby so can you!'
From a Post Natal Client
Hey Emma, have gotten SO into your classes the last month or so - really wish I'd discovered them earlier!!! Find them easy to follow and love that there are options depending on level etc. It also helps to be on camera as I can't escape and find it super helpful to be corrected. [....] The zoom set up works so well and would be so great if you continue some of them even when the world goes back to normal. It's also so good to be able to commit at the last minute once I know the kids will be sleeping'
