The rate increases to $160 per week if you opt for sessions longer than 45 minutes. You can check out the full pricing details here.
Do you provide guidance on nutrition and meal plans?
Yes, we offer basic nutrition guidance and meal suggestions to complement your fitness goals. For a detailed overview, don’t hesitate to contact us today.
When can I expect to see progress from training?

Vinisha Krishnan2025-03-11 When I first joined Fujiwhara more than a year back, I wanted to improve my overall strength and gain more energy throughout the day. As I started working with Emma, I realized that my goals expanded to improving my flexibility and focusing on functional fitness. What I love most about training with Emma is the variety and personalized approach. Emma always tailors the workouts to fit my progress and keeps me challenged while ensuring I'm always working safely. I remember the feeling of accomplishment and how Emma pushed me to believe in myself and go beyond what I thought I was capable of. I would definitely recommend Emma (Fujiwhara) to anyone looking for a supportive, motivating environment. It’s been a great experience, and I’ve improved so much more than I initially expected. Thank you Emma and can’t wait to smash more goals. Dishant Arora2025-03-04 I came to Fujiwhara because of back pain and wanted to improve my strength and mobility. Training with Emma has not only helped relieve my pain but also improved my posture and movement. My focus has now shifted from back pain relief to building strength overall. What I love most is Emma’s focus on technique and the way she incorporates exercises that are different from traditional workouts. The variety keeps training engaging and effective. I’d highly recommend training with Emma, to anyone looking to recover from pain, build strength, and move better. Hazel Lim-Lam2025-02-10 I've been training with Emma since 2013, and I can't recommend her enough! When I started, I was a complete beginner, but with her patience and clear instructions, I gained the confidence to exercise safely and effectively. In 2023, my 15-year-old son joined me for personal training. I wanted him to learn proper techniques from a professional to avoid injuries and bad habits, and I trusted Emma completely. Today, he still trains with her and also goes to the gym on his own, and I feel reassured knowing he has the right foundation. Recently, my 13-year-old daughter joined us. She was hesitant at first, but Emma’s encouragement and support made all the difference. Now, she’s gradually shifting her mindset and even looks forward to her sessions! Emma is an incredible trainer who genuinely cares about her clients. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, she’s the best person to guide you on your fitness journey! Yulia Sprenger2025-02-08 I’ve been exercising with Emma for about three years, and she is amazing- both as a personal trainer and in small group sessions. She has a unique training style that suits everyone. I love how she connects with each person and tailors exercises to individual needs. Beyond her expertise, Emma has a fantastic personality- always positive and smiling. Regular training with her has brought me many health benefits, and I’ve even noticed that my body feels stiff or achy if I miss a week or two. I highly recommend Emma to anyone who cares about their body and overall health! Jenna Chaffey Coaching2024-08-23 Highly recommend Emma, I have been going twice a week & have noticed my balance has improved, Im getting stronger & some injuires seem to be healing. Emma is passionate about what she does & holds a wealth of knowledge :) Rose2024-06-16 I have had many a personal trainer since 2000. Some work well for me others were pushing their own agendas. Emma is invested in me and showing a new way of exercise. One that doesn’t mean lifting huge weighs for improvement. Exercise that frees my body from injury. First few weeks were challenging not from pushing my body but from moving in a different way. Please check out her website and find a better smother way to fitness. Highly recommended. Katerina R2024-06-14 I have been training with Emma for 10 years now and I cannot thank her for how she has helped me from recovering from a broken foot to making me stronger and increasing my fitness. Emma is always approachable and continues to find training programs that will help you get the most out of your sessions with her. Diane Bloom2024-05-17 I have been with Emma's gym sessions for a number of years which has given me the ability to continue with long distance zoom training. I know I would not be as strong as I am in my mid 50's without ongoing support and training. I highly recommend Fujiwhara Personal Training with Emma. cathiandjackie 20202024-05-11 Emma has been training both myself and my wife and we couldn’t be happier. Her methods ensure that we have no fear of injury but push us enough to get great results. The methods she uses are helping us build strength and redefine our shape and the combination of the equipment and her patient and calm approach make the sessions we look forward to very much. Whether it’s 1:1 , pairs or in a small group we really enjoy it. Emma is very professional and supportive and we feel very lucky to have her as our trainer. Sinead Connell2024-05-11 Myself and my partner have been training with Emma for more than 10 years. She always has our best interests at the forefront of each and every session. She tailors our workout to our abilities and to any issues/soreness we may have. We have our workout sessions with her personally and via Zoom each week. Colin and I always feel better after the workout and that she has put thought and effort into how to tailor each and every session. If you want a professional, individual and very beneficial exercise program, Emma is for you. Jean and Colin
