Emma Newham

A bit of background on me, so you can get a little flavour of who I am and what I do.  

I have dedicated my working life to improving the health and wellbeing of clients and teachers alike.  Having spent almost three decades in the fitness industry, I bring a wealth of knowlege and experience directly to you.  

My passion lies in holistic forms of movement, primarily Pilates, yoga and barre, as well as mindful techniques that shift one’s perspective and improve mental health.  

I have founded various companies including: Pilates Union UK, Union Yoga UK, BarreConcept, MyBody Studios EmmaNewhamFitness.  My online training courses all have international accreditation in the UK, USA, Canada and Australia.

Aside from being a tutor, I’m also an Assessor (assessing teachers for their final exams) and an Internal Quality Assurer or internal verifier, (I assess the assessors, doing their assessing), so you can be assured of quality content and consistency. 

I have a wealth of media experience, having written for national newspapers and fitness magazines as well as hosting live fitness slots on UK radio, LBC.  As co-presenter on the shopping channel, QVC, I taught Pilates and sold fitness equipment on live TV and it was a great experience.  I’m author to various exercise training manuals and have produced my own range of fitness DVDs.

I have been running my own award-winning studio - MyBody Studios - the North East's premier venue for holistic exercise, since 2002.
