STORY FROM THE GYM

Member Story: Emma – Feeling Stronger, Fitting In

Published on 1 July 2025

When Emma Tree joined Inclusive Fitness just a few months ago, her goals were clear: lose weight, build confidence, and improve her mood and mental clarity. Like many people starting a fitness journey, she wasn’t sure if a gym would be the right fit — but that all changed once she stepped through our doors.

Emma has now been training with us for 4–5 months and already sees and feels the difference:

“I’ve improved my balance and flexibility and decreased my measurements slightly,” she says. “I’m not so shaky on my legs and my muscles feel a bit stronger since joining the gym.”

Emma lives with disabilities and is severely sight impaired, yet she’s never felt like an outsider at Inclusive Fitness.

“No one makes me feel like I don’t fit in — they include me in everything that goes on. They make me feel like there’s nothing I can’t try to do.”

Her confidence has grown and she now feels like a valued member of the gym family, thanks in no small part to the friendly, welcoming team.

“Natasha, Tom, Vicky, and Alisha all stand out to me. I never thought I would manage to go to a gym or feel comfortable in one, but this gym has been great at making me feel welcome.”

So what would she say to someone thinking about joining?

“You should go for a look around — I bet you’d love it.”

Thank you, Emma, for sharing your journey and reminding us what Inclusive Fitness is all about — support, inclusion, and empowering everyone to feel stronger in every way.
