Hi, I'm Em Tweedie. I began my career in fitness in 1998, completing an HND and a BSc in Science and Management of Exercise and Health.

I'm a fully qualified aerobics and Pilates instructor; my working life began as a freelance instructor teaching body conditioning, circuits, step, Bodypump, aerobics and spinning classes at numerous health and fitness facilities.

I live with IBS and an under-active thyroid. I've had knee surgery, hip surgery and hernia surgery. I also have dodgy wrists thanks to being hyper-mobile. On top of these health challenges, I’m 47 years old, working full-time and raising a very energetic 3-year-old son, so I know firsthand how demanding life can be, both physically and mentally.

Despite it all, I’m living proof that it’s still possible to maintain a healthy, active lifestyle. If I can do it, juggling everything I do, then I know you can too!
