From Injury Recovery to Consistent Workout Routine: Emma K's Story




SHINE completely changed my relationship with my body, fitness, and working out in general."


Summary


Before she found SHINE FIT, Emma K hadn’t worked out in nearly two years. After a tough injury, she was scared to start again—afraid she’d re-hurt herself and lose all the progress she’d made in healing.


But everything changed after one birthday invite from her best friend (our very own Coach Naomi). From that very first session, something shifted, and Emma instantly felt welcomed, supported, and seen.



Before SHINE FIT: Recovering from Injury and Rebuilding Confidence


Before she found SHINE FIT, Emma hadn’t worked out in nearly two years. She was recovering from an injury—and more than anything, she was scared.


❌ Scared of re-hurting herself

❌ Scared to lose the progress she’d made in healing

❌ Scared that she’d never feel confident in her body again


She wanted to move, but needed a place that would meet her where she was.



The Turning Point: A Birthday Invite That Changed Everything


Emma’s best friend Naomi (now a SHINE coach!) invited her to try a class for her birthday—and something clicked.


💙 The energy was welcoming and inclusive

💙 Modifications helped her feel safe and supported

💙 The vibe made her want to come back for more


"I fell in love with it after that first class. It made me feel good—and I realized I could show up without fear.”

The Transformation: Consistency, Confidence, and Community


Now, Emma’s one of those people who signs up after she finishes work — and hustles to get there because she doesn’t want to miss it.


✔️ She works out consistently

✔️ She prioritizes her health like never before

✔️ She’s built friendships and a new mindset


“I don’t want to miss seeing all the people I love—or the workout that makes me feel good.”


Advice for Someone Hesitant to Start


Emma knows how scary it can feel to move again after injury. Her advice?


“Don’t be scared. SHINE is so inclusive. There’s always a way to modify the workout so it works for you. And once you’re ready, you’ll be able to safely push yourself too.”

She’s proof that recovery doesn’t have to mean staying stuck. With the right space, movement can feel empowering again.
