EMMA
Originally from the Belgian seaside, Emma moved to Brussels in 2020 and quickly found her place in the city - and on the bike. She began as a regular rider at Animo, instantly hooked by the energy of the cycling room. After starting her coaching journey elsewhere, she's now bringing that same energy back to Animo - this time as a coach. With a passion for creating spaces where people can reconnect with themselves through movement and music, Emma is known for her grounded, uplifting presence. She inspires riders to step into their strength, both on and off the bike.
Emma’s classes are energizing, empowering and rooted in intention. She encourages moving intuitively on the beat and focusing on how the body feels rather than striving for perfection. Her coaching style is inclusive and adaptable, offering every rider the chance to push themselves while staying connected and present. Off the bike, you’ll find her brunching with friends, trying out new pastries or discovering the next great coffee spot in the city.

You will never be fully satisfied with whatever goal you're reaching because once you reach it, you already are thinking of a next goal. Instead focus on how you're feeling and the little steps you are making on that journey.

I believe in the power of cross-training and I'm trying to hold myself accountable for that by adding a functional workout (Move+ is my current favorite!) to my routine. I also try to add recovery/mobility/stretch sessions.

Being surrounded by people with very different lifestyles and background. As a result of combining a job in a tech company with coaching, I get a lot of different people to work with on a daily basis and that always gives me new insights and views on things.
