Welcome to StartStrong Fitness CIC
We are a grant-funded parent and baby exercise community interest company, offering free exercise classes for pregnant women, new mums, and dads. Our classes provide a space for parents to work out while their babies relax and play—no need to worry about childcare. Just come along, get active, and connect with like-minded people.
Our mission is to ensure no parent navigates the journey of parenthood alone. We’re building a supportive community, using exercise as a way to bridge the gap, foster meaningful conversations, and have fun while getting a great workout!

From our first session, Emma showed a level of dedication and expertise that immediately put me at ease. Her knowledge of fitness and nutrition is impressive, and she took the time to understand my personal goals and create a tailored plan that was both challenging and achievable.
Throughout our sessions, Emma pushed me to work hard while still being attentive to my limitations and making adjustments when necessary. She is always positive and encouraging, and I felt motivated to keep pushing myself to improve. I also appreciate her flexibility in working around my busy schedule and being available for questions and support outside of our scheduled sessions.
Overall, I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking to improve their fitness and achieve their goals. Her passion and expertise are evident in everything they do, and I am grateful for the progress I have made.

Emma has worked with a group with 7 children with various food habits. These sessions were really good, well thought out and delivered in a very professional understanding manner. The children received a lot out of it. I can highly recommend her.

Cannot be faulted! Emma has been one in a million when it comes to my mental and physical well-being. I continue to work with Emma on a weekly basis. She provides me with a big sense of reassurance and hope that recovery from an eating disorder is possible and is a shining example of determination and passion when it comes to her job and the clients that she works with. Cannot ask for anyone better.

THE STRANGER THAT CALLED WORKSHOP. INSPIRING!!!
This course, to help support those and their loved ones with an eating disorder. The course took place over 4 weeks. My daughter was one of a of 7, there group catered for all ages, the common denominator was they were all on the the road or in the middle of recovery.
would recommend this to anyone, parent, child or adult dealing/living with an eating disorder.
Emma the co-ordinator was amazing, drawing on her own experiences. we came away feeling supported, but most of all we came away, with a better understanding.
Most of all, you knew that you weren't alone in your recovery.
