Kate is the best trainer I have ever worked with. I’ve tried everything for my chronic hip pain for 10+ years, from physical therapy to yoga, to no avail, and Kate’s mobility and strength classes have helped more than anything I’ve ever done in the past. She listens and often adjusts her classes based on your feedback, and will help correct you when needed in a way that makes you better, not just focused on perfect form. I used to have no idea what I was doing at the gym and Kate has given me the confidence and the knowledge to go and do my own workouts. She is so knowledgeable, so understanding, and so creative in her work and you really see the results the more you work with her. After about 2 years of working with her, I feel like I am stronger and more mobile than I’ve ever been.

I’ve avoided gyms for over twenty years and some friends talked me into finally giving this one a try. So grateful I listened. Kate and Muhammed are wonderful, friendly, welcoming, chill, and skilled at what they offer. My body feels great and more importantly it feels good to keep going back. Thank you for being here!

Emerge has been the highlight of my summer. As a current college tennis player I knew I needed to find a good way to stay in shape this summer, and I find it extremely helpful to workout in a group. Kate and Muhammed’s group classes are excellent. Unlike many typical gym settings, I am so excited to come and workout at Emerge each day. These workouts have significantly improved my strength, speed and balance. I now know new ways to prevent injury and improve my mobility.

In addition to the physical health benefits of Emerge I have had so much fun. The community within Emerge is like no other place. The people here are the best, and the energy is great. Vermont is lucky to have this amazing gym.

My wife and I have been working with Kate (Emerge) for almost 3 months now, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her program/classes. As former college athletes and avid outdoor recreation-ers, strength and mobility together have never been more important to us - - and Kate delivers on both. She listens to our needs and works closely with us to achieve our personal fitness and overall health goals. Highly recommend for anyone as she offers in person and virtual classes.

The culture is friendly, supportive and inclusive while the programming is comprehensive and engaging. Kate and Muhammad are amazing coaches who lead with kindness and positivity making the gym a safe and welcoming community for all.

Kate is doing a great job in helping me to increase my balance and eliminate tennis, skiing and general old age aches and pains. Kate comes with a plan and makes the sessions challenging, varied and fun. I'm seeing positive improvements after only a few months, so I'm a true believer in her approach. Like many of the other reviewers I'm so glad I met Kate and I actually look forward to our sessions and appreciate the feedback.
