Our Story
EMLI started with a simple realisation.
“Finding safe, trustworthy guidance through fertility journeys, pregnancy and postpartum recovery should not be this hard”
After years working in health, Amy thought she knew her body well.
Fertility challenges, a complicated pregnancy, and months of pelvic pain after birth left her feeling lost. Even as a health professional, she struggled to find reliable information on how to move safely at every stage. From preparing her body for conception to recovering after birth.
She turned to Ali, a women’s health physiotherapist, for support. Those appointments helped. But juggling sessions around work and a newborn was exhausting.
That experience changed both of them.
Because Ali had seen it too many times in the clinic. Women arriving confused, undertreated, or having pushed through exercise that made things worse. Women who needed guidance that was safe, accessible, and grounded in evidence. Not just reassurance to rest and wait.
So Amy and Ali built what they wished had existed.
A place where women moving through fertility, pregnancy, and the postnatal years could find expert led support that meets them where they are. Whenever they need it.
So we created EMLI.
A space built by women’s health professionals who understand the entire journey from preconception through pregnancy and postpartum recovery. A space that blends clinical expertise with empathy so movement feels safe, supportive and achievable from home.
We created EMLI so that every woman, no matter where she is or what her journey looks like, can access expert-led, evidence-based movement designed for real life.
Our programs guide women from the very beginning, preparing the body for conception, staying active and supported through pregnancy, and rebuilding strength and confidence after birth.
EMLI is more than an exercise program. It is a space where clinical knowledge meets compassion, where women are supported to recover, rebuild and reconnect with themselves.
Because every woman deserves to move with confidence through every stage of her journey.

Amy
Pharmacist, a mum, and co-founder of EMLI Health.
Amy is a pharmacist with over a decade of experience in women’s and critical care health. Through years of working with patients in complex medical settings, she developed a deep commitment to helping women make informed, confident choices about their health.
Her own journey to motherhood was far from straightforward. After undergoing IVF, Amy experienced a complicated pregnancy that limited her ability to exercise and left her unsure of what was safe for her body. Following birth, she lived with pelvic pain for more than a year, a recovery that was far more challenging than she ever expected.
Even with her medical background, Amy found herself searching for clear, trustworthy guidance on how to move, heal and regain strength. That gap became the driving force behind EMLI, a space where women can access safe, evidence-based movement designed for the realities of fertility, pregnancy and postpartum recovery.
Amy combines her clinical knowledge with genuine understanding to create programs that empower women to move with confidence and feel strong in their bodies, no matter where they are in their journey.
Ali
Women’s Health Physiotherapist and Clinical Advisor to EMLI Health
Ali is a women’s health physiotherapist who has spent the past decade helping women navigate the changes that come with pregnancy, birth and postpartum recovery. Her work has taken her across several countries, supporting women from all walks of life through both the joys and challenges of motherhood.
Over the years, Ali has worked with countless women recovering from prolapse, incontinence, pelvic floor dysfunction and birth-related injuries. What she noticed most was how common these experiences are and how difficult accessing support can be. That realisation fuelled her commitment to empower women with the knowledge, confidence and tools to understand and care for their bodies.
At EMLI, Ali brings her extensive clinical experience and calm, encouraging approach to help ensure every program reflects what women truly need for their bodies to feel strong, supported and ready for the demands of motherhood.
