Discover your Path to Strength with Baba Yaga

Personal Training with Intention, Mindfulness, and Focus

Baba Yaga is a unique character of Slavic folklore. At times she is the bogeyman, yet other times she is divine intervention. The name “Body by Baba Yaga” is meant to evoke the strength that Baba Yaga embodies to pursue what fulfills her.

My name is Emilka Jurkowska CPT, PCES, and I am here to guide you on your specific personal training path.

Personal training is just that: personal. Your goals are your motivation, and I will customize your training plan for what you long to do. Whether it’s hiking, gardening, playing sports, or working with your dogs - building strength and mobility is the best way to fully enjoy a pain-free life.

Outside of being a Certified Personal Trainer, I have been a Physical Therapist Assistant since 2018. In this time I have specialized in developing strength and conditioning plans for youth athletes, active elders, and pregnant people preparing to bring new life into the world. I bring those years of experience to my personal training clients.

I am an avid hockey player and dog sport trainer and rejoice in sharing a love of movement with others.

Consider this your invitation to celebrate what you can do, and to broaden your relationship with movement!
