Emily
Doran

Emily’s background is rooted in healthcare, with experience in both clinical and corporate settings. Through that work, she’s seen firsthand how important movement and wellness are for long-term health, longevity, and overall quality of life.

Yoga became Emily’s entry point back into fitness in 2022, but quickly grew into something much more. Through her practice, she discovered a way to build strength, improve mobility and body awareness, and develop a deeper understanding of how her body moves.

As Move Detroit’s Yoga Instructor, Emily’s goal is to make yoga feel like an extension of your training, not something separate from it. Her classes are designed to challenge you, build strength, improve mobility, and help you move better. If you’re expecting yoga to always be the “easy” workout, she might just change your mind.

More than anything, Emily wants members to leave class feeling more connected to their bodies, grounded in the moment, and confident in the way they move, both inside and outside the gym.

Emily’s approach is simple: challenge the body, connect with your movement, and build strength and awareness you can carry far beyond the mat.
