WHO WE ARE
Embody is a semi-private training space built around a strength and conditioning philosophy.
We believe strength is the foundation for feeling good in your body — supporting performance, resilience, confidence, and long-term health. That’s why our approach prioritizes structured, strength-based programming, delivered in a calm, intentional environment where quality always comes before quantity.
Embody the change you want to see in your life.
At the core of our method is a weekly training plan, delivered through our Embody Strength sessions. Each week is designed to develop all key movement patterns — hinge, squat, push, pull, carry, and core — ensuring balanced strength, reduced injury risk, and meaningful long-term progress.
Alongside this, we offer sessions such as Calisthenics and HIIT, which build athleticism and conditioning while staying aligned with our strength-first approach.
Community is central to everything we do. Embody is a small space, with sessions capped at 8–10 people, allowing for personal connection, attentive coaching, and an environment where you’re known by name. We’re also dog-friendly, because training should feel human, welcoming, and part of real life.
At Embody, training isn’t about chasing trends or burning out. It’s about consistency, intelligent progression, and moving with purpose — together.
OUR FOUNDERS
Jules and Elise, both passionate about sports from a young age, left their corporate jobs after 10 years in Finance and Consulting. They founded Embody in Lisbon, reigniting their love for movement. Embody is their unique blend of Jules’ sports knowledge and Elise’s mindfulness practices. They both believe in the power of the body and movement to change lives; your body is your main vessel in this life – when you feel good in your body, you can show up better in the world, for yourself, for loved ones and for your purpose. Embody is not just a space; it’s a home-like creation, welcoming a community in a fun and safe environment.
