Our Story

EMAC looks to make Connections. We strive to build a caring and collaborative environment in which all members are connected to instructors, trainers, classes, and programs that fit their needs and goals.

We also look to Challenge our members because NO CHALLENGE, NO CHANGE! Through goal setting or competitions, we encourage our members to work outside of their comfort zone to embrace change and achieve new levels of success.

Most importantly we Care. We care about our members and our East Memphis community.
