Emery Ferraro

Martial Arts Background:

Emery began training Muay Thai in 2022 after “retiring” from a decade of ultrarunning. They moved to Cape Breton in 2024 and were thrilled to find a new training home at Cheticamp Martial Arts. Since then, Emery has been a fixture in the Muay Thai classes, eager to crack pads and share their enthusiasm for the art.

Teaching Philosophy:

Emery believes your relationship to your body is the most important lifelong partnership you will ever have. Martial arts should be a place where everyone feels safe and welcome and Emery works with each participant to support them on their journey, no matter where they are.

Fun Fact or Personal Detail:

When not on the mats, Emery can usually be found outside - biking, running, hiking, skiing, gardening, or enjoying a book in a hammock.
