Emily Powell & Christopher Pyne
Friends & Workout Away Co-Owners
Hey there! 👋🏻
We’re Emily and Chris, the duo behind Workout Away, and we’re so glad you’ve found us.
From day one, our mission has been to create an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome, no egos, no pressure, just great energy, powerful workouts, and an incredible community.
Between us, we’ve spent years working in the airline and hospitality industries, also teaching at London’s most prestigious and luxurious gym. Workout Away is the perfect blend of all of that experience, premium high-end service, polished details, and a truly memorable escape!
Emily leads all things guest experience and will be your go-to from the moment you start thinking about booking. She’s all about making sure your time with us feels easy, seamless, and special. Chris heads up operations and creative, from our class formats to the way our retreats run. You’ll find both of us in resort, teaching, coaching, and getting to our retreaters.
We’ve poured everything into this business, and we take huge pride in every retreat we deliver, from the first email to the final cooldown.
We can’t wait to welcome you soon,
Emily & Chris x
