 Erica Valenzuela shares how surviving a life-altering health crisis led her to create E·motion — a wellness space where movement and emotion meet. She opens up about her journey from personal trainer to space-holder, and why breaking bottles, working out, and resting belong in the same room.

Erica shares how her space blends art, fitness, and raw emotion—through smashing painted bottles, intense movement, and reflective “chill” periods—to help people break through stuck feelings and reconnect with worthiness

Erica Valenzuela reflects on a vivid dream that inspired her to create E·motion Fitness Experience in Westminster, Colorado — a space built around one core model: “Break Stuff. Work Out. Chill.”

Erica talks with Canvas Rebel about how her own journey of survival and transformation led to creating a space where movement, emotion, and art collide. She explains why E·motion is about more than fitness—it’s about giving people permission to feel loud, soft, messy, and human. 

Erica discusses her ten‑plus years of personal training and how witnessing clients carry unseen emotional burdens shifted her focus from just physical transformation to whole‑self healing. 

Break Stuff! Yep, you got it right! We are breaking bottles and breaking through our barriers of what is holding us back in the latest episode of Apex Activated. On location at Emotion with Owner Erica Valenzuela, who is teaching us to show ourselves and others grace as we navigate emotions and life.
