Born and raised in Toronto, Emilie Goldblum developed a fierce work ethic and competitive spirit through ballet and gymnastics at a young age. At eleven, she was introduced to the brutal yet graceful discipline of rhythmic gymnastics and quickly set her sights on competing in the Olympic Games. By twelve, she was living and training in Novogorsk, Russia, in former Soviet-style dormitories, dedicating twelve to fourteen hour long days to the sport.
Years of sacrifice and discipline led her to become a three-time Canadian National Champion and the 1999 Pan American Champion. She went on to represent not only Canada but the entire American continent as the sole individual rhythmic gymnast at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games.
After achieving her Olympic dream, she relocated to Los Angeles, where she built a successful career in aerial dance and stunt performance. Her work includes appearances in music videos for Justin Bieber, live performances with Taylor Swift and The Weeknd, touring with Cher, and stunt work in films such as La La Land (as a double for Emma Stone) and Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (as a double for Rihanna).
Now happily married with two children, she is re-envisioning her next chapter. Her passion, drive, elite athletic background, and grounded yet positive outlook are the qualities that define her. In this new venture, she aims to inspire personal greatness in others — believing that physical well-being and movement are powerful pathways to transformation.
