Hello!
I’m Julie, a Body Control Pilates qualified teacher, with nearly 15 years experience teaching movement and dance.
I discovered Pilates years ago as a student and loved how good I felt during and after classes and later decided to train as a teacher. After I had my child, Pilates helped me to improve postural and muscle issues, although I am still very much a work in progress! I’m establishing new classes after relocating and focusing on family.
Whilst on maternity leave, alongside the usual baby classes I was keen to find a group where I could focus on myself whilst knowing baby was welcome too. I found there were limited options in my local area, so I decided to teach accessible, community based Pilates classes where mums could have a moment of ‘me’ time whilst moving their bodies and meeting other women.
Before training in Pilates I taught movement and dance as a Community Dance Artist, working with children, people with Parkinson’s and those living with dementia.
I am passionate about helping people feel better by re-connecting with and moving their body. I work with care and empathy and aim to have a little bit of fun too! I would love to meet you at a class or 1-1 session soon.
