About Julia

Julia really enjoyed ballet and dancing when she was younger, not realising that many of the conditioning exercises were actually derived from Pilates. As she got older, she changed her exercise regime to Aerobics and Body Conditioning classes and eventually trained to teach Exercise to Music (Aerobics).

Alongside Exercise to Music, Julia developed an interest in remedial work and took a Diploma in Exercise for Special Populations. At the same time she started attending Pilates classes and could see the benefits of Pilates, in particular for those needing rehabilitation, so she trained to teach Pilates. Julia qualified in Matwork Pilates in 2004 and Reformer Pilates in 2008. Teaching Pilates is not just one qualification but is a lifetime learning process. Julia continues her professional development on a regular basis.

Initially Julia was teaching evenings and weekends, alongside her full time job as a project manager but in 2008, she decided to resign from her 9 to 5 job to pursue her passion teaching Pilates full time. She has no regrets!
