About Julie

I was a professional Dancer Musical Theatre Performer in West End shows and television, I trained
at Arts Educational London a professional performing arts school, I trained in Ballet-tap-and Jazz I
worked professionally on TV and stage (West End shows) from a child and I still dance and perform
now when the occasional job comes up.

At the end of 2023 I danced in Paddington in Peru , and in 2026 Ebenezer for Jennifer White, the choreographer of the Barbie movie. My Pilates fitness enables me to still move and dance well .

I started to do Pilates in early 2000 to rehab my back and found the results so inspiring, I trained to
teach it myself, Pilates really is the foundation for everything in your life. My classes are very
popular, I’m hot on technique but also make it enjoyable, I work for 4 centres as well as my own
classes.

I have been teaching the classical Joseph Pilates method since 2010, with Alliance and Balanced Body. I still have a passion for teaching , because Pilates is incredible for wellbeing. During these years I have gained a vast experience and knowledge , adding certifications and apparatus in the Pilates method.I have taught in Spain and UK , and enjoyed studying in South Africa.

I pride myself on responding to clients needs , both physical and mental, those rebuilding those
already fit.

I am level 3 in Matt and Reformer, Pre and Post on both. I currently also teach in a Pilates
Reformer studio. It is wonderful to see people on their wellness journey and I truly believe in my
motto ‘Invest in your Future Health’
