Meet your coach, Julia!
My name is Julia and I am a qualified physio with over 18 years’ experience working primarily with Musculoskeletal Injuries within the NHS and more recently for the MOD. I have used Pilates exercises in my practice for a number of years, and have experience working with ladies both during pregnancy and post-natally. As a mum myself to 2 young girls, I know all too well the changes our bodies go through during pregnancy, delivery and in the months following birth, and therefore understand the importance of strengthening our core and pelvic floor muscles.
My goal is to provide an opportunity for ladies to exercise, building strength in these areas alongside their babies in a safe environment whilst meeting other like-minded mothers. Our classes will be kept small to allow for 1:1 attention through the class and ensure you are exercising with the correct technique. By allowing babies into the class, it enables you to have the much needed ‘me’ time whilst navigating the demanding schedule of your little ones. If you need to tend to your baby in any way through the class, this is absolutely fine.
