Description
Hi I'm Julie!
I have been teaching Pilates for 17 years, and absolutely love what I do! As a former dancer, I love the way Pilates makes me feel and helps me with my posture and body awareness, so that I can continue moving and dancing and doing all the other things I love.
I have designed this course to give you a gentle introduction to Pilates that will allow you to do a little bit of movement everyday. I want you to feel amazing at the end of the week, not tired or sore. I want you to feel motivated and inspired to go through all of the lessons week after week until your body begins to crave that feeling of moving well everyday.
What's included
You will get an introductory lesson to watch once on the 5 Basic Principles of the Stott Pilates technique.
After that, there is a Daily Warm Up to be done as a workout on its own when you are short on time, or to combine with one of the 6 other workouts below.
The 6 workouts include:
Core Workout
Arm Workout
Leg Workout
Balance Challenge
Cardio Workout
Stretch Class
The goal to do at least one workout or segment a day. You have lifetime access to the course and can continue to practice and repeat these workouts on your own, to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.
Join me on this wellness journey and show your body how much you care about it!

- Beginners to Pilates of all ages.
- Seniors looking to add more movement and activity to their weekly routine.
