I had a series of PT sessions with Julie after the birth of my daughter , that came with various complications. Julie listened to me and my body… she cared and was knowledgeable about when to push and when to change tact. She was great!
Best of all she kept me laughing throughout and knew when I needed a kick up the backside to push myself harder!!
She got me back on track , physically recovered and enjoying exercise again. Only stopped as I moved from the area but I couldn’t recommend her more!
This course has been very educationally beneficial for me. I have learned a lot about my post natal body and what to do and not to do. Julie has been a great coach and clearly is very knowledgeable in this area!
Julie is a great personal trainer, she absolutely knows her stuff. Everyone is made to feel equal no matter what your fitness level is. I thoroughly enjoy the group sessions, they are a great workout & we always have a laugh too which takes away some of the pain all in all what Julie achieves for her clients is results. Thank you for what you do for us xx
Julie has worked her magic on my C section scar. I went last week for a massage on the scar and surrounding area. We spent a lot of time doing some release work and the transformation is fantastic. I can’t fault the service at all. Julie is welcoming and friendly and takes her time to listen and understands the impact a scar can have on your mental health. Would highly recommend.
Every woman who has had a baby needs Julie in their lives !! Despite being very active and quite fit during last pregnancy my abs were not so happy nor was my pelvic floor especially after three sections! Julie was just what I needed and after a 6 week programme so much has changed in my life ( for the better ) … who else can say they went trampolining after 4m with NO leaks ! I also had the c-section scar massage which was amazing and so helpful for me to reconnect with how my babies had to arrive in the world.
The programme has had a real impact on my mental and physical well being all helped by the amazing Julie!
Following x2 operations on my cervix I was told I needed to strengthen my pelvic floor or face possible complications during pregnancy. I went through a few Personal Trainers who didn’t have the correct experience before I found Julie. She is professional, knowledgeable and makes you feel completely at ease. Her classes are fun, varied and thorough and I always look forward to them. After 6 weeks I can already feel a difference and have signed up for more without hesitation. Thanks Jules!
Julie is superb! After a second c-section, I was keen to get back exercising in the right way to lose weight and tone up. As a mother herself, she totally understands the difficulty in not only getting out of the house with a new baby, but also being able to get out and properly exercise with someone monitoring and encouraging you.
I have been going to Julie’s Heavy class for over 4 months now and absolutely love it! She is so knowledgeable, plans activities that are challenging but not impossible and my confidence has definitely increased because of the post-class buzz!
After having many health issues and surgery Julie at The Happy Body Project has given me back my strength by 1-1 PT sessions and I have experienced amazing results on my scars by massage. The Barre classes are always fun and even when it gets hard work Julie manages to make you smile. I’ve never felt fitter, healthier & happy!
Julie’s classes are fabulous. Her knowledge and professionalism are second to none. I’ve always been a bit rubbish with diet and exercise but Julie’s post natal classes helped me no end after my son was born and helped me get in to the best condition I have ever been in. Highly recommended!!
I had a C section massage recently. didn’t know if I’d benefit or what it would actually involve but even after 18 months I’m so glad I did it!! What Julie doesn’t know about a post natal body isn’t worth knowing! She is so knowledgable and explains everything so well. Highly recommend the C section massage to anyone who has had one – however long ago!!
I had an absolutely brilliant pregnancy massage with Julie. I was hoping to feel a little less tight in certain areas (upper/lower back & calves) but left with so much more. Julie is an expert in customising her treatments to your needs, and as well as feeling pampered I learned so much about what my body is going through. Even some takeaway stretches and exercises for the last trimester & postnatal. Felt wonderful afterwards, can’t recommend enough!
Julie has helped me get back into exercise since 8 weeks post partum. Her classes are varied and suitable for all abilities. I cannot recommend her enough to new mums. Julie is so lovely, she is knowledgeable and supportive. She really looks after us and makes sure we exercise safely, and of course have fun.
I’ve been working with Julie for a while now and can really see an improvement in my core strength and strength in general. Her classes are always fun and she always comes up with alternative moves if you are not feeling great or you’ve damaged something. She keeps us posted on healthy foods and recipies and always goes the extra mile for everyone.
I would recommend her to anyone.
I’ve been going to the gym for years and never saw any results. However once I started training with Julie that changed and I now have definition in my shoulders and arms – she’s fab x
Julie is an excellent personal trainer, her focus on gentle postnatal recovery is brilliant and made me realise I needed to give myself a break and slowly improve my core strength. I am a year postnatal now and I feel fitter and more confident than ever, her classes provide an excellent workout and are great fun. Julie is extremely knowledgable and her advice on diet and exercise is clear and easy to follow. In the first stages of postnatal recovery her “HEAT” class allows you to reconnect with yourself with a small group of ladies going through the same thing, she provides a safe space to ask questions and it is reassuring to know that most people have gone through similar things. I look forward to Julie’s classes every week and they are a great mood enhancer. I never fail to leave Barre class with a smile on my face!
Julie is brilliant! She is welcoming, approachable and extremely knowledgeable! She really takes pride and care in her job ! She is happy to individualise training needs ! I was able to do her HCR course throughout my 2nd pregnancy and feel comfortable & safe whilst doing this!
Her mum & baby class is a really good class to get you back into exercise safely it not only helps you strengthen your core & pelvic floor muscles but it also just helps you regain back some of your confidence!
I went to Julie with a sensitive, hard & lumpy, pulling C-section scar. Julie gave me a complete top to toe once over (perhaps what our doctors should do at a 6week post natal check) she checked my breathing & my diastasis recti.
Julie used soothing moogwax during my massage, which smells and feels absolutely amazing. Using gentle touch, movements & her special massage tool Julie was able to ease my angry scar to a happy more settle scar that didn’t pull or drag during exercising or playing with my Son. I also felt some more sensation and feeling come back around and on my scar which I hadn’t felt since having my son in May 2018.
I can honestly say my breathing was better (I was able to take a deep full breath) and my ‘mummy shelf’ as I called it felt soo much better and easier when moving around etc and I’ve noticed such a difference with how much my C-section swelling has reduced since having the massage with Julie. I will definitely be visiting Julie again for another session.
Julie is fantastic. She makes working out really enjoyable (who knew!), being a Mum of two herself and looking as good as she does provides serious motivation. She really cares and talks genuine sense, no jargon or mumbo jumbo.
I had c section scar tissue massage on my scar with Julie 13 weeks PP. it was relaxing and not painful at all. Julie was lovely and I was amazed at the difference in my scar after just an hours treatment. Afterwards she emailed me techniques she used which my scar responded well to so that I can do them on myself. She was really knowledgeable and I felt comfortable the whole way through.
