I took my young daughter to see Julie for some scar massage and advice. She was absolutely spot on with her expert advice and taught us both techniques for treating the scars. After the session it was amazing to see how much better the scars looked already. A few months on and we can now see how much positive progress has been made by following Julie’s advice. It is also worth noting how sensitive Julie was to the age of my child and how kindly and realistically she spoke about the trauma she’d had – Julie a real gentle and knowledgeable soul and gave us much much better post-care advice than what we had from the consultant at hospital. I strongly recommend!
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.
The course has not only made me feel fitter but also lots more confident. Julie has been fantastic and I am looking forward to taking the next step in my fitness journey!
Having trained with Julie for over 4 years, I knew that I could trust her 100% to guide me through safe exercises during pregnancy and after the birth of my bubba – and she absolutely did!
Julie is friendly, approachable and highly professional. It is reassuring that she pays such attention to detail when it comes to technique and she really helps her class get the most from a workout. I have been to her Mum and Baby Fitness class and Holistic Core Restore Heat class, and I’m hoping to go to the Holistic Core Restore Heavy class when I feel ready. Thanks Julie for helping me get back into shape x
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 is amazing, she really cares about her clients, works incredibly hard, knows her stuff and really, really motivates you to achieve your goals.
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 am the poster girl for hating exercise, but signed up to Julie’s Core and Restore class a couple of months after giving birth…in 6 weeks I lost lots of inches and kgs, and feel incredibly strong in my core and pelvic floor. Now moved onto the Heat class, which is as it sounds! Julie explains well, helps us out with food ideas and most importantly to me, patient when i need something explaining for the thousandth time! A great positive person to be around at this time of my life with a 7 month old depriving me of sleep!
Julie is amazing at what she does she has totally transformed my life after having a my daughter. After loosing nearly 3 stone I now have such a positive outlook on health and fitness and strong body confidence, which is something I never thought I would achieve after having a baby.
Julie really cares about her clients gives you 100% help support the whole time. I think Julie is amazing and I just love her.
Julie is a fabulous motivator & trainer. I’ve never got bored, like I have with other PT’s, as the training is so varied. Julie somehow makes training fun whilst making you work hard & you suddenly realise that you are doing more than you were the previous week. The group sessions are fun & there is no hidding place, you still have to put the effort in but at your own pace. I’ve found that I’ve had less sports related injuries since training with Julie but when I have she has the knowledge to get me fixed quickly. Training & nutrition is Julie’s passion & it shows week in week out.
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 was recommended to me and being a newbie to fitness i was quite apprehensive. However i was soon put at ease and after a few sessions I soon embraced a whole new healthy lifestyle with regular pt and group sessions with Julie. Her influence in my life has given me more confidence as my body shape tones and my strength grows. Thank you! x
From the first contact with Happy Body project I could tell Julie was very professional and all about doing things right. She asked about my birth and my recovery. At my first class she assessed my abdominal muscles.
I was apprehensive when we had to resort to online programs due to Covid as I thought we’d lose the personal touch but again Julie has been brilliant! Julie has adapted the classes so we can use whatever equipment we have at home & kept us smiling throughout. Thank you Julie x
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.
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 Holl is a miracle worker!! She is an amazing personal trainer, whose passion, energy and enthusiasm is truly infectious!
I cannot recommend Julie’s excersise classes enough! She has taught me so many things about my body and keeping healthy that I never knew before! I was quite conscious of myself after giving birth to my 2nd baby but she boosted my confidence and made me feel like me again. I saw a massive difference after 6 weeks. Highly, highly reccomend! Xx
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.
