Trainer Julia is a Certified Personal Trainer who works with clients by pairing a belief in the power of the mind with power over the body.

Julia grew up in a working class family where women were meant to be seen, not heard and married, not educated.

In spite of this obstacle, Julia did educate herself. First, gaining a B/A in English Literature then advancing in communications and becoming a print journalist for a number of different newspapers. Over the next decade Julia learned how to write, edit and excite people with interesting true stories. Through all of this time, Julia's love of physical activity grew stronger and stronger. She used exercise as an effective means to gain more self-confidence, alleviate anxiety and battle depression. It was very early on in life that this passion for fitness became a staple in Julia's life. In fact, she has at many times said that fitness saved her life.

After moving on from journalism in 2012, Julia began working on her true passion - working out and becoming a Personal Trainer. Over the next few years, she trained her body to a high level via running, body building, yoga, hiking, interval training and numerous other activities. She also began studying over this time and in 2017, she obtained her personal training certifications, with specializations in Elder Fitness and Weight Training.

Since then, Julia wrote her first book on training using her experience from being fit and active for 25 years - "The 30-Day Cast-Away Program" The book is available on Kindle and in hard copy on Amazon.com. Julia is currently working on several more books.

She also runs a successful Youtube Channel and hosts her own FaceBook page.
