HIIT, STRENGTH TRAINING, FUNCTIONAL TRAINING

 

Julie began her fitness journey in 2004 while earning her undergraduate degree at Penn State, where she completed a two-semester instructor training program and graduated in 2007 with a minor in Kinesiology and certifications in multiple group fitness formats. Over the past 20+ years, she has taught consistently at fitness facilities throughout the Philadelphia area, developing a reputation for dynamic, accessible classes rooted in functional fitness. Julie emphasizes sustainable movement patterns, spinal alignment, joint mobility, strength, balance, and flexibility—elements she weaves into every class. Her specialties include strength training, HIIT, cardio, small group athletic training, Pilates, yoga, and stretch-based formats. She holds certifications from AFAA, TRX, Les Mills (BodyCombat, Functional Strength, and Strength Development), and AAAI Pilates.

Fitness Philosophy:
Movement should feel good—physically and mentally. Julie believes in training smart and sustainably, so we’re building strength and resilience that lasts a lifetime.
