Hi I’m Julia
I’m Julia Willmott, a specialist Pilates teacher and Women’s Wellness Coach with over 20 years of experience helping women feel strong, capable, and in control of their bodies — from perimenopause through post-menopause and beyond.
My mission is to help women move better, understand their changing bodies, and build lifelong confidence through tailored movement, education, and support.
Whether you want to strengthen your core, improve pelvic floor health, or find exercise that supports hormonal change, you’re in the right place.
My clients say that my strengths are:
- tailoring sessions to each person, by offering different levels, modifications and progressions where needed;
- fostering a sense of community and inclusivity;
- providing fun, flexible and effective sessions with the needs of each participant at the forefront;
- nuancing the class content to support participants in their every day movements, both at work and at home;
I can also bring extra support to our sessions, as I hold specialist qualifications in the following:
- Menopause Coaching;
- Pelvic Floor / Core Rehab inc Hysterectomy Recovery;
- Osteopenia & Osteoporosis;
- Personal Training;
- GP Exercise Referral.

If spinal flexibility and core strength equate to continued youth (and I think they do), Julia's classes will give you a new lease of life. For me she has been, and continues to be, a really inspirational teacher and if you're thinking about trying Pilates, I would recommend her wholeheartedly.

I started Pilates to help with chronic lower back and shoulder pain and after working with Julia am delighted to have overcome both of these problems. I now visit the osteopath only rarely and am delighted with the results.
