Meet your teacher - Julie Craven

I worked as a registered nurse for 26 years but unfortunately I was forced to leave my nursing career behind me in 2014 due to degenerative disc disease. Fast forward to 2016, I commenced my Pilates training at the National Training Centre in Dublin and in July 2017 completed my Advanced Diploma in Pilates Matwork level 3.

I have always enjoyed being active and love swimming, a bit of cycling and hiking in the Mournes. I have developed a love for Pilates matwork and the fact that it is so versatile. You can bring a mat anywhere with you and squeeze in some Pilates practice, no excuses. I enjoy sharing my passion for movement with others and it is so gratifying watching others gain strength, move with more freedom and confidence through Pilates.
