Hi! I'm Juliet!
I am a Pilates teacher with (can't quite believe this) over 20 years experience in the fitness industry.
Prior to that, I worked in professional showjumping and Polo competition yards and horses were my whole life from childhood. Sport and fitness has always been a huge feature, since my schooldays.
I have two grown up daughters and I live in the New Forest with my dogs Bertie and Gretl.
I love skiing, cycling and hiking with my dogs.
In 2004 I took my daughters out of school for year to backpack around the world, during which time we survived the Boxing Day Tsunami.
