About me - Julie Wrigley

A movement explorer, restorer & guide

I enjoy helping people rediscover a love of movement - even after tricky times or injuries.

Never a natural mover

I was a bookish child who increasingly felt that sports & movement was not for me. I was ashamed of my flat feet, painful toes and congenitally clunky hips.

Joyful learnings in later life

I have found out that meaningful change is possible. With patient progression and a playful approach to training, my pain and stiffness have dissolved. I now hike for miles without tiring, cycle around town, play energetic Taiko Japanese drumming, strength train and am practising for my first adult handstand!

My training

The Foot Collective

TFC are a worldwide collective led by physiotherapists and podiatrists. They are working to provide relief from pain, restore function and expand whole body movement capacity with a feet-first, ground-up approach.

I attended their TFC Guide certification in Bristol in 2025 and am working towards becoming fully certified as a TFC Guide during 2026.

Feldenkrais London

I trained for four years as a Feldenkrais Practitioner (to 2020). I have taught group classes since 2018 and bodywork 1:1s since 2020. This is a somatic (mind-body) movement method for sensory inside-out learning, body awareness and nervous system self-regulation.

Personal self-discovery

My own explorations in strength training, mobility, natural ground-based movement & other routes to recovery from persistent pain and severe vertigo.
