About Joanne
Movement has been a huge part of Joanne’s life since childhood when she became an avid athlete in gymnastics, tennis, ice skating, netball, swimming, trampolining, and eventually, dance.
Joanne started her own highly successful dance school at age 23, teaching jazz, tap, ballet and drama to students aged 3-18—many of whom went on to pursue professional careers. But 5 years into her career, Joanne developed severe glandular fever (mononucleosis), leaving her bedridden for 6 weeks.
After a friend insisted she try Pilates, Joanne not only regained her health and fitness, but felt stronger and fitter than she had ever been in her life. It became her mission to help others heal their pain and start living their lives to the fullest again.
In 2003, Joanne studied anatomy and physiology, graduating after one year with High Distinction before earning her Post Graduate Certificate in the Pilates Method at the University of Technology, Sydney in 2004 with Distinction.
Following graduation, Joanne became a member of the Pilates regulatory body the APMA (Australian Pilates Method Association) and most recently, the PAA (PIlates Association Australia) when the two bodies merged.
Nearly 20 years later, Joanne has helped hundreds of people overcome chronic pain with Pilates and enjoy active, healthy lives through to retirement and beyond. Her online library of on-demand videos, available at JS Mind Body Pilates, helps clients get results from the comfort of their own homes wherever they are in their health and fitness journey.
