My Story

My name is Julia Potter and I run JP Active Kids.

I am a qualified Primary School teacher and have taught children from Year 1-Yr3 for over 6 years in Redditch. I left the profession to spend more time with my own young family, as I am a mother of two girls.

Since leaving full-time teaching I moved into the fitness world and began teaching adult group exercise classes. Quickly I returned to educational settings but this time with fitness in mind.

I began teaching various active, afterschool clubs and have been lucky enough to run many fun fitness sessions for a number of primary and secondary schools during their sports weeks.

After Covid hit I looked at how I could help the younger children, those in early years education, to become more active and improve their physical development. I began the Movin Monkeez classes with Reception classes and Private nurseries to create fun and exciting ways to get children moving.

I have most recently begun offering bespoke party entertainment to families in the area.
