Julianna Crowder is a dreamer, teacher and community leader. Opening in 2001, she owned a successful dance studio in Leander which included an award winning Competitive Dance Company, Mother’s Day Out and Afterschool programs. She is proud that she was able to “help raise other people’s children” and contribute to the enrichment of hundreds of families in the Cedar Park/Leander community. In 2007 Julianna’s path took a very interesting turn, leaving her dance studio behind and pursuing a career in personal empowerment and self defense education. The last 14 years she has dedicated her life to this mission, with close to 10,0000 students attending various programs and in 2011 established a national organization for women. In December 2018 she felt her dance roots calling her home and the need for her body to move in a functional and meaningful way as injuries were becoming a more common occurrence in everyday activities. Julianna joined Club Pilates to rebuild her body and it wasn’t long before the educator inside of her was called. It has been her life long mantra… “If I can learn it I can teach it.” I am a Certified Pilates Instructor currently teaching at Club Pilates in the Austin Metro area, Lead Instructor at the Georgetown, Steiner Ranch and East Austin locations.

It is my goal to bring functional movement to all areas of life, specifically recreational and competitive shooting sports. We all need healthy strong bodies to enjoy shooting no matter if it is just plinking at the range or runin’ and gunnin’ in a match.
