All Bodies Trainers
Julie Stone
Owner of All Bodies Community + NASM, CPT
My passion for helping others started with my own story. I have Charcot Marie Tooth, type 2A and I have always been active. Although, in the past, I've struggled with finding exercises that were right for my body. I would either end up in situations where the exercises were damaging unsafe for me to do OR I would end up in situations where the person leading the exercise would be so afraid of me falling, that they would baby me- either way, the exercises weren't beneficial at all! Finally I decided to learn more about fitness and CMT and melded them together. Durring my time as a personal trainer, I've worked with dozens of CMTers helping them find safe and effective ways to exercise. Through the fitness programs we offer at All Bodies Community, the members I've worked with have gone on to feel more confident in their everyday lives. When you work with me, I want you to listen to your body and do what is best for it. I want you to strive to be the best version of yourself and I believe each fitness journey is unique and ever-evolving. During our time together, I'll challenge you to create goals for yourself AND encourage you to love your body during every step of the process. I can't wait to start working with you!

NETA, CPT
I enjoy sharing my knowledge of how important it is to be healthy and fit through heart, mind, soul, and body. Since we all age and most develop some kind of challenge, this will allow people to enjoy life better, move longer and enjoy being around family and friends. Movement is so important to us all especially if we have challenges, such as CMT, that affect us in different ways over time.
Although I have a neuromuscular disease, Charcot Marie Tooth Disorder (CMT2A) that tries to limit me, I have put my fitness experience and training to use, changing and modifying workouts as needed. Over the years, I have changed what I've done physically to match my challenges at the current level. I have been a gym rat, ran and biked for enjoyment, to the various walking/jogging and hiking to backpacking, biking, to getting back into the gym for myself. Since becoming a group fitness and personal trainer to help others with their fitness goals, I mainly wants to show and teach people that they can move, it just might be different than the way their friends and family move. Exercising and eating mostly healthily can slow or stop the progression of many diseases. So let’s all move more today than we did yesterday. Keep on Keeping on.
