I was blessed to be there when Jill Healy-Quintard opened the box with her first book “YogaPilates Fusion” in it.

Jill is an amazing 64 year old woman who is a recognised leader in an industry that tends to be dominated by younger people.

Jill timed the launch of her book to coincide with the announcement of “Group Fitness Instructor” for 2019 which is a prestigious award issued by Fitness Australia.

Jill was in the top five but didn’t make it to number one. That matters not because she is a shining light for those of us who are not part of the youth cohort that the fitness industry is best known for.
