About Me

Get To Know Me

I’m Julie — a clinical and sports nutritionist, fitness professional, mother of two, researcher at heart, and a woman who has lived every chapter I now guide others through.

My work sits at the intersection of science and self-awareness. I believe the body is brilliant, adaptive, and always communicating — and when we learn to listen, healing becomes possible. My role is to translate complex biology into practical, sustainable strategies that support real women living real lives.

I don’t coach from theory alone. I coach from experience, empathy, and evidence.

My Experience

With over 17 years in the nutrition and fitness industry, I’ve worked across clinical, performance, and lifestyle-based wellness — guiding thousands of women toward stronger, healthier, more aligned lives.

I’m a Certified Clinical and Sports Nutritionist, former Fitness Manager at Equinox (rated #1 gym in America), and an experienced educator, speaker, and columnist for health and wellness organizations nationwide. I’m also the creator of Girl, Get Your Fit Together, an at-home, whole-body fitness and lifestyle program designed to meet women where they are — without extremes.

My academic foundation includes a Bachelor of Science in Nutrition, with advanced certifications through Precision Nutrition, the National Association of Nutrition Professionals, the American Fitness Professionals & Associates, and the National Council on Strength & Fitness. I’m currently completing my Master’s degree in Nutrition Science, deepening my focus on integrative, systems-based healing.

My Journey

Before the credentials, there was the journey.

I began as a professional dancer — immersed in movement, discipline, and performance — but also in a culture that quietly teaches women to critique their bodies. I heard the messages many women hear: too thick, not enough, do better.

Motherhood brought its own transformation — physically, hormonally, emotionally. I understood firsthand the frustration of weight that doesn’t respond the way it once did, the exhaustion of trying harder without feeling better, and the quiet heartbreak of feeling disconnected from your own body.

What changed everything wasn’t more discipline — it was understanding.

When I paired nutrition science with mindfulness, nervous system regulation, and compassion, emotional eating softened, metabolism recalibrated, and harmony returned. I learned that weight loss is chemistry — but healing is relationship.

My Journey

Above all, Julie is a passionate researcher of nutrition science who holds B.S. degree in the field. Certified in clinical and sports nutrition, she holds a variety of training certifications, and is currently completing her Masters degree in Nutrition Science.

Certified through Precision Nutrition, she is joining the National Association of Nutrition Professionals. As a master online fitness coach, Julie holds certifications in sports conditioning and pre-post natal from American Fitness Professionals and Associates and the National Council on Strength and Fitness.

My Method

Today, my work integrates evidence-based nutrition, functional systems thinking, movement, and mindfulness — because lasting change happens when the body and mind are supported together.

I take my clients’ journeys personally because I know what it feels like to walk this road. You don’t need more pressure. You need clarity, support, and a method that honors the woman you are becoming.

This is not about perfection.

It’s about alignment.

And when alignment happens, results follow — naturally.

Reviews

Gift yourself the time and self love to work with Julie Delabarre. Both her nutritional and kinesthetic knowledge are exceptional, full stop. But it’s her ability to break into an individual’s mindset and emotional motivations in regards to wellness that truly make her a holistic “triple threat”. I started working with Julie with the intention of developing a consistent strength workout, as well as establishing insights into realistic meal planning (as a busy working parent with a full schedule-ps. who doesn’t find themselves in this position one way or another?), and in addition to exceeding both of those goals, Julie nurtured a much deeper understanding of how I can view and experience health: mind, body, and spirit. Her care and generosity, on top of her world class experience, make working with Julie and the Little Black Dress program pure joy. With results.:)

Rachel H.

Fitness & Nutrition Client

“I love training with Julie, and I love the results I get from her workouts! I started training with Julie ten years ago when I was pregnant, and to this day she is still my fitness go-to. Unlike many other fitness programs, Julie keeps her workouts fast paced and exciting by constantly switching up exercises and equipment. I always leave my training sessions with her feeling strong, and that I did something special for myself. Julie truly understands the connection between emotional and physical well-being, and by really getting to know each of her clients and their goals, helps them achieve both.”

Jodie H.

Personal Client

“Julie was an incredible motivating force – pushing me to new levels of fitness that I never thought possible. Each time I swore I couldn’t lift another pound or run any faster, she would push me to try and consistently proved to me that I could do so much more than I thought I ever could. And each time I swore that I couldn’t see any changes in my body, someone would tell me how I had motivated them to start working out because of how great I looked.”

Jennifer M.

Bridal Client

“I must admit that my favorite part of working with Julie DelaBarre, would definitely be our weekly posing sessions. She taught me how to present my best physical attributes and how to use my elegance and grace as a dancer to illuminate on stage. After working with Julie for my second show, I felt so confident on stage and placed higher than my first show!”

Nicole R.

NPC Bikini Competitor

“I will not be able to write enough good words about Julie! When I started working with her I had zero experience on stage, in heels, or posing. She taught me how to walk confidently, find specific poses that flattered my body, and transition smoothly. I was like a four year old learning the steps but her patience and expertise allowed me to improve immensely! I could not recommend her more. Julie also covered my nutrition for my first bikini competition. I was able to gain 8lbs of muscle while losing 2% body fat. Her meal plans were easy to follow and on point. If you are looking to compete at a top level, or simply change your body composition, I highly recommend Julie.”
