Julie Abbott
Julie has had a wonderful first year of teaching at GR in 2025 and will continue to nurture and help the 13 yrs - 1st yr seniors tackle the challenging and awe-inspiring syllabus in 2026.
Dani Stewart
Physie is Dani’s happy place, and this is clear when she’s teaching a physie class or drilling alongside amazing friends. Dani is most proud when she watches it ‘click’ for her students and they perform to the best of their ability.
Kerri McDermott
​Kerri’s passion for physie is as strong today as her first class as a 3yr old. Kerri has many years of experience and a love and enthusiasm for teaching and supporting our ladies to be their best.
Mandy Flecknoe
There is no one better to be looking after our preschoolers than Mandy. Both an accomplished physie lady & the Director of an Early Childhood Centre, Mandy strikes the right balance between fun and learning and the girls adore her.
Grace Haskew
Grace joins the GR Teaching Team as a junior helper in 2026. Grace has been doing physie since she was 5 years old and looks forward to sharing her love of physie with our junior girls.
Janet Beaumont
Our mature ladies are in safe hands with Janet. An accomplished physie lady, Janet now leads the ladies through a series of gentle exercises with great care and guidance.
