Amanda Howard

 

Artistic Director & Choreographer

NCSF-Certified Personal Fitness Trainer & Health Specialist, Pre & Postnatal Fitness Specialist, and Athletic Injury Prevention Specialist

Functional Blood Chemistry Analyst

Amanda E. Howard specializes in functional training techniques and neuromuscular training for injury risk reduction. She teaches prevention methods for injuries and illness by instructing clients on how to maintain strength and endurance as well as cyclical training for healthy menstrual cycles and menopause. As a Pre & Postnatal Fitness Specialist, Amanda also offers prenatal strength training, and postnatal recovery.

In addition to fitness, Amanda also specializes in building nutrition programs to help clients maintain hormonal balance for healthy menstrual cycles, adrenal function, thyroid support, PCOS, and fertility, restore healthy liver, pancreatic, gallbladder, and thyroid function, and lower systemic inflammation. Hormones and the liver are the basis for most health issues women struggle with, including thyroid issues, which is why La Belle Vie, as a whole, heavily focuses on them.

Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis (FBCA) allows for additional support to provide Amanda with an in-depth look at her client’s bloodwork to assess functional decline and tackle it at its source. This is what ultimately elevates the nutrition programs La Belle Vie offers.

 

As a dance teacher, retired dancer, and Athletic Injury Prevention Specialist, Amanda works with athletes, dancers, and performers to help them with proper training techniques, flexibility and ROM training, strength, and movement. The goal of the specialized programs she has created is to provide a healthy, pain-free career and retirement without degradation to joints and important connective tissue.

Julia Howard

 

Assistant Artistic Director & Set Manager

Actor

Artist

From the moment Julia stepped onto the stage at nine years old, she knew that acting was a part of her calling.​ Since then, Julia has built up her resume performing in various theater productions, web series', and short films.

 

In 2022, she made her feature film debut in indie film "Glass Walls". Julia's most recent credits include an award-winning short film, "Orchid Island", in which she played an aspiring young dancer, and an indie film, "A Wave of Kindness", starring alongside Kevin and Braeden Sorbo.

Off-screen, Julia is also a passionate artist and small business owner of Art by Jules. Art has always been a passion of hers and it brings her so much joy to be able to share that passion with others. Edgar Degas once said, "Art is not what you see, but what you make others see." Her hope is that, through her art, you see the beauty, the perfections, and the imperfections of life. She is inspired by the fact that life is short and the world is wide. Bringing the beautiful places of this world right into your home is what she specializes in. Now, partnering with La Belle Vie Dance School & Company, Julia is able to use her artistic talents to create elaborate and beautiful performances for the community of Vero Beach.
