2025 Active Monash Award

Julie Jellis

As Principal Coach, Julie has been the heart and soul of Ceres Calisthenics Club since its inception in 1985.

Her dedication has left a lasting impact on generations of participants—from tiny tots as young as 3-year-olds to adults aged 35.  

Julie fosters a positive, inclusive and empowering environment that encourages physical activity, self-confidence, creativity and teamwork. Her leadership has helped build a strong family atmosphere, where members of all ages can connect, perform and thrive.  

With more than 250 pupils involved, the club has become a vibrant hub of the Monash community.
