We did it 💜 MSc Speech and Language Therapy graduation 2026!

Alongside teaching Les Mills classes, I’m incredibly grateful to work as a Speech and Language Therapist.

Throughout this experience, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of client groups. I’ve learned the importance of listening, building trust, and working collaboratively to find meaningful ways forward for each individual 💜

I’m passionate about raising awareness of communication differences, including stammering and Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), and advocating for greater understanding within our communities and beyond. There is always more to learn, and I’m grateful for every opportunity to grow alongside the people I support.

A special thank you to @benboltonslt, who encouraged me to think differently, challenged me to keep learning, and supported me as I stepped outside of my comfort zone. I’m so grateful for your guidance, and for everyone else who has supported me along the way.

Here’s to creating safe, supportive communication spaces where everyone feels heard, valued, and confident communicating in the way that works best for them. 💜 by @jesshues

Somehow I locked myself out of my old Instagram account, which had a lot of photos from when I lived in Taiwan. My current account mainly focuses on my journey with Les Mills, but I want to open up more about this part of my life too.

From 2018 to 2022, I lived here as an English teacher. When I moved back to the UK, I had 4 years of memories which felt like dreams and I was now thinking in two languages 🥹. It was a little disorienting. I came back a different person and tried to fit back into spaces that had changed as much as I had.

Over time, I found ways to integrate both parts of myself: the girl who had to adapt quickly to living abroad, and the girl who returned, not wanting to change too much because those habits were a way of keeping those memories alive. I built up a lot of resilience during those years, and Taiwan will always have a special place in my heart ❤️

Some of my favourite photos:

1. My sister @cezahugs visiting me for the first time since I moved. We climbed Elephant Mountain 象山 and queued a long time to take this picture with Taipei 101.
2. Sunset at Tamsui River in Taipei.
3. Camping in the central mountains (南投). I learned a few lessons about mosquitoes 😂
4. Water buffaloes in Yang Ming Shan! It was so much cooler in the high mountains.
5. Visiting my friend’s family in Tainan. I loved seeing where the city met nature.
6. My friend @luckyruby1031 Ruby Roo in a bar in my city.
7. Taipei Pride - my first Pride 🏳️‍🌈
8. The tea mountains in Maokong.
9. A memorable tea ceremony with @girl10244
10. 11. Weekly hikes in Dakeng.
11. A bakery in Taichung.
12. My sister, @_yii.h_ , picking me up in a matching outfit with iced tea to climb for the afternoon.

Thank you for reading! I can’t do short posts and each photo deserved a little description 💗 I have so many more pictures but these are some of my favourites ☺️ by @jesshues

Thank you August ✨💫 so many things to be grateful for and so many small meaningful moments that I will keep safe in my heart 💞

It’s also only when people tell me goodbye that I really appreciate how temporary things are, which makes sharing spaces and time together to move, laugh and love even more special 🥹Wishing everyone leaving lots of luck, happiness and all the best as we move into our next chapter 🙏💞

Here we go 🥹🌱 Our first Saturday Bodybalance ✨

This felt like planting a seed, and I feel even more moved towards nurturing this space and conveying the essence of this beautiful programme. I hope for us all to feel the incredible benefits - strength, flexibility, and mental calm.

Taking the step to join also starts with a simple mental shift, like planting a seed, and I hope I can honour that decision by offering a space that allows your practice to unfold naturally.

What beautiful, gentle energy for a Saturday. Thank you for joining me 🙏🥹

A full-circle moment with @movement_ismedicine and Les Mills Pilates 💫💫

An incredibly special opportunity to team-teach alongside the wonderful human who helped train and certify me in this magical programme. A huge thank you to Tine and @westwoodclub Clontarf for making us both feel so welcome — just beautiful energy all round, from the city to the sea 🌊 I feel very, very blessed.

A special thank you to @crazyfitnesspsychlo for joining me on this journey, for your joy, support and friendship (and for an incredible BodyAttack class with @ciara.foley_ ! 😍). Two full days of food, fun and laughter that I’ll treasure forever.

Thank you, Dublin, for the memories and a very beautiful full-circle moment 💫✨

Big THANK YOU ✨✨✨

These past few weeks, I’ve had opportunities to connect with this community through programmes I don’t teach as often!

Les Mills Yoga has been shared with more people, which makes me super happy, and I had the opportunity to teach Yin, something I’ve wanted to do for a while 🙏 Les Mills Dance and BodyPump too!

I also read a letter I wrote to myself back in February 2025. It was titled “Let Love In”, and it was powerful to reflect on how much has changed since then.

I feel surrounded by love every day and incredibly lucky to be able to share these spaces ❤️✨

I hope you enjoyed trying these classes and I’m so excited for Bodybalance ✨🙏 awesome team 💪 by @jesshues

So grateful to dance, connect, and share this space with such amazing people.

A little reminder to stay kind, stay true, and keep showing up! Even when the world gives you reasons not to ❤️ remember how far you’ve come 🙌
