Julie (Ed.D., E-RYT 500, YACEP) has been practicing yoga for more than 30 years and teaching since 2004. She completed her 200- and 500-hour yoga teacher training with Patty Townsend. Her approach combines the fluidity of vinyasa yoga with functional movement, mindful breathing, and an emphasis on strength, mobility, and balance.
Drawing on her extensive experience as an educator, yoga teacher, and mindfulness practitioner, Julie believes that yoga should adapt to the individual, rather than the individual adapting to yoga. Her personal meditation practice and experience teaching mindfulness inform her approach to creating thoughtful, accessible classes.
Julie encourages students to explore movement with curiosity rather than perfection, adapt postures to their individual needs, and develop a practice that supports them through life’s changes. Her classes offer a welcoming environment where students can build confidence, cultivate awareness, and enjoy the benefits of mindful movement
