"Participating in the series of Chakra classes with Julie was more than just the experience of taking a class-it was a period of transformation. It's an experience that provides the tools and the insight to learn much about the universe and those around you-and especially about yourself and how to maintain balance within-by providing practical steps that you can return to again and again throughout your life.  You are given the in-depth knowledge and practices that you need to work on each Chakra, both individually and as they relate to each other.  She provides a safe place, nurturing and creative environment in which to learn, and fills the space with peace and beautiful energy.  No matter what your present frame of reference, point of view or faith may be-you will be better, healthier person for having taken these classes."

"Pyramid Lake was life changing for me!  Julie took us outside the walls of a studio and the familiar grip of the yoga mat and taught us to trust the earth.  Nestled in a cove aside "the mother stone" we grounded our feet deep in the uneven sand, full of tiny curled shells of the purest white.  The soft mantra music in the studio was replaced by the serene stillness of water which hardly moved and we could hear the exchange of our own breath.  The place was as powerful as the practice.  It was exposed, there were no trees, no telephone poles...everything looked bare.  The tufa rock formations changed with every shift in the sun and when the full moon rose I was in awe of how alive I felt, how grateful for this Earth. It was a place with room to breathe, no expectations, just taking you as you are and becoming part of it.  Thank you for such a blessed and unique experience.  Julie's classes are about becoming whole and balanced, and this place, combined with the drums and the meditative yoga, was more than replenishing.  It filled a void. It healed.  Thank you."  ~A.C.

 

 

"I had always practiced Yoga at home and was self taught.  I never truly appreciated the art of Yoga until I went to one of Julie's classes.  She is one of the most inspirational people I know.  She has helped me appreciate and understand Yoga in a way I never thought I could achieve.  My emotional and physical well-being has improved dramatically and I continue to look forward to attending Julie's classes."  ~M.P.

 

 

"I started Julie's yoga classes primarily to further my spiritual growth, and have already learned a great deal. Julie teaches so much more than simply the physical benefits of yoga - although they are significant - and she freely shares positive energy with every class. This is a wonderful and enjoyable way to improve your health, flexibility, psychological balance and overall wellbeing." ~S.K.

 

 

"In my life time I have learned many things and of these is that knowledge is of little value with out wisdom. Its like reading a book full of facts and never using what you have learned or never being shown how to use the tools that you are given. .Julie has given me the tools and shown me in practice how to use those tools. I shall forever be grateful for her teachings and patience." ~D.C.

A poem I wrote about my first yoga class. I have participated in two so far. I am so pleased to share with Julie and others in this quest for spiritual growth.

I rest beneath a blanket of purple

Here in this confining room
Dim with silence
My breath is restricted
A resistance surfaces
From the deepest part of my soul
A resistance
With substance of its own

Yet there is a universal love
A sacred and undaunting love
That nurtures a longing inside of me
A yearning
To breathe in life again
Into the core of my very own existance

Here in this tiny room
In a potentially endless moment
Time does stand still
With no beginning and no end

Seizing this opportunity
With arms open to the sky
I welcome the spirit of my earth mother
And embrace the frightened child within me
As a fragile yet essential part

In the grander scheme of things

Curled into the fetal position
I rest beneath a blanket of purple
Safe from the listless world outside

"Since I have been taking Julie's yoga classes for a little over a year, I have learned so much & gained a lot of strength & flexibility. I have just finished her 7 week Chakra Class and would like to recommend it to anyone who wants to get in touch with their mind, body, and spirit. Julie is such an inspirational teacher who showed me how to heal myself. Thank you from my heart!" ~S.H.
