Julie teaches the following yoga styles:
- Hatha Yoga – involves a series of asanas (postures), with focus on breathing and alignment. Poses are challenging in that they are held longer than in other styles. Pranayama (breath exercises) and meditation are an integral part.
- Vinyasa Flow – flowing from one pose to the next , harmonising breath and movement. Vinyasa can be either slow flow or dynamic flow.
- Dynamic yoga – similar to vinyasa flow with increased emphasis on cardio and fitness.
- Yoga to fix an injury – specialised yoga and treatments for students with particular pains and injuries.
- Pregnancy Yoga – cultivating strength, flexibility and breath awareness for mothers-to-be and new mothers. Poses are modified to suit the stage of pregnancy.
- Relaxation / Yoga Nidra – A guided class of complete relaxation. Usually 30 minutes – 60 minutes long, the class consist of guidance through a ‘yogic-sleep’ which leads to complete relaxation while maintaining total awareness. Benefits of yoga nidra include improved concentration, improved mental clarity and release of muscle tension, stress and anxiety.

Classes can be tailored to the company and can include chair yoga, and strategies for stress management through meditation and pranayama.
