Private Yoga

Many people seek private instruction for a more persona, focused practice, as well as to fit in with their schedule. For those wanting to progress at their own pace, private classes seem to work best. In addition, a carefully constructed practice (Vinyasa Krama) postures linked to breath in a specifically arranged sequence is created just for you, with your needs in mind.

Sessions for the absolute beginner to advanced students, and can be taught one-on-one, in twos, or small groups of friends.

For all ages, stages, and conditions: I offer global private sessions on Zoom or in-person at my home studio in Berkeley, California. I specialize in creative sequencing, or work with you using yoga to support emotional issues, chronic pain, injury and other conditions. 

Yoga Therapy + Trauma Informed Yoga

Yoga therapy is an aspect of yoga adapting the various practices to the individual for healing purposes: postures, breathing, meditation, ritual, the texts of yoga, and sound are woven together to integrate body, mind and purpose as well as to heal injury, illness and emotional imbalance. Yoga therapy is also preventative, helping to maintain an optimum state of health for life.

Julie specializes in treating anxiety, depression, developmental + shock trauma and related issues using the body as a resource, the tools of postures, vinyasa krama, and specific breathing practices, in combination with tracking sensations. She has many years of training and experience in the field of yoga therapy for healing, and completed a personal individualized training at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram in Chennai, India specifically in yoga therapy. Trauma Informed means you, as the client, always have choices and are never pushed into something you do not agree to. It always means that you are the authority of your own experience. We go slowly, titrating and regulating sensations, + emotions.

The Yoga of Sound

For those interested in incorporating a simple practice of Nada Yoga, or the yoga of sound, and sound healing, we will use ancient mantras, chants and songs as part of your personalized practice.
