About

Julie's teaching career began at The Birchwood Center in Nyack, NY in 2000 until it closed due to the Covid-19 crisis. In addition to her many workshops, she was also a faculty member and Assistant Director of the Birchwood Center’s Teacher Training Program for 7 years. 

​

Julie began her Zoom classes in April of 2020. Rather than finding it difficult, it's been a wonderful development of her teaching. The classes have a warmth and intimacy none of us could have anticipated.

​

She has taught Basic, Level I/II, Gentle Yoga, and private classes as well as developing and leading numerous workshops, study groups, meditation circles, and posture clinics.

​

From 2010-2022, Julie was an adjunct professor at Bronx Community College (BCC) teaching Stress Management and Intro. to Hatha Yoga.  At BCC, teaching students completely new to yoga, her respect for the usefulness and power of yoga deepened tremendously.  Students gradually tune into their bodies and discover that deep inner listening leads to healing and taking ownership of their lives.

​

Julie has also taught doctors, nurses, teachers, and staff members at Rockland Country Day School, Rockland Psychiatric Center, and The United Hospice of Rockland.

​

She has attended a variety of trainings and educational retreats with many excellent teachers including Sandra Anderson, Erich Schiffman, Shari Freidrichsen, Yoganand, and Judith Lasater, among others.
