With over twenty five years as a costume designer & stylist Julie exited the frenzied film industry once she understood the transformative power of yoga. With over 1000 teacher training hours and over a decade of teaching experience Julie has owned two studios, runs international retreats and teacher training programs and was recently featured in Conde Nast Traveller as “One of the best yoga retreats in the UK and Ireland for 2024”

“I believe in the power of yoga and its healing abilities to help see through the muck. The practice is linked with life - how we measure ourselves on the mat is how we measure ourselves in everyday life. If we are willing to study the self, we begin to understand that we have to experience all the feelings to gain wisdom, not just the ones we like. It's a daily exercise of self-development that helps us connect to an inner strength we already have within and just like treasure, it requires some digging.”

“To maintain a sense of humor and attempt to understand 

that how we do one thing is how we do everything.”

Julie currently directs Identity Yoga in New York’s Hudson Valley and is heavily influenced by the Iyengar practice (creatively sequenced classes with a focus on precise alignment). Julie’s love for the practice is rooted in its ability to drop the stories we drag around and how we can expand into our inherent potential. She is less interested in fancy poses and more interested in how we treat ourselves along the way. The continual practice teaches us compassion, forgiveness and how to accept ourselves just as we are. It's how we stay open and graceful. 

In her off time, you can find her frolicking around the Hudson Valley with her pup-baby Sunny.
