Julia’s yoga has been such a gift.
Her attention to our individual needs and recognition of our different bodies and capabilities is just wonderful. I have been to both in person classes and zoom classes and Julia’s ability to clearly describe and model the movements in such detailed ways make the zoom classes great. I love the non striving gentleness of the relaxations and am so grateful for Julia’s yoga which has been such a support getting through lock down.
