Hi, I am Julie, a teacher at Shanti Yoga Center in St. Cloud, MN.
Yoga has been a part of my life for over 10 years, and my practice has helped me grow stronger, more flexible and grounded, both on and off the mat. Yoga inspires me to live each moment more mindfully. I completed my 200 hour Vinyasa Flow training with Dirtshi Beats Yoga and my Yoga sculpt advanced training with Core Power Yoga. I am also certified in Rollga, a foam rolling technique designed to release tension, increase mobility and keep you injury free as a recreational athlete or active person. Aerial Yoga is an expert teaching area for me. I have completed Unnata Aerial Yoga Level 1 & 2 and teach regular classes and workshops at Shanti Yoga Center.
When traveling I seek out studios to expand my experiences and will always be a student of the practice. My hope is that after attending class with me, you step off the mat feeling refreshed, nourished and balanced. I am beyond excited to join our community for a trip of a lifetime, a retreat in Spain! This will be a great opportunity for me to share my passion and knowledge for using the Rollga foam roller as a tool/resource in a yoga practice as well as guide students in morning flows in the beauty of a new country! I cannot wait to travel, practice and learn with you.
