Words from students

“I have attended many of Julias classes and they are by far my favourite weekly classes. The classes are so inspirational and made with creativity, that I can’t wait to explore the next pose and transition in the classes. The classes are explorative and the atmosphere that she creates always allows me to get to the core of myself and move freely. She uses music in a very smart way, it supports the practice and allows the students to really drop into the movement. All this together with Julias lovely personality and always a pinch of humor add up to my favourite yoga classes that I can’t wait to attend to again”

— Sara Andersson, Yoga Teacher

“Practising with Julia has brought my own yoga practice to the next level. Her way to lead the classes is out of this world, she is charming, she is inspiring, she is encouraging and she wants attendees show up for their authentic selves. I adore her style of teaching, not too serious and always some little humor included. Julia has this amazing talent to guide us with  such an inspiring and  heartfelt way that I really feel that warm inner emotion every time when I attend her class. She creates so  beautiful sequences with the the most divine music that I always feel the flow within me. So dreamlike. It’s never just a class with changing asanas.
I feel privileged that I have got the chance to attend her classes because she has helped me so much with my personal growth and not only with yoga but also living mindfully and developing my best self.”

— Nina Maisonen, Yoga Student

“Julia is a gemstone in the world of yoga, personal growth and movement: the way she holds space for you, challenges you, takes you on a journey within yourself and inlaces everything with nature and a deeper wisdom is truly unique and an unforgettable experience. I have had the privilege of practicing with her regularly, and the kind of catalyst she has been for me both personally and professionally remains one of the most meaningful things in my adult life. Her skilful teaching, deep presence, diverse toolkit and resonant vocabulary are one of a kind. She is not only a yoga teacher, but a facilitator of personal growth and deep empowerment.In Julia’s class you will feel seen, held and challenged in a unique combination, facilitated by her powerful presence, use of voice, skilfully selected music, creative asana sequences, free movement, meditation and somatic practices.I strongly recommend her offerings to anyone who is ready to take their practice to the next level, not afraid to look at their own shadow, embody everything they are — and then become authentic and empowered in all of it.”

— Sara Peltola, Yoga & Embodiment Teacher

“Julia captured me from the get go! The atmosphere she creates to the classes is magical with her presence, voice and her use of music! If you are someone who resonates to music like me, you have found the place to be! Her sequences are always very well thought through, and exciting because you will find yourself doing transitions you have never done before! The classes are also a very nice combination of stamina and strength as well as more relaxed poses, where you have proper time to listen to your body. And what I love about the classes, is that you truly are encouraged to listen to your body, there is no competition vibe what so ever and it feels like more of a natural way of moving, rather than trying to fit everyone in to the same mould.

Julia helped me a lot during the toughest time of my life by learning to love my body again. A body I felt was betraying me by being broken. She helped me to accept it and slowly but surely learn to forgive it, listen to it and understand it. 

I am so thankful I went to her class over a year ago and found her, I can’t recommend her enough!”

- Suvi Sipilä, Yoga Student

“I was hooked the from the first time and have since been taking Julia’s classes for a couple of years. And it’s certainly not just me - her classes fill out in a heartbeat and everyone I’ve taken there with me have said the same. Julia’s vinyasa classes are unique. They have that perfect balance of depth and realness, sweaty strength building and calmness, where you always challenge yet accept yourself the way you are that day. As a teacher she has that natural charisma and sense of humour that draws people to her. Couldn’t praise her classes more!”

-Petra Marttila, Yoga Student

“Julia is such an inspirational, kind and lovely person. Her classes are the best yoga classes I have ever attended to. I love the way she teaches and her classes have everything I need. The athmosphere, the music, everything. In Julia’s classes I have learned to listen what my body and mind needs and move my body with it. With help of her I’ve experienced such a deep connection with myself and learned tools I that I have used also outside the mat. Even though I’ve been going to her classes for over a year after I am still amazed how good I feel both mentally and physically after every class.”

-Vera Lammi, Yoga Student

“You are Julia one of the most amazing teachers I have ever met and practiced with. When you teach, you are fully THERE, and you can definitely sense it. That gift of being present for people is one of the best gifts you can ever give, if not the best.

For me that is one of the main reasons why I always feel so supported to practice with you. Your classes are so creative, inspiring and empowering, I love them.”

-Emmi Ohraniemi, Yoga & Embodiment Teacher

“Julia has been such an inspiration and the reason I have got back to a studio yoga practice. Attending her classes allow me to explore my physical and mental limits. She sets up her classes to be challenging but in a way where you can see yourself thrive! Highly recommend for ones who are eager to learn more about themselves, both their body and mind.”

- Pukhraj Ranjan, Yoga Student and co-founder of Moi Namaste

“Julia is the reason why I totally fell in love with yoga. She is a beautiful, kind and genuine soul, who always makes you feel welcome in her classes! She is a phenomenal teacher who makes you sweat, but still takes your mind to the magical space around you, it feels almost like a dream.  

Julias passion and charisma is just out of this world and her yoga classes are so unique, I would say they are more like ”journeys” to you inner world. Her voice and music just takes you and you wish that the class would never end. There is just so much feel in the air, EVERY TIME!  12/10”

- Nea Pitkä, Yoga Student

“Julia's yoga classes are more than yoga. Every class brings me to another world where I am able to experience things I didn't know were possible. I always feel so relaxed, empowered and full of love after her classes. Thank you for being such an inspiration and thank you for the way you see people.”

-Rosa Auffermann, Yoga Teacher

“Julia’s classes have introduced me to a new world: a yoga practice that empowers, challenges and lets you be there for yourself on the mat taking in all of yourself and let yourself soften. The combination of music, gentle and challenging movement with Julia’s kind approach let you get to know yoga in a whole new level. I always feel like I’m deeply present in the moment when I’m at Julia’s class and always leave feeling that I have something new with me. She is always attentive, kind and present in her teachings. I miss her classes and can’t wait to be there again!”

-Jemina Karjalainen, Yoga Student

Oh my goodness! I don’t even know how to put in words what your classes mean to me! But I’ll try! And feel free to use my name ️️️Julia is the most amazing yoga teacher! I’ve practiced yoga for awhile now, but she’s allowed me to see my yoga practice in a more meditative and mindful way. The way she introduces positions, sets up her classes, the music she plays creates such a special place to practice and tap into your inner voice. I love love love her classes and always leave feeling empowered and more connected to myself. Her class is my favourite form of self-love ️️️

-Katija Aladin, Yoga student 

Julia is having a unique style of teaching Yoga that gets my inner voice more self-confident and louder. With her teaching she has made me find feelings again that were lost. She has helped me to find my authentic self and to find and trust my inner movement and flow with it. Always waiting to get back to her classes!
