Julie has taught yoga to older people, and people with mental health problems. The simple breathing, meditation and relaxation, techniques of yoga contributed greatly to her own recovery and healing from breast cancer a few years ago, and she says: 'The experience left me with a deeper trust in the power of yoga to help us through life and a stronger commitment to passing on what I know of yoga to others.'

She also gives workshops and training days on the theme of yoga as a source of inner strength and healing in times of crisis.
