TESTIMONIALS

Julie’s retreat was everything I needed and more! I went in with very little expectations besides strengthening my yoga practice but what I actually received was a strengthened relationship with myself. I released so much negative blockage that had been subconsciously weighing me down and left the retreat feeling renewed and restored. If you are thinking about going don’t hesitate just do it. Julie has the most beautiful soul and amazing energy that you just feel so good being in her presence while thriving in the jungle alongside the ocean.

"This retreat was the best gift I could have given to my body. Within the first 24 hours I could feel a shift in my energy. Each day included a different variation of activities dedicated to moving the body, increasing awareness in the present moment, and nurturing the mind. It was a perfect getaway to re-ground and re-center; I would definitely do it again."

I recently had the privilege of attending a retreat that has left an indelible mark on my life! It was not just a getaway, but an immersive experience that fostered deep connections with like-minded individuals and provided the perfect environment for self-reflection and personal growth.

I attended one of Julie's retreats and she is a truly inspiring woman. Not only did she reignite my joy for movement, she was also very approachable as a person, caring and even spoiled us with her cooking and baking. You can clearly feel how she pours her creativity and love into every retreat. Thank you so much, Julie!

We attended one of Julie’s retreats in February. It was truly an amazing experience all around, between the house we stayed in, the activities, the yoga/Pilates, and the food she made for us 2x a day was just perfect. Julie is so lovely and makes you feel like your best self after leaving her classes. Highly recommend doing one of her retreats and/or class, you will not regret It!

Simply magical ✨ in reality it’s much more than retirement itself! Julie loves taking care of people and her values ​​are inspiring. My meeting with Julie really had an impact on me 😍 I was looking for a place to disconnect while feeling at home and it was so much more than expected. I can't wait to come back and share new precious moments at "This way" ♥️♥️♥️ Julie is the best and the quality of her classes is just incredible!

Highly highly recommend!! It was so hard to find the right information on how to work out with a belly and I almost didn't do it - until I worked out with Julie!!! She showed me how strong and how capable the body is during pregnancy and it made me feel 10x better to actually work out and feel strong - both for birth and recovery! She knows what she is doing - for any pregnant women - I cannot recommend it enough. It changed everything for me!!

This woman can simply do everything! She is simply an all-round talent. Not only does she have an insane talent for teaching (be it yoga, pilates or meditation) but also such a wonderful character, great cooking skills and a voice that puts everyone and everything at ease. This Way Movement is simply her passion. The retreat far exceeded my expectations. It was an incredibly great journey to myself! There were so many experiences. One of them was to observe my own development. I was also touched by the participants, who opened up more and more each day and friendships were formed as a result. It was an incredible experience that I can only recommend to everyone.
