Julia Harrer

With an undergraduate in Psychology (focus on Developmental Psychology) from SUNY at Purchase,  and a Graduate Degree in Education from Manhattanville College, Mom of two wonderful young men, Julia Calabrese-Harrer began her journey as a yoga instructor after graduating from the RajaHatha School of Yoga and achieving her Registered Yoga Teacher Certification (200+hrs) in August of 2013. Julia first began practicing yoga in college, and continued to practice through her adult life, two pregnancies, and now, in her “fantastic fifties!” She chooses to practice Hatha Yoga with a focus on alignment because this approach has best helped her to connect and unionize (yoga) with body and mind.

Julia’s Mission Statement:  To create an internal view of self that is free and full of curiosity.   Through this innocent and fun lense of self, not only is  the space to investigate and educate the physical body provided in a judgement free zone, but the practitioner is  provided the opportunity to see and nurture the child within toward wellness in the present.  In this inquisitive place, practitioners shine light within themselves for physical benefits, but  importantly, shine light for their subtle, emotional well being.  This light illuminates from the inside, being more readily turned out, integrating the power within with the power out.  Julia will help you access this conduit of curious investigation through Hatha Yoga Techniques, such as breathwork, physical asanas, and meditation.
