Meet Julie – Your Teacher and Guide in Peterborough
Julie's whole world changed during COVID.
After 27 years of teaching dance in the Peterborough area – pouring her heart into her studio and her students – she had to make the gut-wrenching decision to close her doors.
And then? Life kept coming. She got married (the good part). But she also lost her father. And her best friend. All within months of each other.
So there she was... grieving, processing, trying to figure out who she even was anymore without the studio that had defined her for nearly three decades.
That's when she found yoga teacher training at Peterborough Yoga and Wellness.
Not because she wanted to teach. She didn't. She just needed a way to move through the grief. To breathe again. To feel like herself.
But here's what happened:
As Julie blended her lifetime of dance experience with what she was learning about yoga, breathwork, and mindful movement... something clicked. She felt that old, familiar pull. The one that had driven her for 27 years. The pull to share this with others in her community.
And that's how Inspired Movement by Julie was born.
Teaching at Two Peterborough Studios, Creating One Healing Space
Today, Julie teaches at both Peterborough Yoga and Wellness and runs her own heart-centered studio right here in Peterborough – offering Total Barre, ZEN-GA, Yoga and Rebounding classes that support not just your strength and mobility... but your emotional well-being too.
Because Julie gets it. She's been through it.
She creates small-group classes in Peterborough where you are seen, supported, and never, ever judged – whether you're brand new to movement or returning after years (or decades) away.
Her goal is beautifully simple:
To help people in Peterborough feel better in their bodies, sleep more deeply, and rediscover the pure joy of moving again.
No pressure. No perfection. No pretending you're someone you're not.
Just you, your mat, and a teacher who genuinely cares about helping you feel good again.

What others are saying
I felt great after the first class "I was disappointed I missed the second night. I felt great after the first one. Would be interested in doing more for sure. Slept really well last night. I went there feeling very stiff and a kink in my shoulder. It is now gone. Feeling much better and relaxed."
I felt really good. Slept great! "Hey Julie, I felt really good. Slept great! No stiffness or soreness at all; which I attribute to the stretching. Bought myself a lacrosse ball this weekend too."
“The best workout I’ve ever had — and I didn’t even notice I was exercising.”
More Ways to Feel Good in Peterborough
Look, Julie's yoga, barre, and rebound classes will absolutely transform how you feel.
But sometimes? You need something different.
That's why Julie also offers two other ways to support your well-being right here in Peterborough – because sometimes your body (and soul) need something completely different.
Rest and Restore Hot Stone Therapy
Sometimes the best thing you can do for your body is simply... be still.
Let the warmth of smooth stones melt away layers of tension you didn't even know you were holding. This isn't surface-level relaxation – it's the kind of deep, restorative work that reaches your nervous system and whispers, "It's safe to let go now."
Perfect for when you're:
- Carrying stress in your shoulders, neck, or back
- Feeling mentally exhausted and physically drained
- Overdue for hitting the reset button on your well-being
Walk in tight. Walk out transformed.
Line Dancing – Get Your Groove On!
Here's what makes line dancing absolutely brilliant: it's pure joy.
No partner required. No pressure to be perfect. No spending hours learning choreography before your first class.
Just infectious music, easy-to-follow steps, and a room full of people who showed up for the same reason you did – to smile, move, and actually enjoy themselves.
Whether you've never danced a step in your life or you've been dancing for decades, you'll fit right in. And honestly? This might just become the highlight of your week
Whether you need deep restoration, joyful movement, or both...Julie's here to support your well-being in Peterborough
