About Julia Hicks

Both my wife and I have been practicing with Julia for over a year now and can definitely say the following. Julia pours her heart and soul into each and every class and this is something very palpable to her students. Her attention to detail to engage all five senses of the yogis in her class places her a cut above the rest, from the incense she burns prior to class, to the mindfulness cards she distributes, the themes she's researching and renewing every two weeks as well as her encyclopedic knowledge of anatomy makes you fall in love with her and her classes. Needless to say, I've never experienced a teacher like Julia, and I've been practicing in Dubai for more than a decade, the personal touches she adds to her class make you feel special and strengthens the connection between teacher and student. Can't recommend her enough.

I have been practicing yoga for many years but didn't realize how much I still didn't know about my body and yoga until I tried Julia's classes. The small classes mean more individual attention and as a result, my practice has changed and improved a great deal. After Julia's classes I am calmer, more focused and have less aches and pains in my body. I am addicted to Julia's classes, her interesting flows, educational talks about the spiritual part of practice without going too deep. Julia's soothing voice and beautiful sequencing always ensures I float out of the studio at the end! Thank you Julia for amazing classes.

In particular I have been practicing with Julia Hicks 1:1 for a really specific (and rare) neck problem as well as attending her classes on a Mon and Weds at the studio. She is SO knowledgeable and I cannot believe I've had no pain from my neck today as a result of practicing together this morning. Julia is passionate about helping people and it's clear she loves to teach. She gives her time and experience so generously. A joy to learn from her guidance. I am in no way flexible or able to do the insta-yoga poses but it's actually not about that - I can personally vouch for the improvement spiritual and emotional well-being as well as the physical. All the classes are made up of such friendly and supportive members of this community. I have always felt welcome and those that are very advanced are inspiring and humble. Would recommend to everyone!

I've been going to group and private sessions with Julia for a few months now, and my only regret is not starting sooner! Not only is she very knowledgeable about yoga and human anatomy, but she's also a very warm and helpful person. I learn something new at every one of her sessions - important things that have put me on the road to a more balanced practice. Grateful to be in her circle 🙏🏻

Julia is a wonderful Yoga instructor, her sessions are always full of energy and spirit. She always takes the extra mile to check her student's individual performance, provides timely feedback for adjustment to improve and avoid injuries in parallel. I'm highly motivated to join every class and have improved significantly over time with her guidance. I highly recommend anyone to work with her regardless of their level of experience, she will definitely add value and improve your practice further.
