Julia Pearring, ECAT, C-IAYT, supports students in the exploration of their optimal range, to uncover the strength and potential of a deeper alignment no matter their range of movement. Through her integrated focus on the body’s innate wisdom and movement and the principles of Anusara yoga she has become a teacher’s teacher, inspiring fellow teachers and students to discover more in their practice. She has developed fresh and successful continuing education courses and teacher training modules and has organically built a thriving private therapeutic yoga practice. Julia lives and teaches in NYC, where she is the managing director of the World Yoga Center. Julia teaches Anusara Yoga retreats, trainings and travels to teach in Anusara Yoga communities. She leads online courses through her online platform, The Bond of Asana (bondofasana.com). Recently, she co-wrote the new Therapueutic Applications of Anusara Yoga Teacher’s Guide.

Julia first discovered Anusara Yoga in 2005. Through the years of discovery and grace-filled experiences, she has come to trust and rely on the Universal Principles of Alignment’s unfathomable depth and potential of refinement when working with her students. She is dedicated to staying inextricably linked to the Tantric scriptures and her Guru to support her personal path and to feed her teaching practice. Her advanced studies have included extensive anatomy, kinesiology and physiology training through cadaver dissections with Gil Hedley, explorations of Body Mind Centering and Laban Movement analysis with Amy Matthews plus fascial research with Tom Myers, and more. Julia strongly believes that an active sadhana, basing one’s personal practice on self inquiry and compassionate process, is invaluable for yoga teachers and practitioners.
