About
Gary Carter and Julie Martin unite their extraordinary expertise and passion to present an unparalleled continuing education experience designed specifically for yoga and movement teachers
Teaching is an art in itself and whether it be yoga, pilates or other forms of movement it is easy to get stuck in technique, information overload or the fear of “getting things right”. This can prevent teachers from finding their flow, and truly being able to guide students with grace and wisdom, remaining engaging.
The magic of movement anatomy, sequencing, language and presence will be woven together in this exceptional 6-day course combining over 55 years of collective experience. Gary's remarkable knowledge of anatomy, fascia, and kinaesthetic awareness, and Julie's expertise as a vinyasa and movement specialist will create a transformative journey that will revolutionise your teaching and practice.
Throughout the course, you will unravel the interconnectedness of different areas of the body, understand how to work harmoniously with gravity, and bridge the gap between classical yoga and its modern interpretation. By integrating Gary's in-depth anatomy knowledge with Julie's empowering philosophy, you will gain the essential tools to create well-balanced classes that inspire your students and transform their relationship with yoga as a whole.

Hi, I'm Julie
I'm here to invite you into a practice that embraces your individuality and curiosity. An EMBODIED Yoga based on a sensory experience, free from outdated dogma and limited linear structures.
Raised as a Vedantist, I grew up immersed in the philosophy of yoga. In my 20's I began to practice asana and research different ways of moving while studying the history of yoga. The resulting discovery is that yoga is EVOLVING and always has, so we have permission to explore these practices, challenge the myths, and move forward with knowledge and awareness.
My mission is to EMPOWER your practice. To help find your own pace, fluidity, and strength in a structure that is an invitation, not a rule. Tap into your curiosity and trust your experience to take charge of your practice on and off the mat.
