An avid runner and triathlete with a passion for dance and music, Julie is competitive, active, and serves as a mentor for many new athletes – both adults and children. Julie has 18 years of experience studying and performing dance.
In 2006, seizing new opportunities to grow and learn, Julie expanded her practices to include yoga. She has studied and practiced several types of yoga, teaching her emotional elements and body awareness, which combine beautifully with her fitness and dance activities. In 2007, Julie opened World of Dances studio where she teaches, encourages, and supports women of all ages. In 2016, Julie achieved a 3HO accreditation in Kundalini Yoga, and in 2017 she added a Level 2 certification.
Julie developed BalloFlex in 2010 after a serious car accident uprooted her life. BalloFlex became her sole workout in the months that followed. She credits the program with toning and trimming her body while helping to improve her mood and attitude.
With BalloFlex, Julie teaches others to have strong, toned muscles without spending hours in the gym. Julie is committed to bringing fun, fitness, and satisfaction to people of all ages, skills, and levels of capability.
She’s excited to share this excellent program with you to help you achieve your fitness goals!

BalloFlex Corporate Wellness Programs
BalloFlex gives people, that don’t have the time or ability for traditional exercise programs and gyms, the advantage of feeling better and building confidence. Students learn a series of dance steps while learning how to move with the music, count the beats, and transition into different moves. No other lunchtime program does all of these things without requiring employees to change their clothes or work up a sweat- you can even participate while wearing heels or dress shoes!
BalloFlex currently conducts classes at lunchtime and even after-hours. Classes can be held in the lunchroom, cafeteria, conference room, or any open space within your building making BalloFlex one of the most flexible options on the market today.
