Julie Bartley - Nia Brown Belt Instructor
Julie is a trained Nia teacher and comes from a dance and healing arts background. She has a Diploma in Shiatsu and Aromatherapy, a Dip Ed (Prim) and has completed the Journey Practitioner Program.
My passion sustains my teaching - I am interested in discovering the key that self motivates us to return to classes that enhance our vitality and well being. I know that Nia feeds my life force and offers tools for the best life my body can offer. And sometimes as a student of Nia I experience uncomfortable sensations where I feel out of my comfort zone, yet the joy that is present and palpable carries me through. I can then step out into life where this supportive, loving energy sustains me for when the going gets tough and the opportunity for self healing.

Student feedback
I feel like my body has woken from a deep sleep. There are many areas that have been dormant for a while and I feel a slow and exquisite awakening! I saw my chiro after my second Nia class and for the first time in years he didn't have to adjust my neck or re-align my hips! Nia is truly healing!
Julie - Goldcoast
What Nia has done for me is bring me back into my body in a playful, creative, safe and coordinated way. After every class I feel transformed on all levels. I love the community of dancers that Nia attracts.
Turiya, Ocean Shores
I have been dancing with Julie Bartley for some weeks now and find it to be completely liberating. Not only does it resonate with me physically but also mentally and spiritually. I have had chronic pain in my right hip and I have found that the dance loosens up this area of my body and I no longer suffer this pain.
Laura Booth, Ocean Shores
I've done many many forms of exercise ranging from aerobics to iyengar yoga but having had just a sample of NIA, I can see that it 'takes the cake' --- in fact it's the cherry on top! For me it is delightful to move to funky music, dance, be creative, tone and strengthen and above all, it is fun.
Annette Janover, Byron Bay
"Nia has been a liberating, relaxing and self healing experience that I intend to incorporate into my life. The benefits I have felt are numerous including: easing pressure on my lower back caused by scoliosis, curvature of the spine. Julie provides an atmosphere where you are free of inhibitions and open to connect with your body, mind and spirit. I get fit and have fun as well!".
Kristin, Mullumbimby
The Nia dance classes with Julie are what I've been looking for: a
chance to experience the joy and aliveness in my body, re-awaken forgotten bits of myself and make new discoveries, as well as get fit. After a class I feel good for the rest of the day. It's easy and enjoyable to move in this way.
Jade, Pottsville
