Our Team
Julie Auma
Founder , Yogi and Yoga Teacher
Julie is a certified (200hr and Level 2) Baptiste Power Yoga and YOD Yoga (Level 1 & 2) teacher living, working and practising in Nairobi, Kenya. She sought out yoga after her best friend suggested that she try it to heal from Ab separation (Diastasis Recti) during her pregnancy. After a few youtube videos, She stepped into her 1st yoga class at Africa Yoga Project. It was an amazing and humbling experience to be surrounded by an accepting and supportive community. Soon after, She began working with Africa Yoga Project as the Academy Manager.
It is her goal to share yoga as she has experienced it; as a healing, unifying and strengthening practice that creates transformation in and beyond the physical practice. She blogs on lessons on and off the mat. You can find her enjoying the tart seasonal freshness of raw mango.
Styles of Yoga we offer…
Baptiste Power Yoga
The practices and techniques of Baptiste Yoga are,
Physical practice as an access to vitality, power and freedom
Meditation as an access getting present and awakening
Inquiry as an access to discovery and new possibility
Baptiste yoga is the quintessential full body workout. From the cardiovascular, nervous system, glandular and circulatory systems all benefit from practicing Baptiste Power Yoga.
YOD
Your Own Determination/
YOD is a HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) that combines Baptiste Yoga with more contemporary functional movement.
This is a great practice for those looking to have a different experience from a Yoga class with a greater focus on isolation workouts.
The YOD community has a specific workout for each day, which is great because it builds a community doing the same movements worldwide.

What People Are Saying
When I started yoga with Julie, I was really skeptical but over the weeks I grew to embrace the classes and go deeper into the practice. I love the 1:1 classes because they helped me to become more confident so confident that earlier this year I attended a yoga festival. Thank you, Julie.
I’m sooo impacted by Julie’s positive leadership. She is a master of the hard and the soft
Firstly. I just LOVE the classes. Love love love
I love your style. Your descriptions and your class design. I love the variety. Usually, I am a TOUGH customer with new instructors but I have enjoyed every minute
Julie has such an amazing voice. The practice was a meditation for me. Keep at it
I needed that class, I learned so much and I appreciate that you gave it your all.
I got the connection of the practices and I feel confident to teach again.

At KoaMedia, we know that every company is doing the best they can to reach their clients. This happens through four basic channels: Video, photography, graphics, and the web. Billboards are found at every junction and crossroad. On these billboards are huge high quality photographs and graphics. In addition, companies have woken up to the fact that their clients have migrated to cyberspace. This means that they have to come up with graphics, videos, and high quality photographs to woo them. As if that is not enough, companies have taken over TV as their monopolized avenue for commercials. The business of photography, video, graphics design, and web development, therefore, is lucrative and hugely promising venture. But the business also demands smart heads, experienced hands, a good financial backing, an excellent expert business support, and guidance. That is why KoaMedia is in the business of Photography, Video Production, Graphics design, and Web Development. After only a short stint in this business, we have captured the hearts of international organizations such as CAFOD UK and Concern International, to whom we have delivered immaculate works.
