About The Studio
A Quiet Space for Movement and Connection
Snake Twist Pilates is a private Pilates studio housed in a beautifully restored barn on a peaceful farm with sweeping views of the Front Range. It offers a serene and grounding space to move, breathe, and reconnect.
Each session is thoughtfully tailored to your body, goals, experience, and learning style guiding you toward greater strength, balance, and awareness.
Conveniently located between Boulder, Longmont, Lafayette, Niwot, and Erie, the studio is easily accessible yet feels worlds away.
Whether you’re new to Pilates or returning to your practice, we invite you to slow down, center yourself, and reset through mindful movement.

Guided by experience, curiosity, and compassion, Julia brings over a decade of experience and a deep love of movement back home to Boulder, Colorado.
Snake Twist Pilates was founded by Julia, a Boulder native with a lifelong passion for movement and teaching. After earning her B.A. in Kinesiology in Los Angeles, she completed two classical Pilates certifications; one under a student of Romana Kryzanowska and the other under a student of Jay Grimes. While in LA, Julia worked alongside an experienced chiropractor and assisted a respected physical therapist, deepening her understanding of movement, rehabilitation, and the body’s natural mechanics. With over a decade of experience, a background in competitive gymnastics, and ongoing martial arts training, she brings a thoughtful, hands-on approach to every session.
Now back home on the Front Range, Julia has created a welcoming space for her community to move, reconnect, and feel at home in their bodies. Outside the studio, she’s a proud mom to a six-year-old son and a spirited young dog.
"Her sessions are personalized and thoughtful, she knows exactly how to challenge you in a way that feels comfortable and builds confidence."
