JULIA Tobler
Athlete, Speaker & Coach
Hi, my name is Julia and I am the founder of shadesinblue.
I am a freediver and ocean soul for life and I have achieved several National Records for Switzerland.
Through the athletic achievements I learned how focus, a certain relaxation and passion work together and lead to success. .
Apart from my passion for the sea, I love all kind of movement and mindfulness practices. Yoga and meditation are part of my routine for years as much as somatic experiencing, breathwork and everything else that has to do with exploring the interconnectedness of the body and the mind.
With a wish to combine embodied practices like Yoga and Meditation with the athletic sport of freediving, I create retreats with Yoga, Freediving and a breeze of adventure, giving you the optimal environment to develope as a freediver as well as on a personal level. My goal is to send people home with a bigger sense for balance in life, tools to relax and come back to our true self in our daily life. A sense of connectedness with ourselves and our surrounding.
I am open for collaborations of different types. I am happy to speak or discuss on your event and/or guide a breathing, meditation or yoga session for your team, class, group etc.
