“You have to decide that you want it. You can’t wish or hope your way to reach your goals; you actually have to do the work.”
From movement to manifestation, yoga offers a wholehearted awakening to life’s potential. More than two decades later Nicole is still amazed by yoga’s magic & inspiration. Her practice has taken several twists & turns from its origins in Spain to the US east & west coasts where she has crossed paths with many gifted teachers including Tara Judelle, David Vendetti, Noah Maze, Shiva Rae, Rusty Wells, John Friend, Janet Stone, Desiree Rumbaugh, anatomy experts Ellen Heed and Michael Watson.
Nicole is the founder of ThirdEye Yoga, 100eight.com and Overflow Yoga. Her training includes Anusara Teacher Training, Bhakti Vinyasa Flow Teacher Training, Reiki Master Certification, Thai Bodywork Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy, NASM (National Association of Sports Medicine) and an ongoing svadhyaya practice.
“It starts with being conscious in all aspects of your life and fully embodying yourself. It doesn’t have to take up your whole life, but you need to commit.” As an entrepreneur and influencer, behavioral designer and lifestyle coach, Nicole challenges you to think of yoga differently. The mantra of her teachings is to support and encourage people to embrace their unique nature both in body and in life path. It is through yoga that we can connect with a harmonious expression of stability and flexibility, freedom and form, alignment and art.
“I want to encourage people to discover themselves. More than inform, instruct or inspire, I want to see this experience put into action as a non-negotiable part of your lifestyle .. that to me is success. Perhaps at first it’s a new physical sensation, like a muscle getting stronger or improved range of motion.. but eventually its about discovering a much deeper dimension, like the innate ability to thrive instead of just survive .. and the awareness of how our biology doesn’t limit us but rather encourages us to become more than we know.”
Infusing a blend of aligment, movement and pranayama, Nicole combines dynamic poses and practical approaches designed to offer the challenge of moving in to uncharted territory with heart, humor and a healing touch.
