Nikki began her yoga practice in 1993 while studying at U.C. Santa Barbara. She immediately fell in love with the practice and after graduating went to Mysore, India where she studied Ashtanga under Pattabhi Jois for three months. After several years of dedicated practice, she completed Erich Schiffmann and Sarah Powers' teacher training programs. Her continued interest in all aspects of the yoga practice has led her to study with different teachers from different disciplines, including Anusara Yoga with John Friend, and many workshops and trainings with Iyengar, Ashtanga, and Viniyoga teachers. Her real passion for the practice comes from a synthesis of all of these disciplines.
Her vinyasa (flowing) style of yoga emphasizes movement guided by breath, postures developed through alignment, and concentration through awareness. Every class is different, providing a challenging physical experience, while always maintaining an awareness of the core body and the heart center. By coming into the immediacy of the body and the energy flowing within, students are able to meet their edge both on and off the mat, which is the real heart of personal transformation.
