Nicole, Restorative Yoga Teacher
RYT-200

Meet Nicole

Nicole fell in love with yoga the very first time she stepped onto the mat. At the time, she didn’t know much about yoga, but she was immediately drawn to the sense of inner peace it provided. Over the past 20 years, she has returned to her practice again and again, always grateful for the grounding it brings.

With a desire to deepen her practice and understanding of yoga — including breathwork, asanas, and sequencing — Nicole completed her RYT-200 teacher training at Flourish Yoga in Indianapolis in 2021. She is currently pursuing her RYT-300, which she will complete at the end of summer 2025. She is also certified in Restorative Yoga.

Nicole’s teaching style reflects her favorite practices: Gentle, Restorative, Yin, and Slow Flow Vinyasa. Her classes are supportive, calming, and designed to help students connect deeply with themselves.

Outside the studio, Nicole is married with two adult children and a mini labradoodle. She enjoys traveling and reading a good book whenever she can.
