Nicole graduated from Heartwood 200 hr Yoga Teacher Training in 2015 with the intention of learning how to better run a small yoga studio in her day spa North River Body Therapies. A Licensed Massage Therapist since 1999, and a Certified Business and Life Coach since 2007, she became fascinated at looking yoga through the eyes of a massage therapist and how the heart of yoga and coaching are so similar.
Nicole's style of teaching is a blend of alignment and exploration, encouraging her students to find the place in their body where the pose feels good. She is very verbal with pose demonstrations, with a primary focus on getting you in and out of the pose. Nicole's class themes tend to have a thought provoking component based on real life examples, and she loves to honor the unique story of your body and what it has experienced up until now.

Grace was introduced to yoga about eight years ago. Having tried an at home video or two a few years before that, her first in studio class really took hold of her. It was the first time she felt her mind calm. After that yoga became a regular in her life. Eventually she felt drawn to gain a deeper understanding of the practice & wanted to share yoga with others. Three years ago she made her way Costa Rica to gain her 200hr teaching certification through Passion Yoga School. More than gaining a certification, it brought this heart opening awareness she had never experienced. Grace’s classes focus on the breath, mind & body awareness, as well as self love & acceptance.
If you show up and breathe, you can do yoga.

I love how there is such a large body of knowledge and I will be a student for the rest of my life because the more I learn about Yoga the more I want to learn.

Jenny is a certified yoga instructor with 300 hours of training from Aura Wellness Center and an additional 200 hours from Yoga Bradenton, and is has completed her registration as an E-RYT 200 and YACEP through Yoga Alliance,
and continues her journey of learning studying for her RYT 500 Status.
Yoga began several years ago for Jenny as just a physical practice to relieve physical pain stemming from years of distance running and high intensity, high impact workouts. However, after practicing for only a few months, she began to notice the mental and spiritual benefits of yoga as well and began to incorporate a more well-rounded practice. Desiring to share the life-changing benefits of yoga with others, Jenny became an instructor; she enjoys teaching Hatha Yoga, Flow, and Power Yoga as well as gentle and beginner yoga.
Jenny has a desire to help those interested in yoga but scared to come to the mat for any number of reasons, She truly believes there is a place for everyone within yoga and aims to create an inclusive, non judgmental, and safe space for all students of all levels of practice, while also having a little fun while on the mat.
Karissa teaches vinyasa flow emphasizing the importance of the breath leading movement and weaves creative themes into her yoga practice. She often incorporates yoga blocks into the practice to ensure proper form and alignment.
Yoga is not just asanas (physical movement); it is a lifestyle- one to grow old with, while staying young at heart. As life changes, yoga will be there. The practice might change, but yoga will continue to expand the mind and the heart!
Yoga became a part of Karissa’s life at a very young age, and to share the gift of yoga as an instructor had been on her list of goals since middle school! In addition to an early start to yoga, she had an even earlier start with martial arts, at six years old. Achieving a second-degree black belt in Taekwondo was another great influence in her life. Martial arts and yoga share physical and spiritual elements including self-discipline, respect, peace, and autonomy.
