Nicole’s yin yoga journey began in 2015 when she began attending weekly classes in her neighborhood of Northeast Minneapolis. Always a fan of slowing down, she fell in love with the pace and purpose of yin. Nicole is grateful to have discovered yoga almost 20 years ago during her time at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities and has been on the path ever since. Nicole’s yin yoga training is with Michelle Pietrzak-Wegner, and she also completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training with Tanya Boigenzahn at Devanadi Yoga. Nicole is a Level II Usui Reiki practitioner and is interested in learning more about Ayurveda and yoga therapy. A few of Nicole’s other hats include teaching music and English, being a wife and auntie, and singing professionally. Her most favorite hobbies are reading, cooking, and travel. She’s delighted to return to teaching yoga after an extended break, and very much looks forward to meeting the lovely Jai Dee community.
