about nina

passionate

Nina is passionate about yoga as a vehicle for living with courage and equanimity. Describing her yoga mat as a magic carpet, Nina experienced a transformative ride through physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges. She credits her beloved teaches Sharron Gannon & David Life and her yoga practice with providing her the tools to consciously navigate life’s obstacles.

unique

Having practiced for fifteen years, Nina’s unique style is a synthesis of her extensive dance training and is firmly established in the the Jivamukti School. She has studied multiple traditions including Ashtanga, Iyengar, Baptiste, and Restorative.  Incorporating creative and flowing Vinyasa sequences, uplifting music, healing breathing techniques, and ancient spiritual themes relevant to modern life, Nina welcomes students of all levels, ages, and traditions. Yoga is less about what you do and more about how you do it.
