About Nicole
What role does yoga play in your life?
A very significant one. Beyond teaching, my personal practice is absolutely essential to me. Yoga helps me return to my strength again and again and supports me in navigating challenging situations — both in my personal and professional life.
What do you hope to share with your students through your classes?
I want my students to feel at home in their bodies — to cultivate refined body awareness as well as a strengthened mind. It’s about nurturing the connection between body, mind, and soul. These days we all face countless challenges, and it’s incredibly helpful to have a few tools at hand that support us in managing those moments.
How would you describe the core of your philosophy?
Creating a safe space for my students is deeply important to me. The focus of my classes lies in a well-aligned asana practice combined with conscious breathing. I draw strong inspiration from the philosophy of Katonah Yoga; I especially love the metaphor: “Your body is your house. Make your house your home.” My mentor Nevine Michaan always says: “It’s not about never falling down. The real art is getting up more quickly and continuing on.” And I believe a solid yoga practice can support exactly that.

Workshops & Specials
- 20 June: Self-Care Saturday

In this special class, we journey through all three levels of the body using the concept of the “Magic Squares.” After the Katonah Yoga practice, a guided meditation deepens the metaphor. Feel at home in your body and release stored tension and blockages.

Next Retreats
Thais de la Paz will guide you through three days of relaxing yoga sessions, combining yoga practices with meditation and breathing techniques to bring greater well-being and clarity. Each session is dedicated to one element - Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether. In this way, we draw upon the healing qualities of the elements and find inspiration for our yoga and meditation practice, cultivating balance in both body and mind.
Yoga can have a profound impact on many levels of our being. While stretches and asanas keep the body supple, pranayama and meditation help the mind find peace. Thais will guide you toward a deeper dimension of yourself, enriching your life experience in many ways. Enjoy a retreat that will leave you re-energized and full of new perspectives.

Are you looking for deceleration far from your everyday life? Do you want to delve deeper into your yoga practice? Do you want to gather yourself and find your inner center?
This retreat offers a clear focus on the essentials in the moment – silence, clarity, and grounding within yourself. We will detox and slow down through all facets of yogic teachings: physical, mental, and emotional.

10. - 13. September 2026
The Ride & Release Edition is a retreat for women who want to combine physical challenge on the road bike with mindful deceleration through yoga and wellness.
In the midst of the South Tyrolean vineyards, a special combination awaits you: guided road bike rides with the female cycling force and regenerative yoga. The retreat combines the best of two worlds: active road cycling stages through the breathtaking landscape and somatic yoga in the light-filled glass house of Villa Arnica.
In the mornings and evenings, we will jointly immerse ourselves in mindful yoga and meditation practices. Here, you will not only find recovery for strained muscles but also valuable time for yourself. The female cycling force will then accompany you with safe guidance, offer you room to learn, and convey a great sense of community, allowing you to experience road cycling anew.
The retreat is aimed at women who are looking for both challenge and deceleration - without sacrificing indulgence.
