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.

Inside Flow is a symbiosis of breath, movement and music. In this popular class format, you move fluently on beat to modern music and learn step by step a yoga choreography.
Inside Flow is derived from Vinyasa Flow Yoga, with the synchronization of breath and movement at its core. A constant flow, without beginning, without end. The individual asanas fade into the background, while transitions and flowing movements take center stage. Music becomes an essential part, giving heart and expression to the practice.
The result is a flow, meditation in movement, where the body releases happiness hormones and you experience a flow state on the mat that can be addictive. If you enjoy moving to music and already have some yoga experience, Inside Flow is just right for you!

The Subtle Motion Retreat is a short retreat that invites you to discover the power of gentle, conscious movement and targeted breathwork. In just two intensive days, you will experience how subtle impulses in body and breath can regulate your nervous system, foster presence and inner clarity, and give you a deep sense of self-connection.
This is not about classical yoga poses or performance, but about a therapeutically grounded practice tailored to your body and your needs. Every movement, every breath becomes an invitation to feel yourself more deeply, to find calm, and to gently bring your system back into balance.
