For over two decades, Nicole has been a somatic practitioner and provider. Her studies have taken several twists & turns from its origins in Spain to the US east & west coasts where she has crossed paths with many gifted teachers including Tara Judelle, Ellen Heed, Michael Watson, David Vendetti, Noah Maze, Shiva Rae, Rusty Wells, John Friend, Janet Stone and Desiree Rumbaugh and more.
“You have to decide that you want it. You can’t wish or hope your way to reach your goals; you actually have to do the work.”
Nicole is the founder of ThirdEye Yoga, 100eight.com and part of Girls on Fire. Her background includes multiple Yoga Trainings, Reiki Master Certification, Medicinal QiGong Certification, Thai Bodywork Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Craniosacral Therapy, NASM (National Association of Sports Medicine), Sound Therapy, song writing and performing, a neverending existential crisis, humor and an ongoing svadhyaya practice.
“It starts with being conscious in all aspects of your life and fully embodying yourself. It doesn’t have to take up your whole life, but you need to commit.”
As an entrepreneur, coach and musician, Nicole invites us to think of somatic yoga therapy differently. The mantra of her teachings is to support and encourage people to embrace their unique nature both in body and in life path. It is through this practice that we can connect with a harmonious expression of stability and flexibility, freedom and form, alignment and art.
“I want to encourage people to discover themselves. More than inform, instruct or inspire, I want this experience to be put into action as a non-negotiable part of your lifestyle .. that to me is success. Perhaps at first it’s a new physical sensation, like a muscle getting stronger or improved range of motion.. but eventually its about discovering a much deeper dimension, like the innate ability to thrive instead of just survive .. and the awareness of how our biology doesn’t limit us but rather encourages us to become more than we know.”
Infusing a blend of somatic therapy, physiology, sound, breath and playfulness, Nicole combines movement and practical approaches designed to guide us through uncharted territory with heart, humor and a healing touch.
