nicole.carissa: Fort Wayne , Indiana, United States; With a life-long interest in the mind-body-spirit connection, Nicole followed her passion for teaching self awareness by following her heart into a 200 hr teacher training at Pranayoga in Fort Wayne, Indiana. From elemental yoga to the expanding fields of metaphysics and astrology, Nicole has developed a breadth of experience, resulting in a Yogastrology-Inspired teaching style with pioneer Diane Booth Gilliam. Nicole reveals the subtle, esoteric concepts of yoga through a combination of alignment-based asana from sacred geometry, meditation, visualization and pranayama. Tailored to the individual, her classes often include elements of meditative movement, sun and moon attunement, intention setting and gentle yet strong yoga. Nicole deconstructs poses down to their elemental and restorative design with influences from tantra and Tibetan traditions from her time as a teacher at a Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center. Nicole is trained in Shambala Meditation, teaches Hatha, Vinyasa, and Restorative Yoga with a RYT 200 hr from Pranayoga, and is currently practicing Yogastrology under the guidance of Diane Booth Gilliam, established astrologer and founder of Yogastrology.
