About Nicole

During my studies I enjoyed taking part in Hatha Yoga courses, because right from the start I was fascinated and inspired by the following: No matter how I was feeling – whether stressed out by work, nervous about exams or just inwardly restless and tense – after practising Hatha-Yoga for a while, I immediately felt vital and relaxed, in harmony with myself. With Yoga I could find inner peace. From this came the desire to share my experience with others. That is why I completed a yoga teacher training course 25 years ago and have been offering Hatha Yoga classes for over 20 years.
