Meet your teacher
Hi, I’m Nick.
I am a lover of plants and nature, a traveller, yoga student & teacher.
My yoga journey began in 2019 when I moved from Australia to Edinburgh. Living just around the corner from a welcoming studio, I quickly found comfort, community, and connection through regular practice.
In 2022, my love for yoga deepened, and I completed my 200-hour Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training with Rebecca Sirman. Since then, I’ve continued to learn and grow—training in Yin and Chair Yoga with Allison Harrison, as well as Trauma-Informed Yoga with Jeanine Talento and Brooke Alexander.
I approach yoga with curiosity and a beginner’s mind, always discovering something new within the practice. My intention as a teacher is to create a mindful, nurturing space where students feel safe to slow down, explore, and reconnect with a sense of calm and confidence within themselves.
