Nicki Simonich
Nicki is a 200 hr RYT and a certified Trauma Informed Yoga Therapy teacher (TIYT), trained to work with students diagnosed with Anxiety, PTSD, Depression and Chronic Pain.

Nicki lived a stressful life running a video production company, when the stress finally got the best of her, leading to an auto-immune response that disrupted her energy, mood and digestive system. The stress and health overload allowed her to fully turn her attention over to her yoga practice, which had been flowing in and out of her life. 

She credits her yoga practice to the deep connection she now has with Self and Spirit, and for allowing her to enjoy life in a way that at one time I was impossible. 

She is passionate about sharing yoga as a therapeutic tool for creating well-being in life, and considers herself more of a coach or a guide, believing we all have exactly what we need within ourselves to find our way. Sometimes we just need a little support to access our own way home.

Sandra Cardona
Sandra specializes in teaching a power vinyasa flow. Her passion for yoga started in 2003 when she attended yoga classes to relieve a running injury. Once she experienced the benefits of yoga, she dedicated herself to her practice.

She began sharing yoga with her friends and co-workers, even bringing yoga teachers to her workplace. Through yoga, she formed new bonds with co-workers, and discovered that so many people wanted to embrace wellness in their lives, but felt shy or intimidated to start a yoga practice without a support system. She decided she would be that support system, and pursued her 200hr certification at CorePower Yoga in Austin, TX. 

Sandra especially enjoys teaching beginners with an emphasis on building strength. Her goal is to inspire and encourage students to establish their own dedicated practice, teaching them to build strong and healthy bodies, so they too can enjoy the many unexpected benefits that come with regular yoga practice.
