“Nicky is an absolutely fantastic, dedicated and inspirational yoga teacher. Her expertise and passion to teach and support her students are exceptional. It was such an amazing experience to join her 100-Hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training. I learnt so much about yin yoga, anatomy and how to skilfully adapt yoga poses to work for everyone. All of Nicky‘s teachings have a significant impact on my yoga practice and are so valuable in enabling me to develop as a yoga teacher. I highly recommend to practice and study with Nicky.”

“It has been absolutely mind blowing teacher training. I didn’t only deeply studied  anatomy but also learned how different bodies we have  and how important it is to see it, acknowledge so that we can  make every posture work for everyone the best possible way. Looking forward to keep studying with Yintelligence school”

“I’m so happy that I waited this long to do my yin yoga teacher training. I couldn’t have asked for a better teacher! Nicky’s approach to teaching is rooted in excellent knowledge of anatomy. She teaches with function in mind making yoga accessible and inclusive. Her classes are a great balance between theory and practice.  I can’t wait to learn more from her.”

“I attended Nicky’s 100-hour Yin Yoga TT with a focus on functional anatomy and Chinese medicine theory in 2019.  I was torn between two different options for yin teacher trainings, so I attended a few of Nicky’s classes before signing up.  Each time when I left her Yin class, I left more energized and more calm than ever, and I was so curious about what made her classes stand out so far above the rest that it convinced me to sign up for her Yin training.

During the course of the six weeks, Nicky poured her heart and soul into the training and patiently deconstructed for us what makes for a gold standard yin teacher and yin class.  We covered the different elements of designing a yin class, from setting energy curves to selection of themes and giving proper instructions for pose variations.  Most importantly, Nicky demonstrated to us the importance of respecting skeletal variation in each person and not applying a universal standard to all bodies.

While I am Chinese by heritage, I learned many new facets and sides of Chinese medicine and meridian theory that I didn’t know before and it was so refreshing to gain new insights from a different point of view.

Lastly, it is rare for teachers to share so openly parts of their heart and story – Nicky is one of those precious few whose insights have crystallized through diving through the deepest oceans and emerging with the pearls of wisdom from its depths.  She will inspire you to bring more to your classes than the poses themselves, and to unravel the layers covering your own soul to offer your authentic self to your students.

I would recommend Nicky’s training without hesitation.”

“Loved everything about the functional approach to understanding Yin and then the bigger picture of linking it with the meridians, the muscles and the bones. The methodology of the teaching was impeccable and how the information and live data (for example: the postures) were recorded for future reference made repeated access to the subject matter non-cumbersome. I felt I had reached the right place with the right teacher. Thank you Nicky!”
