Nichole GaVette
Nichole’s guiding principles are to inspire students to discover yoga beyond asana and to assist them in connecting with their inner universe. Her classes have an emphasis on body-breath synchronicity while incorporating alignment and strength principles. Pranayama, mantra, exploration of the subtle body, meditation and simple therapeutic exercises are integrated to create balance, grounding and openness.
Nichole studies multiple paths and styles including Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Iyengar, Bhakti, and Jnana yoga. Her education began in 2002 at Oregon State University with Sujita Sklenar. She received her teaching certification at Loka Yoga Institute in Whistler, BC. Presently, she continues her studies under the guidance of Tina Pashumati James and Betty Roi.
She joyfully shares her passion for the practice and ways in which yoga is a sanctuary, healing modality, spiritual journey, and way of life. Off the mat, Nichole enjoys artistic work as a Jewelry Maker and Metalsmith. Specializing in custom pieces, she offers one-of-a-kind + small batch collections.
