Working with Oprah on her 202 Vision Tour

A SoCal girl at heart, Nikki loves waking up with the sun, chasing waves, and adventuring in nature. She’s also just as content sipping tea and reading a book in bed. After receiving her BFA in Dance and Minor in Communications from Cal State Long Beach she spent over a decade in Los Angeles working as a professional dancer. Making a career out of her passion was fun and exhilarating, but the nature of the industry left her feeling inadequate and in search of validation and acceptance from someone or something. She never felt like enough. The only gig she truly needed to book was the job of unconditionally loving herself. SPOILER ALERT: she discovered that she’s wildly more than enough (and so are you). While dancing, Nikki also became a makeup artist and certified group fitness instructor.

From barre, to HIIT, she was painting faces and toning abs all across La La Land and was one of the best in the biz, but with all of her focus on the external, her mind could barely do a bicep curl. She’s always been an advocate for change and you best believe she made one! Nikki started meditating at a local studio and shortly after became a Reiki Practitioner, in turn opening the door to her spiritual journey.

Her heart called for more. She embarked on a solo adventure to Bali to study Yoga— the type of yoga that requires much more sitting than chattaranga-ing. This choice of taking her first 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training was absolutely pinnacle to her life-changing transformation. In the stillness, she met herself.

Wanting more, Nikki uprooted her entire life and moved to Bali. After diving deep into practice and learning what it meant to be a Yogini, her teacher offered her a job teaching at the studio where she trained, she was honored! Nikki taught while simultaneously soaking up every nugget of knowledge she could, studying just as mush as surfing!

Eventually she felt pulled back to the states to share her experiences with her community and the entire globe!

Nikki has planted roots in North County San Diego where she currently teaches in person at Gold Meditation Center.

She looks forward to holding space for you to heal and grow so your magic can ripple into every part of your life. Her gift for bringing out the best in others is extraordinary and if you have worked with her this nurturance has been felt. Whether it’s through 1:1 coaching, trainings, retreats or online class she know’s it’s never too late to learn how to love yourself first!
