Restorative Yoga Experts
Nicole Williams, a restorative yoga expert and certified yoga instructor, began studying Zazen Meditation in Japan in 1988. She went on to get a BA in dance/movement therapy at Evergreen State College in 1992. She developed a body based mindfulness program in nursing home, Alzheimer's Units and the elderly population in Seattle.
Nicole brings a playful and creative experience to her students. Her own yoga studies began at Evergreen State College in the early nineties and continue to this day.
Nicole has created a unique series of restorative yoga formulas which blend therapeutic postures and breath work to create a healing experience. She threads the knowledge cultivated from her personal practice into these unique flowing combinations. These formulas and the extensive use of props like sand bags, bolsters and blankets, are the hallmark of Sundog Yoga.
Nicole has studied with the senior teachers of yin yoga, Paul Grilley and Sarah Powers. Her restorative yoga training and structural formulas are inspired by body based mindfulness gurus. Her current inspirational teachers are Judith Lasater, Pema Chodron and Adyashanti.
Nicole's practice resides at the Yoga Loft where she offers weekly classes along with teacher trainings at local studios. She has been part time faculty in Health and Human Performance Department at Central Oregon Community College since 2010.
