Nicole Payseur

Once upon a time, a yogini took her yoga off the mat and into the court room. As a lawyer, Nicole ameliorated harsh confrontations using yogic equanimity and discipline.  She has since left the court room to teach yoga full time. Because transforming from lawyer to yoga teacher has been so personally fulfilling, Nicole encourages her students to pursue their passions whatever they may be.

Nicole has studied many styles from Iyengar to Ashtanga to Anusara. She holds a 500-hour certification from Yoga Works.  Over the past 18 years of practice/research and nine years of teaching, she has discovered that laughter makes the body limber and humor makes the soul resilient. Students learn compassion, contentment and courage under her guidance. Their yoga blossoms. They learn to smile which is the most important pose of all.
