Nicole received her RYT-200 Hour certification from the YogaWorks Teacher Training program in January 2015 where she was able to study under renowned instructor Chrissy Carter. Here Nicole developed her teaching style of an “alignment-based flow,” vowing to truly teach yoga asanas through proper posture and positioning. She teaches yoga in the hopes of instilling a deeper understanding of mind-body awareness in her students.

She started practicing yoga after attending various studios around NYC. She became inspired to teach yoga due to her forever evolving knowledge in learning to be more open and accepting, both mentally and physically. 

Now, Nicole resides in sunny Manhattan Beach, CA, where in her free time, you can find Nicole walking on ‘The Strand’ with her dog, Peach, biking, hiking, and beaching.

In the future, she would like to go on to receive her RYT-500-hour training, while her long-term goals involve discovering new yogic principles and traveling the world.

Nicole Abou-Rjeili received her Bachelor of Arts from NYU and her MBA from Baruch Zicklin School of Business.
