YOGA

Nicky Hadjithoma is the Lead Yin Yoga Teacher Trainer at PURE Yoga, a Yinspiration Trainer and the long-term Senior Assistant to Yinspiration Founder Jo Phee. Nicky discovered yoga in 2007 during an important crossroads in her life. Having been a bit of a wild child, she began seeking a new way of life. Over time, her practice has given her the inner strength and resilience to deal with the complexities of life, supported her journey of recovery from addiction and helped to relieve her long-suffering issues with anxiety and depression. As such, Nicky believes yoga to be the ultimate healing practice and tool for personal transformation. Informed by her studies of Western anatomy, Eastern philosophy and profound interest in psycho-spiritual development, Nicky’s practice and teaching focus on exploring the path towards physical, mental and emotional well-being. Her classes are a blend of functional yoga principles, Chinese meridian theory and Mindfulness Meditation. She guides students to understand their unique physicality, connect to the more subtle energetic qualities of the practice and explore the depths of their inner landscape. Her goal is for students to cultivate the self-awareness required to help them along their own healing journeys. Nicky has had the privilege of studying with many of the world’s most senior yin yoga teachers, including Paul Grilley, Sarah Powers, Bernie Clark, Joe Barnett and Josh Summers, to date. Her deepest gratitude, however, remains to her primary teacher and mentor Jo Phee for her ongoing influence, support and encouragement. Having personally apprenticed under the yin yoga pioneer for many years, Nicky is Jo’s longest-serving senior teaching assistant and is privileged to ongoingly assist her mentor on various teacher trainings around the world. Nicky is fully endorsed to teach the Yinspiration curriculum, based on the Paul Grilley method. Having taught thousands of public classes to a diverse mix of students, Nicky’s teaching experience comes from years of turning theory into practice. She currently lives in Hong Kong, where she teaches full-time, whilst travelling internationally to offer workshops and teacher trainings in various modalities of yin yoga and functional anatomy.
