about us.

Nicky Cormanni - YIN YOGA & SOUND HEALING. Nicky discovered yoga while living in China, initially drawn in by a friend. With each move — China, Hong Kong, Amsterdam, Italy, and Portugal — yoga became her way to reconnect with herself. She trained in Vinyasa and Yin before deepening her studies in somatics and embodied practices with the Authentic Flow Tribe (Satu Tuomela).

Influenced by Buddhism, she weaves its philosophy into her teachings. Her passion for sound led her to study Sound Healing with crystal bowls. Nicky’s classes empower students to turn inward, build confidence, and navigate both inner and outer worlds with strength, presence, and self-awareness. A yogi, a surfer, and a seeker, she sees yoga as a lifelong journey of self-care and connection. You can reach out to Nicky with a whatsapp message.
