About Nickie Hanley

Nickie began her journey of Yoga in 1995 using the physical practice as a tool to remain supple for her professional dancing career. She soon found herself searching for more. By 2005 she had already realized meditation was also necessary for her own personal development & peace of mind. Her regular meditation practice & deeper understanding for the connection to the physical practice led to doing 500h level teacher training, where she studied asana, Pranayama and meditation further. Since being qualified as a yoga teacher, Nickie has created her own unique style of Vinyasa flow. Due to her dance background & long time connection to music she has developed an individual style that is smooth, strength building, continuously flowing that has a spiritual awareness. Nickie has a deep understanding that yoga is a journey that is forever developing and requires continuous study. She is always looking for new & exciting ways to expand her repertoire of work. Nickie has dedicated her own practice & teachings to helping others find the blessings of Yoga, whether it is through asana or meditation, so that they can find peace and joy off the mat. In 2013 Nickie created Disco Yoga to incorporate her previous life as a dance, her love of music & yoga. It is a yoga class crossed with a dance party including a live Dj, ambient lighting & just a whole lot of FUN! (www.discoyoga.com.au)
