About Nick:

A writer in mind, a yogi at heart, and a healer at soul, Nick has been travelling the world as a digital nomad, writing and sharing his yoga practice since January 2022.

Nick began his spiritual odyssey in 2015 in Vancouver, Canada when he began practicing Zazen meditation with local Chan/Zen teacher, Rob Inglis, himself a student of Roshi Philip Kapleau. In 2017, after completing his B.A. (Communications) at SFU, he decided to take a deep dive into the study of yoga, completing his YTT-200hr at Karma Teachers under Steve Fazzari, Lucy St. John, and Risto Duggan, and eventually finishing his advanced 500-hr YTT in 2022. In 2023, he earned his Reiki Level 2 cetificate (in the Usui lineage) in Bali under Melani Koch.

Nick has taught yoga classes in studios and retreats around Vancouver and abroad, primarily focusing on deeper, more meditative styles such as yin, hatha, and yoga nidra.

He has also facilitated other types of sessions outside of formal tradition, including ecstatic dance, and dyads (conscious communication).

While his yoga practice is always adaptive, evolving, and shifting, Nick has found that the marriage between his yin teaching and Zazen discipline has yielded particularly powerful mental and spiritual fruits that extend far beyond the mat and cushion.
