About
Niv’s yoga journey began as a child practicing beside his parent, but it wasn’t until years later, during long weekends at Kripalu, that yoga revealed itself as a calling.
After a global walkabout that spanned the Himalayas to the Sahara, Niv returned home with a deepened sense of connection to the human spirit. His creative path led him through design school, a successful career in corporate and retail design, and ultimately, back to yoga as a way of living and teaching.Now based in New Jersey, Niv brings over fifteen years of dedicated practice into the classroom. He specializes in Gentle Yoga, Chair Yoga, and Ashtanga-inspired sequences, with a particular focus on healthy aging and supporting older adults. He currently leads the ARORA Yoga program at Life Time Fitness in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey, and regularly offers beginner series and special events.Niv’s teaching is student-centric, supportive, and complete. He never underestimates his students’ potential, always offering accessible entry points while integrating just enough challenge to foster growth and self-discovery. With keen observation and responsive feedback, he personalizes the practice to meet students where they are physically, emotionally, and energetically.For Niv, yoga is more than movement. It is a lifelong tool for resilience, reflection, and reconnection. His classes invite students to build strength and softness in equal measure, and to rediscover the quiet, steady wisdom that lives within.
