Nicole Johnson

She graduated from the CorePower Yoga Minneapolis 200 hour program in 2008. After completion of her yoga program she moved to Las Vegas, N.V. to work alongside many great instructors. While teaching group classes, boot camps, workshops and private classes, she wanted to advance her knowledge in the industry so she attended the Ki-Atsu Institute and received her Pilates Certificate in 2010. Then went on to study with The Pilates Center in Vegas. She is also a Level 1 Reiki Master under Leela Ugargol, Minneapolis 2006. Nicole's love of yoga began after injuring herself while training for her second marathon in 2006. She began training at various studios across the country to find out what style of yoga fit into her life. She trained alongside Ki, in Las Vegas, for an advanced Ashtanga style yoga class where she completed another 300 hour training. Recently, she studied under Paige Williams to gain her 300 Hour YA Certification. She currently leads the 200 and 300 Hour Teacher Training course in Aberdeen, South Dakota. She is also a YACEP and focuses on alignment, injuries, post- injury care, and also loves offering private classes to really focus on what the student's needs are when they enter the studio. She also opened her own brick and mortar, Appoise, located in Aberdeen, SD, which will focus on rehabilitation clients and classes, assessments and Pilates for all levels. If you don't find Nicole on her mat, she will be enjoying the country roads on her bike or rock climbing - two of her passions. In light and love- Nicole
