you are at the heart of everything we do
What began as a vision for shared healing has grown into a thriving community where yoga, sound healing, mindfulness, and holistic practices come together under one welcoming roof.
The Nest is built on collaboration. Our teachers bring diverse expertise—from yoga and meditation to Qigong, embodiment work, strength and mobility, and sound therapy—yet we share one heart-centered mission: to support your well-being, your growth, and your authentic path.
We believe that healing happens in community. Every body deserves accessible, adaptive practices. And we believe that when we show up wholeheartedly, we create space for others to do the same.
What sets The Nest apart is our integrated approach to wellness. Our offerings weave together movement, breath, sound, inquiry, and meaningful human connection. Students don’t just attend classes—they experience an environment designed to nurture inner spaciousness, embodiment, and personal evolution.
This website invites you into the world we’re creating: a place to practice, to rest, to learn, to reconnect with your deeper Self, and to find a community that feels like home. Welcome to The Nest Collaborative—where you are supported, seen, and encouraged to rise in your own time.
