Nikki DeJulia-Dranias

Nikki DeJulia-Dranias, Master Yoga Teacher, Yoga Therapist. After recovering from a debilitating neuro-muscular disorder in her teen years, Nikki developed a profound appreciation for the gift of movement.  By way of dance, she found yoga and was immediately drawn to how different this movement made her feel—both in body and feeling state.  Yoga’s physical alignment and sequencing had her smitten, but the lasting appeal was its ability to help her through life’s various challenges, especially motherhood.
Since her first 200-hour yoga certification back in 2001, she’s attended hundreds of classes and has yet to leave a class that hasn’t taught her something.  She’s taught off and on since 2001 and her style is most heavily influenced by Desiree Rumbaugh, Rod Stryker and more recently thanks to her invaluable 300-hour Healing Emphasis Yoga Teacher training with Jeff and Donna Martens.
