OUR TEAM

Nico Hurley

E-RYT 500 +

Nico Hurley first came to yoga for the movement, but stayed for the way the practice deepened her relationship with herself, others, and the world around her. A lifelong mover with a background in dance, she brings curiosity, creativity, and a deep respect for the body into her teaching. Her approach centers intentional, functional movement that invites students to slow down, feel more, and develop a more embodied relationship with their practice. As a teacher and educator, Nico is especially passionate about creative and purposeful sequencing, yoga philosophy, and exploring how the practice can extend beyond the mat and into the way we live and connect.

E-RYT 500+

Kate Moon

Kate Moon fell for yoga in a single class—the movement, the breath, and the feeling of getting completely lost only to find herself somewhere within it. A 500+ E-RYT with thousands of teaching hours worldwide, her style has evolved from her Baptiste roots into creative, functional, and often dance-like sequencing that feels equal parts strong and expressive. An award-winning teacher, educator, and founder of Flow State Wellness and RISE Retreats, Kate has led more than 20 retreats around the world and created accredited teacher trainings and continuing education programs. Her work is rooted in sthira sukha—strength and ease—creating inclusive spaces that encourage people toward their edges while giving them somewhere soft to land.
