The Yogiak is a space created by Amy Nelson. A human, a yoga practitioner, a humble teacher, a mother, a lover of movement and nature, a seeker of truth, and a traveler into and through the uncomfortable path to divine love. Welcome. Yoga begins now.
Amy completed her initial 200-hour yoga teacher training in 2015, with a focus on vinyasa flow, at Breathing Room Yoga and Movement Studio in South Portland, ME. She went on to complete another 200-hour and her advanced 500-hour training in 2019, with Be Shakti and Lotsie Cash at Tula Movement Arts in Bend, OR. In addition, she has completed a Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training with Kirsten Warner at Devi Yoga for Women, Yin Yoga teacher training at Breathing Room with Lily Dougher, and is trained in self-massage and fascial release with The Roll Model Method. Amy has experience in vinyasa, hot vinyasa, yin, restorative, gentle, beginner, prenatal, and yoga nidra. She is also a level two Reiki practitioner. With roots in New England, Amy has called many places home, currently residing in Bend, OR with her husband and four kids. She loves connecting with other soul seekers, lovers of life, adventurers, momma-preneurs, and any human who wants to feel things and get uncomfortable in the name of divine love.
