Hello, my name is Nkki Platania and I am a San Francisco and California native. My journey into yoga practice started at age 13 and ever since, it has been a refuge of peace, strength, and motivation in my life, and a gift I like to share..

In 2010, I quit my job in corporate sales and moved to Mexico to work at a drug rehabilitation center to begin my journey in the healing arts. Three years later,  I traveled to India, the birthplace of yoga and received an 200 hour yoga intensive in Rishikesh. My travels in India were transformative- I deepened my immersion into the path of yoga and opened my mind to new ideas and ways of living..

My yoga teaching practice has taken me across the world. My asana classes focus on alignment, core strengthening, detailed posture adjustments, and control of the breath, mind, and body. I  specialize in handstands and like to sprinkle inversions into progressive Vinyasa Hatha style classes. I complement the asana practice with a guided meditation called Yoga Nidra, which helps integrate the wonderful benefits of the asanas.

In addition to my traditional yoga offerings, I am inspired to help people to realize and live their dreams to live in flow with the universe. I always come from a place of love and encouragement, and look forward to supporting you with any health goals physical, spiritual, mental, or universal. 

Another aspect of my life is my love for the oceans and environment and I have supported causes that help make this world a better place for all living and future living. A portion of all profits go to supporting causes that support a vision for a clean, healthy, loving, connected, happy, healthy world. Collaborations are always welcomed..
