Meet Nadja Villegas

 

Welcome to my journey

Helping you live life to the fullest

 

Nadja is a San Francisco Bay Area, Silicon Valley Wellness and Holistic Coach and TCM and Acupuncture Masters student.

She began her journey as a yoga student and soon discovered her calling. After progressing to an advanced level, she trained to become a yoga instructor to help others.

Nadja found her way to Yin Yoga as that was the best way to transform students both physically and mentally.

Wellness

Sometimes yoga isn’t enough. Through Acupressure, Nadja helps clients unblock and restore balance and energy flow through the body’s meridians.

Similarly, she found Dynamic Cupping to be the best way to release fascia and increase range of motion so students can get the most out of Yin Yoga.

Wellness Coaching lets Nadja helps students create new patterns and become better versions of themselves.

Here are a few things people say about Nadja.
If you are an existing student, feel free to submit your review.

Nadja is a once-in-a-lifetime yoga teacher to me. I have been practicing since 2008, sometimes consistently and sometimes on and off and I always felt as if I am going through the motions rather than syncing with the practice. After the first lesson with Nadja, suddenly all those poses I have been doing for years

I love Nadja’s Yin Yoga classes – in person and now live online! Nadja does a great job of checking in and tailoring the class based on our needs. I appreciate the way she weaves in breathing and meditative components.

I seriously look forward to every single session with Nadja. She has become such an important part of my life since I began as a private client of hers.

I have been attending Nadja’s classes for about a year now, and I love them. I started yoga again (after many years of not practicing) due to some longstanding aches and pains I just couldn’t get to go away, and I feel so much better when I’m able to make it to her classes. She

Nadja is warm and welcoming. Her classes can be challenging, but she teaches students to practice yoga with integrity-to listen carefully to their own body and to respect where they are and what they need without judgement. Her knowledge and understanding of yoga postures and philosophy is extensive. She incorporates the underlying concepts of yoga

Kerri R.
I would highly recommend any yoga class taught by Nadja. She creates a welcoming environment for all students and encourages an educational dialog when teaching new poses. Nadja also excels at creating a balanced class that challenges a student’s balance, strength, and stretching ability. If you’re lucky enough to attend more than one of Nadja’s

Nadja is such an inspiring yoga instructor! Her classes are playful, challenging, and rejuvenating. I love her lighthearted personality, and the caring attention she gives to each student. I’ve attended Vinyasa, Restorative, and Yin yoga classes with Nadja and after each class I leave feeling amazing! Thank you Nadja for sharing your knowledge, kindness and

We loved Nadja. She was able to tailor classes to our needs (my husband and I), and really got us going on a regular self-practice 2 times a week.
