Meet Nadja

 

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 Doctorate student specializing in women’s health.

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.

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.
