It is born from Nicole’s extensive training, knowledge and experience in yoga therapy, neurodevelopmental therapies, body psychotherapy and energetic healing therapy. She put all of that into Yotism’s flagship Neurodevelopmental Yoga Therapy (NYT)

Nicole has a lifetime passionate connection for therapeutically meeting those with diverse needs. At the age of 16 she started volunteering for Mencap offering respite for families of children with profound Autism. From that moment on she has never strayed from supporting the SEN community. At 20 she trained as a yoga teacher, Reiki practitioner and Holistic Therapist and since then has grown and developed with the world of yoga as we know it now along with the opening of awareness, diagnosis and science backed information for Autism, ADHD and SEN in all its diversity.
At the point of training she immediately started teaching in mental health outpatient centres and residential adolescent mental health units. “To me it was a no brainer that yoga would be so powerfully healing to those with diverse needs or trauma and should be made as accessible as possible” she says.
After many extensive years of training with the few other great founders of adapted yoga Sonia Sumar and Jo Manuel and hundreds of hours of training in neurodevelopmental therapies. Along with a wide experience of working in schools, remedial education settings and designing and applying therapeutic listening programs with the organisation Sensory Activation Solutions she was ready for Yotism to be born.
My most recent 5 year training has been in Biodynamic Body Psychotherapy this has opened up a new and vibrant layer to the Yotism NDYT practice, of which I am so excited to share with you.
My biggest teacher to date though are my children now adults yet they still continue to provide me with the ongoing wisdom that I use for supporting and bringing healing awareness to others.
