Sangha Reflections:
"Nikita's 10-week course, much like her book, is very accessible, engaging and insightful. Each class felt as though she was "opening a door" to a new element or understanding of the roots of yogic tradition in a thought-provoking way, especially for an individual from the US or Western world. Her classes provided a roadmap for me to better understand yogic roots and how to meaningfully incorporate and center tradition into today's studios."
"Once I bought the book I realised Nikita also had a 10 week Roots of Yoga course so I thought this would be a great way to delve back into the foundations of teaching yoga to refresh my memory. I had taken a break from teaching and when I returned back I wanted to read books that inspired me to teach in a way that was authentic and true to myself and the ancient lessons of yoga.
Nikita's course and book allowed me to reconnect with the history of yoga and the depths of yoga beyond the yoga mat. Nikita's knowledge, understanding and wisdom on the subject is commendable and her passion to showcase yoga in its true form is inspiring. The ten week course allowed me to unravel some of the pain and trauma I have experienced within the yoga space because of the colour of my skin. The space was a safe space to express myself and connect with others who had experienced and felt the same too.."
