About Nickie
Nickie Hanley began dancing at a young age and worked professionally until 2003. She went on to complete her yoga teacher training in 2010 with the Australia Yoga Academy (AYA). In 2013, she created Discoyoga, a vibrant fusion of strong, soulful Vinyasa flow and live DJ music.
By bringing together her background as a dancer with her love of yoga and music, Nickie designed Discoyoga to help students connect more deeply with their own joy. It is a joy they can carry from the mat into everyday life.
