Niki Saccareccia
Joined Ompractice March 2018Niki took her first yoga class at 12 and has been a student of the practice ever since. Her philosophy is that yoga is as much about what happens on the mat as what your mentality is all day long - managing stress, choosing love over fear and overcoming excuses. She holds an advanced Psychology degree from the University of South Florida, and is registered as an E-500 and Y.A.C.E.P. with the internationally acclaimed Yoga Alliance. Yoga is for every body, and her style is down-to-earth. You’ll move, and you’ll learn a lot, too! Expect variations of postures, modifications, props, breath work and specific cues to advance your own practice, class by class.

I have been attending yoga classes with Niki, and they have truly been transformative. Her classes possess a healing power that surpasses any physical therapy I've experienced. Niki is entirely dedicated and incredibly knowledgeable, making each session engaging and informative. Her easygoing manner and sense of humor make the classes enjoyable and far from boring. I find myself learning a great deal while also sharing a few laughs. The positive results I've seen since joining her classes have motivated me to continue, and I always leave feeling satisfied and uplifted.

Niki is an amazing teacher very gentle, clear, calming, and delicate when giving instructions. I also appreciate have feedback or other option for poses during class, it really alleviates the unnecessary wondering of the mind on if your completing the pose to avoid injury.

I thought Niki was very welcoming to all. Niki was very attentive to the class with encouragement and just enough push to get one thru the difficult pose.

Niki is the best teacher I have ever worked with. She is highly skilled and knowledgeable. She also reinforces positive thinking patterns and habits. She explains movements clearly, helping you to recognise and correct bad habits. Niki is also very funny- making some great sound effects of your joints moving!

Niki is amazing at explaining what we need to do and why we need to do it in such a no-nonsense manner. I love that she consistently requests that people show up on time or early and that she is so personable.

Niki is brilliant at talking to your body and your mind. A gentle, focussed class that has reduced my pain and help me sleep better. [She] is very insightful and powerful. She speaks to my emotional and physical self.

Niki is a U.S.-based E-RYT 500 yoga educator and teacher trainer, international retreat leader, author and wellness consultant. She is the author of Roadmap to Mindful Living, and the developer of a research-backed curriculum for creating sustainable changes in wellbeing. Her teaching approach is based on the fact that both mental and movement-based habits can “make or break” our quality of life and by using yogic tools, we can sustainably change our mindset and ultimately our life by relating to stress and suffering in profound ways. She serves on the medical team of Goodpath.com and is a contributing teacher on YogaWakeUp. In her classes, students learn about their anatomy along with the mindset or belief that moves them from one action to the next. Her students learn to cultivate a deep sense of presence and technique whether they are utter beginners or yoga teachers, themselves. And while Niki is serious about her work, her classes are down-to-earth, full of humor and humility and always welcome students exactly as they are from any walk of life.
