Meet Our Instructors
In Bri's class you will experience a unique playlist fueled by electronic, R&B, funky beats, and light acoustics. Bri completed her 200 hr YTT in Nosara Costa Rica in 2014. Since then, she's taught all sorts of classes wherever she goes, from Syracuse University to Bigtoe Yoga in SoHo, as well as many private lessons along the way. Bri will encourage you to drop your expectations at the door, and get on the mat with an open heart and mind. Together you will enjoy meditation, a powerful flow and relaxation.
Bri is a true extrovert and excited by all aspects of life. She has backpacked through Thailand, studied abroad in Australia, and taught English in Tanzania. This woman is a lover of genuine conversation and is always down to chat about your practice (or really anything!).
Dena grew up competing in gymnastics and cheerleading. Yoga started as a workout that was much kinder on her body, and her love of the practice grew deeper from there as a way to be present and mindful. She received her RYT200 in Siena Reap, Cambodia, which is fitting as she loves traveling all over the world to experience new cultures. She’s just moved to New York from Dublin, Ireland. Dena’s classes incorporate a sense of joy and enthusiasm along with creative and challenging flows and poses.
Nika Antuanette has performed with several dance, production, and theater companies including Gaspard & Dancers, Spirit Productions/Dublin Worldwide Entertainment, High Life Productions, Alison Cook Beaty Dance, and Gotham Dance Theater. She has been featured in music videos with artists Grace Vanderwaal, ATELLER, Financial Criminals, & Jash. In addition, Nika continues to choreograph works for stage, live events, and film. In 2018, she choreographed and performed in the short dance film, Savage Queen.
Rima Abdo is a dedicated yoga instructor based in the vibrant city of New York. Originally from Ohio, Rima's journey into the world of yoga began with her RYT-200 certification, which she acquired with great enthusiasm. Passionate about the power of yoga as a means to cultivate a deep connection between the mind and body, Rima's classes offer a transformative experience for her students.
Rima's yoga sessions create a harmonious blend of movement, breath, and introspection. She believes that through the practice of yoga, individuals can uncover a profound sense of self-awareness and find solace in the present moment.
Outside the yoga studio, Rima finds joy in exploring the great outdoors and immersing herself in the beauty of nature. Rima finds inspiration in books, constantly expanding her knowledge and exploring new realms of thought. You can often find her cozied up in a local coffee shop, drinking a cup of iced coffee while diving into her latest literary adventure.
