Emily Nurthen
Hi! My name is Emilly, and I’m passionate about Zumba! The reason is simple: Every class feels like a party! The core of my Zumba classes are Latin rhythms (salsa, cumbia, merengue, reggaeton) but I always incorporate a global flair; you might hear a K-pop/J-pop, flamenco, soca or bhangra. I’ll make you sweat, but you’ll have a blast. Come join me!

Nikki Verhoff
Nikki Verhoff began her exploration into yoga in 1997, while studying dance in college. A life-long mover, Nikki’s first foray into asana practice was both a support for, and a release from, a very physically demanding lifestyle. At the same time, and for more than a decade, Nikki has trained in traditional Japanese karate, which has brought with it a commitment to seated meditation as an important instrument to understanding the Self. These days, her interest in yoga has evolved to include an ongoing study of pranayama and the subtlety and power of the breath. In class, Nikki taps into the physical and philosophical influences these experiences have brought her to create an integrated practice with a focus on alignment, breath, and mindfulness. Nikki is a recent graduate of the Piedmont Yoga Deep Yoga Undergraduate Program.
