Yoga Teachers
JoAnn and Nirel first connected as yoga instructors at the same studio, bonding over their shared passion for practices that prioritize rest and relaxation—Nirel through restorative yoga and JoAnn through sound healing and yoga nidra. Now, they unite their expertise to create a tranquil space where you can unwind and recharge.
JoAnn Bonifacio
Meet JoAnn, a passionate yoga practitioner and instructor whose day feels incomplete without her daily yoga practice. Her journey began with a deep love for stretching, relaxation, and well-being, eventually leading her to immerse herself in the yogic lifestyle at Satchidananda Ashram for two enriching years. There, she delved into the teachings of Integral Yoga, exploring paths like Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Raja Yoga, and Jnana Yoga, while earning her Integral Yoga Hatha teacher certification and yoga nidra certification. JoAnn's Hatha Yoga classes reflect the holistic essence of Integral Hatha Yoga, incorporating chanting, asanas, pranayama, yoga nidra, and meditation. Through her teachings, JoAnn invites students to embark on a journey of self-discovery, balance, and personal growth.
Nirel Salazar
Nirel is a second-generation Filipino-American yoga teacher specializing in Restorative Yoga, a practice of stillness, release, and rest. Through her experience with impostor syndrome, mental fatigue, burnout, and depression, Nirel learned that there was more to wellness than trying to fit in 8 hours of sleep every night. Yoga taught her that wellness is multifaceted and inspired her to share her knowledge and experiences with others through teaching. Nirel hosts Restorative Yoga events throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, enhancing the experience with sound healing to deepen relaxation and release. Her mission is to provide an opportunity to pause, reflect, and rest. Learn more at www.nireltheyogini.com.
