Nanci has been pushing human limits and living on the fringes of civilization as a Lifestyle Yoga practitioner and teacher for over 25 years. She has traveled the world seeking knowledge, justice and good beer. When she is not on her mat: Nanci is building community, dreaming of food forests and sustainable agriculture, walking hundreds of miles through unknown lands with her dog, wildly chanting Sanskrit to the Thunder Gods and chasing Bantam chickens.
