Early life and background of Nicole McPherson
Nicole was born in Hong Kong but lived her whole life in Sydney, Australia. When she was young, her parents would always tell her to “stop bouncing” because she was jumping all over the place. Nicole liked to jump on her bed, climb the trees and swing upside down from the branches. When she was 6 years old, her neighbour introduced Nicole to gymnastics, which became her whole world. Suddenly, she was encouraged to bounce around by her trainers and taught new tricks. Nicole worked hard and became a professional competitive gymnast, as she stayed for many years. Eventually, she stopped at the end of high school when she decided to try out other activities.
While her passion for movement didn’t disappear, Nicole became interested in dancing. She was curious and tried out many forms of dance, such as ballet, hip-hop, jazz and Latin American dancing. Even though she gave a shot to all of those, Nicole found herself in Latin American dancing. She started to learn new moves and synchronise with her dancing partner. Eventually, she started competing in Latin American dancing and obtained a few accomplishments. As she got older, Nicole became tired of competing and started to focus on teaching others. She got her certifications and began to teach dancing to kids and adults.
Yoga journey of Nicole McPherson
Nicole got introduced to yoga by her mother, who liked to practise it once in a while. Nicole enjoyed it because it reminded her of gymnastics which she loved to do. But unfortunately, Nicole didn’t have enough time to learn yoga since she was a child with other responsibilities. Once she started competing in Latin American dancing, Nicole turned back and realised that yoga might help her to stay in shape. She began practising yoga twice a week to maintain her strength, heighten her flexibility and calm her mind. Since she was so used to competing, Nicole found her yoga practises strangely peaceful and found herself coming back to them. She fell in love with this form of exercise that allowed her to focus on herself and was free of competing.
Move With Nicole
Since she was enjoying her new passion, Nicole decided that she wanted to share it with others. In order to do that, she created her YouTube channel called Move With Nicole in 2019. Prior to that, she got certified as a Pilates and Yoga instructor, so she would pass on only the correct advice. Even though it might not seem like it, Pilates comes in handy when someone is practising yoga for a long time. More advanced yoga positions require a lot of strength, which is why Nicole does both regularly. Her most popular video is 30 Min Full Body Workout / At-Home Pilates, with over 7,6 million views. Nicole found her audience who enjoy practising yoga and working out under her guidance.
Nicole knows how hard yoga can get. She often finds herself in the most unflattering positions while trying to learn a new exercise. That’s why she’s so patient with herself and her fans while introducing a new move. She has the advantage of living near a beach, which is why she often films her workouts in the sand with a beautiful background. Her workouts are divided into outdoor and at-home workouts, whether she’s filming yoga or Pilates video. She often combines those two to build strength and flexibility at the same time. Nicole offers longer workout videos but makes sure to take breaks with some calming yoga positions.
