Meet the Collective
Nicole Hamilton, Director
Hi! I’m Nicole of Yogabird Studios. I teach yoga to groups, and individuals, I lead teacher trainings and continuing education programming and am the Director of Moon River Yoga Collective.
My style of teaching is steady, functional and energetically focused. My goal is to help facilitate the ‘ah-ha!’ moments in class. I love learning about the energetic systems in the body and how to read and understand that energy. I love helping others do the same. I seek guidance in tarot cards, charge crystals on the full moon and study astrology to better understand our universe (or at least my part in it).
Whether you are interested in practicing or teaching yoga, getting a tarot reading or deep diving into astrology, I’d love to connect!
Amanda Gray
Amanda Gray is a yoga instructor with ten years of teaching experience. She discovered yoga in 2011 and immediately felt its power to bring both emotional and physical balance. That experience sparked her commitment to study and eventually share the practice with others. Amanda trained under Natasha Rizopolous of Down Under Yoga in Boston, whose focus on alignment and accessibility continues to shape her teaching. Her classes blend clear alignment cues, a sense of play, and a deep respect for each student’s individual experience. She teaches a range of styles—from vinyasa flow to restorative—and is a certified pre-natal yoga instructor with over 500 hours of training and certifications. Amanda is dedicated to honoring yoga’s sacred roots while creating inclusive spaces for all students. She’s especially interested in yoga philosophy, diversity, and the intersection of mindfulness and social awareness. Off the mat, Amanda is a writer who finds joy in live music, travel, reading, and connecting with her community through yoga.
