Nicole Forman
With a background as both a lawyer and an academic, Nicole’s discovery of yoga was epiphanic. She moved from South Africa where she was born and raised, to Antwerp, Belgium at a moment where the local practice of yoga was in its infancy. Her life’s path shifted profoundly as Nicole began to explore yoga through intense practice and theoretical study.
Nicole was fortunate to learn and practice under various teachers and masters over the course of 2 decades. She is a registered yoga teacher (E-RYT) of the Yoga Alliance, certified in diverse yogic lineages including Ashtanga Vinyasa, Vinyasa Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga and is a certified Kundalini Yoga and Meditation Teacher through Kundalini Research Institute (KRI) as well as a prenatal yoga teacher trained in the Khalsa Way and other prenatal practices. Her areas of training include teaching yoga to children and yoga for emotional release, with a focus on healing.
Nicole Forman founded Aruna Yoga and developed the Yoga Alliance (200 and 500 hours) registered Aruna Yoga Teacher Training, with over 80 graduates registered according to the YA standards and offering accredited Yoga Alliance continuing education (YACEP®). She is the author of The Aruna Yoga Teacher Training Manual, The Aruna Yoga Manual on Āsana or Yoga Poses and Essential Aruna (in progress). She created the extensive online academic yoga training platform, www.arunayoga.online.
She is a certified Trauma Release Provider as developed by Dr David Berceli as well as a certified Journey Practitioner of The Journey Method, as developed by Brandon Bays.
Nicole’s academic qualifications include a BA (University of Witwatersand); LL B (University of Witwatersand), MA (University of Antwerp); and admission as a lawyer to the South African Board of Attorneys.
Nicole is also an artist who uses art and the creation of yantra (yogic symbol) and sacred geometry as a practice of meditation. She includes art as part of the Aruna process as an additional tool in the practice of self enquiry.
Nicole currently teaches Aruna Yoga offering weekly classes, trainings, retreats and workshops in Israel and internationally with a focus on disseminating the practice both for personal use and as a teacher training to leaders in various areas, including conflict areas, health and education.

Anya Bloom was introduced to TRE® in 2011 by Dr. Melanie Salmon from South Africa and was immediately captivated by the method. She recognized its huge potential to benefit the large number of people in our society who have to deal with anxiety, stress and trauma on an ongoing basis and so, soon after, began her training and became a TRE® Certified Provider (2013) and a TRE® Global Certification Trainer (2015).
Anya has taught TRE® to hundreds of Individuals and Groups and as a Trainer has worked with and trained and supervised Trainees in Israel, South Africa, England & Nepal. Presently Anya teaches and trains TRE® Providers from all over the world online with Su Thomas, a South African TRE® Global Certification Trainer.
Anya recognises the relevancy of TRE® to the the treatment of the continuum of stress and trauma from previous exposure to the methods that recognise “tremor or shaking” as a often missing link in the completion of the instinctive Fight and Flight cycle used by humans to survive stresses and trauma. She sees TRE® as being a self-help tool for individuals that when taught with proper guidance from a Certified Provider can provide emotional and physical healing of anxiety and stress related disorders. This is because TRE® works at the deepest levels of the body where stress and trauma originate.
Anya is a Licensed Physiotherapist with 30 years of experience working with adult populations in the field of rehabilitation, and over the years, has worked as a physiotherapist in Ireland, England the United States, Belgium and Israel. Prior to opening in partnership her private clinic, Mifne Physiotherapy Clinic, based in Netanya, Anya was the physiotherapist-in-charge of the Intensive Care Unit for Head Injuries in Beit Lowenstein in Ra’anana, Israel. Today, the Mifne Physiotherapy Clinic treats adults with a wide range of orthopaedic and neurological problems and is recognised by the Israel Ministry of Defence.
