THE NEXUS STORY
Nexus Institute for Yoga & Wellness grew out of two very different life journeys and a shared love of yoga, education, and human inquiry.
​
Janel spent more than twenty years as a cloistered Catholic nun before dedicating her life to yoga, embodied learning, and adult education. With a Ph.D. in Educational Studies, she brings a deep interest in how we learn, grow, and develop a more meaningful relationship with ourselves.
​
Horace spent more than two decades in international investment banking before following his own path into yoga and wellness.
​
We met in 2013 while teaching a yoga teacher training in Costa Rica. Long conversations overlooking the Pacific Ocean sparked a shared vision: to create a school where authentic yoga tradition, contemporary science, and meaningful human connection could come together.
That vision became Nexus Institute.
​
Today, we offer internationally recognized 200-Hour and 300-Hour Yoga Teacher Trainings and continuing education programs in the beautiful beach community of Nosara, Costa Rica.
​
Our approach brings together the wisdom of yoga, modern science, embodied learning, and thoughtful inquiry. We believe every student brings a unique story and a voice to the path of yoga. Our work is to help each person develop the knowledge, confidence, and authenticity to share their yoga with the world.
​
For us, Nexus is a place to learn, connect, discover, and grow. We feel fortunate to share this journey with the people who find their way here.
​
We look forward to welcoming you.
