After studying hard-style, then soft-style martial arts, he began learning yoga postures, then meditation, and then encountered Ayurveda, which was not well-known in America in 1991. He followed his heart, quit his job, and spent the next several years studying Ayurveda, Sanskrit, chanting, and yoga philosophy with the best teachers he could find. Every science\/practice from India that he was exposed to drew him deeper into the wonderful matrix of Vedic wisdom. Along the way, Nicolai earned formal credentials in the form of an MA in Eastern Philosophy, an MS in Nutrition, and an E-RYT 500 registration. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Nicolai studied extensively in mostly one-on-one or small-class environments at the American Sanskrit Institute, the Ayurvedic Institute, the American Institute of Vedic Studies, and the Vedic Chant Center. His education combines informal, traditional study with the academic rigor of university classes. He has a knack for synthesizing and organizing complex topics into simple and understandable presentations, expressed in the classes he teaches and in his publications which include \u003ci\u003eThe Language of Yoga\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Path of the Yoga Sutras\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Language of Ayurveda\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Language of Jyotisha\u003c\/i\u003e, and\u003ci\u003e 108 Sanskrit Flash Cards. \u003c\/i\u003eNicolai actively teaches to groups and individuals both virtually and in-person.
