She is an E-RYT 200hr yoga teacher from Jamaica who teaches yoga at Yoga Barn in Bali and leads yoga retreats in her home country of Jamaica. She is the former UN Chief of Operations in the Central African Republic, and has lived a life of service in emergency response, prior to her dedicating herself to healing others through yoga.

Nadine also goes by the moniker, Universal Empress, a name that embodies her energy and her intention. She is a global being, and believes wholeheartedly in the power of women. As she says, “We are not rising, we have risen.”

Get ready to deep dive into a powerful conversation about listening to the body, tuning into your inner navigation system, women’s circles, and what Nadine envisions as the future of yoga for the Western world.

Excited? I know I am. Get ready to dive in!

Tell me more about Nadine…

Nadine McNeil is no stranger to moments of crisis. A global gallivanter who goes by the moniker Universal Empress online, for nearly two decades, prior to her deep dive into yoga in 2008, Nadine travelled the world in service of the UN, UNICEF, Global Volunteer Network and Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. She was the former UN Chief of Operations in the Central African Republic and UNICEF humanitarian who is now based in Bali as a yoga instructor and personal coach at Yoga Barn in Ubud. These and other experiences rooted Nadine’s continued devotion to activism. Nadine McNeil’s mission as a yoga teacher, speaker, wisdom mentor, and humanitarian is to ignite infinite possibility in people around the world and share yoga especially with diverse underserved communities. Inspired by her firsthand encounters with both the resilience of the human spirit and also its suffering, Nadine’s talks, workshops, yoga sessions, Women’s Circles and retreats are continually described as powerful, moving and insightful. As her Women’s Circles continue to gain global traction, women from across the world who have sat with her in Circle, have returned to their communities to offer this necessary and important work.
