ABOUT OUR TEACHERS

Passion for Yoga

We can ALL benefit from deepening our connection inward by moving our bodies and stretching our minds, by learning to see clearly and deeply, and allowing time and space for our highest destiny to come into clarity.

MEET ROSE

Yoga Teacher & Holistic Health Coach

Rose’s varied background spanning business, education, yoga, and health come together in her ownership of The Nest, Nectar of Maine, and to leading yoga classes at The Nest. 

​

Rose Heggeman began her personal yoga practice in 2002. Later, motherhood drew Rose deeper into understanding the importance of living a healthy and balanced life, leading her into the fields of nutrition and health coaching.

​

In 2014, Rose completed her training at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition Health. As a Certified Health Coach, she works with individuals to establish and guide them in action plans with measurable results related to health, wellness, and lifestyle. 

​

In 2016, as she became more deeply committed to yoga, Rose undertook yoga teacher training culminating in the Tula Institute Yoga Teacher RYT-200, completing her certification. Rose also completed her Bachelors of Arts in Health Arts and Sciences from Goddard College in 2016. 

​

That same year Rose began to lead a variety of yoga classes for children and adults that blended an approach that appeals to the senses using essential oils, inspired readings with her own lighthearted persona and a practiced, pragmatic eye in her teaching. 

In November of 2020 Rose took over Nectar of Maine in Bridgton, a plant-based smoothie and CBD shop with a small studio space on the second floor – now known as The Nest! 

​

In her spare time, Rose enjoys playing with her children, gardening & growing her own food- a family affair!
