MEET YOUR HOSTS

Nicolas Giacommi MC Yogi

Nicolas Giacommi, known most commonly as MC YOGI has an inspiring life story worth sharing, from living in a group home for at-risk youth to becoming a renowned yoga teacher and musical innovator, MC YOGI is on a mission to bring good music and good energy into the world. Having grown up immersed in hip hop culture before finding yoga in his teens, he naturally began to integrate the two, setting yogic wisdom to hip hop beats. The result was a compelling new sound and series of successful albums. His first three records were all #1 on iTunes World Music and his latest, Ritual Mystical, was #1 on Electronic Music. He has since toured the world many times over headlining at every major yoga festival. In 2017 HarperOne published his memoir, Spiritual Graffiti, which won a silver Nautilus award for best memoir. When MC YOGI is not on tour, he lives with his wife Amanda and teaches at their studio, Point Reyes Yoga, in Northern California. For more about MC YOGI visit mcyogi.com

Amanda Giacommi 10,000 Buddhas

Amanda Giacomini, known by many in the yoga and art world as 10,000 Buddhas, is a skill-full artist, yoga teacher and gifted storyteller. Her 10,000 Buddhas project was inspired by ancient Buddhist artwork in the Ajanta caves in India. This experience sparked an awakening which led her on a mission to paint 10,000 Buddhas. Now 10,000+ later, 10,000 Buddhas has become a worldwide, highly sought after art project, including large scale murals, fine art paintings, works on paper, and apparel. She’s taught yoga everywhere from prestigious art museums & yoga conferences, to The White House and the Forbidden City in China. She’s not on tour with her husband MC YOGI you can find her at home in Northern California, where she teaches regular weekly classes at her studio Point Reyes Yoga. For more about Amanda visit 10000buddhas.com.

Did you know? Amanda's very first international mural was completed here at Sansara in our open-aired yoga shala. We feel so blessed with the presence of these Buddhas watching over all our yogis.

Marti Nikko and DJ DREZ Special Guests

DJ Drez is in demand as a producer, musical director and sound ambassador. A master of his craft in the studio and on stage, Drez cuts and composes profoundly original tracks that facilitate body movement practice of all forms— be it dance, yoga asana or after-hours intimate/ecstatic. Drez transforms the vibe of any scene his sound is set upon. Rooted in underground L.A. hiphop, Dr. EZ applies precise turn-table skills to a cutting edge vision for truly universal music, intelligently integrating elements of hiphop, world music, soul, funk, jazz, and reggae into his trademark sound and production.

Marti met DJ Drez shortly after high school, when they began performing and recording together. Over two decades, their collaboration has become an intimate musical language that effortlessly translates into and between many styles of music, including hip hop, reggae, kirtan, jazz and soul. Listen to any of DJ Drez’s albums and you’ll hear Marti Nikko’s unmistakably rich and nuanced voice. Her full-length albums, Dreaming In Sanskrit on Black Swan Sounds, Explorers of Infinity and Dreaming in Sanskrit Verse Two on Nectar Drop, combines her instinctive musicality with deeply devoted mantra practice.
