Words cannot express the gratitude I have for this amazing learning experience with the most wonderful humans!I leaped out of my introverted comfort zone, into this adventure - fresh out of surgery, with no experience in acro or yoga!

This acro & yoga retreat was in my top two vacations ever. James and Lauren both did an absolutely amazing job teaching yoga and acroyoga. Lauren really brought it home with some excellent yoga classes helping us improve our strength, balance and flexibility. She also included spiritual teachings, which I greatly appreciate, around being present with our feelings & stretching our comfort zones to make room for growth. James is super fun to work with, incredibly skilled, an excellent base, willing to lift one person after the other on the beach to get those great pics - such a beast!!! I have to add that he is an all around great guy who shines from the inside out and gives the best HUGS ever! Our practice space where we had class was the most beautiful spot ever, overlooking the ocean!!! I would have gone for the view alone. You can hear and see the ocean from everywhere on the property. SO GORGEOUS. It was heaven. The food was excellent also and the chefs made a great effort to adhere to everyone's dietary restrictions. I'm so grateful for all of it. Everyone was amazing and it was an experience of a lifetime.

I feel very lucky to have stumbled on to the gift of this practice, and I love that now I get to introduce it to others. I get to encourage the uncovering and discovering that inevitably comes along with it, not only during the asanas, but during those unexpected quiet moments of stillness…those golden moments where you find yourself going inward, and you find yourself. I’m SO excited to continue being a student of yoga…to continue being a teacher of yoga…to keep moving on this path

About your instructors

Tina Bock has taught workshops, retreats, trainings, and private lessons all over the world, including the US, Canada, UAE, Lebanon, Kuwait, Germany, Italy, Greece, Nicaragua, Thailand, The Netherlands, and Bali. 

Tina’s yoga journey began over a decade ago while being (happily) dragged by her father to local Jersey Shore classes. Yoga didn’t become a constant until after graduating from College. Tina quickly fell in love with Hot Vinyasa mostly in the style of Dharma Mittra. In 2012 at age 23, she took her first of now seven trips to India to study and discover real yoga. 


She enrolled in a “Multi-Style” course at Trimurti Yoga and received her first 200-hour teacher certificate. In 2014 Tina and her husband relocated to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, where she  found a real need to develop a self-practice because of her lack of teachers. Tina felt a burning desire to learn more about Mysore, Ashtanga, and the eight limbs of yoga, so she enrolled for one month studying with Saraswathi Jois at the K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute. She has since been back every year to study with Sharath Jois who has now become her teacher and guru. 

Tina is currently practicing Intermediate series under KPJAYI and is an Authorized Level II teacher.

I have to add that he is an all around great guy who shines from the inside out and gives the best HUGS ever! Our practice space where we had class was the most beautiful spot ever, overlooking the ocean!!! I would have gone for the view alone. You can hear and see the ocean from everywhere on the property. SO GORGEOUS. It was heaven. The food was excellent also and the chefs made a great effort to adhere to everyone's dietary restrictions. I'm so grateful for all of it. Everyone was amazing and it was an experience of a lifetime.

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE! THE QUALITY OF THE TEACHING AND EDUCATION WAS TRULY FANTASTIC. THE STAFF ALONG WITH ALL OF THE EXPERT GUEST SPEAKERS WERE SUPER SUPPORTIVE AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. I FEEL WELL EQUIPPED AND EXCITED TO GO OUT INTO THE WORLD AND SHARE WHAT I HAVE LEARNED. I ESPECIALLY LOVED THAT WE WERE ENCOURAGED TO EMBRACE OUR OWN STYLE OF TEACHING.

I feel very lucky to have stumbled on to the gift of this practice, and I love that now I get to introduce it to others. I get to encourage the uncovering and discovering that inevitably comes along with it, not only during the asanas, but during those unexpected quiet moments of stillness…those golden moments where you find yourself going inward, and you find yourself. I’m SO excited to continue being a student of yoga…to continue being a teacher of yoga…to keep moving on this path

NOT JUST AN AVERAGE YOGA TRAINING; IT WAS AN ENRICHING LIFE EXPERIENCE. I LEARNED SO MUCH ABOUT THE MANY ASPECTS OF YOGA AND MEDITATION. AS WELL AS MORE ABOUT MYSELF. I RECEIVED THE TOOLS TO LEAD A MORE EMPOWERED AND CONSCIOUS LIFE. THE GENUINE LOVE, GUIDANCE AND SUPPORT FROM THE SKILLED INSTRUCTORS AND MY FELLOW STUDENTS WAS APPARENT ON A DAILY BASIS AND SO APPRECIATED. I ENJOYED EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS COMPREHENSIVE AND WELL-PLANNED PROGRAM. GREAT VARIETY OF KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE, AND LASTING FRIENDSHIPS. I’M FOREVER GRATEFUL.

What is Yin Yoga?

Yin yoga is a gentle type of yoga that focuses on holding poses for longer periods. It targets the deep connective tissues in your body, like ligaments and fascia, to increase flexibility and improve joint mobility.

Yin Yoga is all letting gravity do the work, and finding stillness in poses to help release tension and promote a sense of calmness.

Yin yoga combines traditional Hatha yoga with the ancient wisdom of Chinese Traditional Medicine, incorporating the concept of meridians, energy pathways in the body. Practicing yin yoga is said to stimulate these meridians, balancing the body’s energy flow and enhancing overall well-being.

Yin yoga also has a powerful impact on the parasympathetic nervous system, the part of our nervous system responsible for relaxation and restoration. When we hold gentle poses for an extended time in yin yoga, it triggers the parasympathetic nervous system, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and allowing the body and mind to recover. 

I just wanted to say thank you for this incredible experience! I loved every minute of this training and I also felt very safe to share my thoughts & experience with you. I‘m truly grateful that I was able to participate and learn more about Yoga & myself. I couldn‘t imagine a better first YTT and even more so since it was online and not in-person.
