Tara, Jess, and Noelle provided a phenomenal experience for my body and soul! Tara took care of all of the details flawlessly and the yoga classes with Jess and Noelle were amazing - especially the morning classes on the rooftop shala with the most incredible views ever. The accommodations were perfect and the food was delicious, too.
