Sybil and Kim are both energetic and dynamic certified yoga instructors, recognized by Yoga Alliance, and are excited to share many experiences and space with others through retreats. Although they reside and teach in different states, they’ve been known to share laughs, playlists, class themes, and sequences across the distance. They are excited to bring their students together in one space. Expect retreats where you can let go, laugh, connect with others, and experience a variety of yoga styles, fit to your choosing.

This retreat was a fantastic experience from start to finish! Kim & Sybil created a friendly, warm and inclusive environment among the group. They thought out every detail and offered an a la carte itinerary with a variety of yoga classes, excursions and time at the resort’s pool and spa. Each guest’s experience could be tailored to their own desire. The resort was stunning, the staff was super accommodating and the food was healthy and delicious. I can’t wait to do another retreat with Kim and Sybil!

What an amazing trip! Kim and Sybil provided very timely updates and extra detailed information ahead of the trip to make planning logistics easy. I wasn't worried about a thing as I felt like they covered every question I would have. Once we were away in Costa Rica, we experienced the same thing - extra, thoughtful details that added to the overall experience for everyone. Both Kim and Sybil are excellent instructors and you can tell how much time and thought they put into their classes - from the music, to the flow, to the overall messages they shared...such an amazing experience and one that I will never forget. I couldn't have asked for more!

Kim & Sybil went above and beyond to provide the most incredible retreat I could've ever imagined! The retreat center was beautiful, the meals were fresh and delicious, and the jungle views were breathtaking. Not to mention the resident peacocks! Kim and Sybil offered a variety of yoga classes (meditation, power, restorative, workshops, etc.) which meant there was truly something for everyone. Both of them are highly experienced and professional teachers, who also don't take themselves too seriously! Their flows are dynamic, creative, playful, and FUN. The energy in the yoga room was always a direct reflection of the playful and vibrant energy that they brought into the space. Throughout each flow, modifications and progressions were both offered, giving each student the freedom to take it easy or to explore new challenges in shapes or transitions. There was also lots of variety in the itinerary, with plenty of opportunity for excursions and adventure, but equally as much time for rest and relaxation. Their communication throughout the months leading up to the trip was also top tier. They made sure we had all of the information we needed for easy prep/planning and a smooth day of travel... including shuttles to and from the airport! Their responsiveness and attention to detail gave me (and the rest of the yogis) space and time to fully settle in and relax, knowing that everything was already taken care of. They thought of everything! Highly recommend a retreat with these two!
