All is in layman aka real life lingo, you do not have to be a yogi to follow along, or incorporate the learnings to your personal experiences. I have ZERO physical yoga experience, and even as a remote learner, Tina makes learning the moves, breathing and the RELEASE so easy. The best part of this group, is no judgement. Doesn't matter if you're an expert or a newbie, you will get something out of it. I am repeatedly amazed by the simplicity of the moves, yet I can FEEL IT. I've also done an individual reading from Tina. AH-MAZING. So accurate. SO HELPFUL. And thought provoking in moving things to perspective, and a right frame of mind that eases. Truly a spirit lifting experience. And some laughs along the way.

We went on a yoga retreat to Bali with Alisha and Mindful Balance Retreats in November 2016.  We…read morehad a fantastic time and met many new friends.  Alisha is very knowledgeable about yoga and international travel.  We were in a group of about twenty people and we were amazed at the ease with which Alisha was able to integrate her concept of mindful balance into our group of different personalities.  Alisha was such a gracious host and by the second day, there was such a great vibe within our group.  The morning yoga was extraordinary and Alisha made sure that each person felt comfortable in the class regardless of their yoga experience.  The personal touch that she demonstrates toward every individual is truly inspiring and by the end of the week I could see many people in the group advancing in their yoga practice.  Alisha is also a great travel planner and guide.  Bali is an exotic location that is truly a unique experience.  Alisha had daily plans available for anybody who wished to participate and she had obviously done her homework on the best places to eat, drink, shop, relax, and enjoy the beautiful beaches and temples.  We highly recommend Alisha because of her commitment to the practice of yoga, her peaceful energy, and her energetic personality.

She is such an adventurer and excellent yoga instructor that she took me out of my comfort zone and allowed to expand and challenge myself in new ways, which shifted my prospective of what I could achieve as a lifestyle. All the travel arrangements were excellent and the food at the resort was healthy and delicious. Plus she also plans a lot of extra fun events to enjoy. So by all means become an adventurer and hit the road with Alisha!

I have been doing private yoga sessions with Leslie consistently for the last year. She is very…read moreknowledgeable and is a wonderful teacher. She has helped me to develop a strong foundation for my yoga practice. She has taught me how to use yoga to heal and stretch my body.

Updating my review as I just returned for my second retreat with Mel, this time with a friend, and…read moreI'm happy to report it was everything I remembered and more. I'm so glad I went back to continue building on the foundation laid the first time. As a new mom navigating some professional uncertainty, this season of life is presenting very different challenges than the season I was in on my last retreat, and yet, I realized that my thought patterns had reverted to the same trap - a feeling that outside accomplishments dictate my inner value. It's been an incredible shift to feel that intrinsic value back in my body and my heart. Getting to experience the retreat with a close friend was an added benefit, and Mel did a great job tailoring the experience to be transformative for both of us. October 16 2024: This retreat was one of the best things I've done for myself. I was burned out and on a hamster wheel of work, worry, stress repeat. Out of sheer desperation I went online and booked an experience with Mel, knowing little about what was in store for me. Through her pre-session meetings, I got a better sense, but you never really know until you get there. From the moment I set foot on the property, I felt serene and taken care of. Mel is incredible in so many ways: as a host, a curator of experiences tailored to your specific energy and season of life, and a cook of amazing, nutritious meals. Best of all, she hones in on the practical elements of a spiritual transformation that you can take back to "real life" with you so that your shift transcends the amazing but brief time in the desert. It's been two weeks since I returned from the retreat and the impact is lasting. Most profound is the realization that my happiness is not contingent upon doing or achieving anything. This has removed a perfectionist tendency and (perhaps ironically) allowed me to be far more productive with less pressure on myself. When I meditate, I remember the look of the stars in Joshua Tree, and somehow, I'm accessing the same incredible feeling. If you're on the fence about booking this, all I can say is it's worth it.

I just wanted to invite more peace and calm into my otherwise stressful life…read moreMel responded to me quickly and made me feel the exact peace and calm I was seeking. She took time to meet me on a video call which made me decide to book! I felt confident about returning home with the new tools Mel gave me!

I have increased my core strength greatly and have become much more conscious of my posture and how I use my body all day working as a massage therapist. Kat is simply an expert. I refer my clients to her regularly. I have complete confidence in her and that is what I need when I send someone to another practitioner! She is passionate about her work and is always prepared with a specific lesson plan for each visit. You understand her expertise when you see her demonstrate the most challenging exercises with complete mastery and ease. Amazing really! She is knows the body, is continually expanding her knowledge base and brings warmth, sincerity and enthusiasm to each class.

Kat is the hidden Yoga gem of Fallbrook . I had been in search of an authentic Yoga teacher for…read moreyears before I discovered her Hilltop class. In addition to her obvious physical fitness and many years of experience and training, she has unparalleled attention to form and technique and gives individualized advice based on her client's specific needs. Practicing yoga with her has increased my overall strength and flexibility AND reduced stress and anxiety. She begins each class with a well thought out reflection on life, these reflections strike close to home and heart and brings the class full circle. I have a new appreciation and understanding of the mind-body-spirit connection. I am looking forward to continuing her class indefinitely. It is the only real "fountain of youth", in the sense that it improves the quality of life and makes the years that we have here more vibrant and fulfilling. She has a way of conveying the simple truths of Yoga and getting real results though form, technique and reminders to approach life with an Attitude of Gratitude. It is a true blessing to have this woman teaching here in Fallbrook!

I have also taken a pilates class she teaches and it is amazing (mind you i am struggling in the corner just to straighten my legs and she is twisted into so weird bendy shape I will never manage!) As an instructor she is vibrant and bubbly and (a biggie for me) not intimidating. My mother in law and I go together and there is lots of other women (and a few fellas!) that have been singing up (through the city of Escondido) session after session. We are loyal to our Angie!!! I highly recommend her to anyone as a Zumba/Bokwa/pilates/whatever-other-class instructor and also as a personal trainer!
