“The retreat was a deeply transformative and creatively renewing experience. The program was skillfully designed to support a gentle opening and letting go. In addition to the yoga practices, I loved the spiritual rituals, which were offered in many different forms. Overall, the retreat was a powerful spiritual and embodied journey. Our group was absolutely wonderful, and the facilitators were truly present with us, which strengthened the feeling of sisterhood. This retreat will stay in my heart as warm memories and in my body as a knowing of a deeper truth to follow. The Shakti-energy cultivation practices continue with me at home, supporting the journey ahead. A thousand thanks!”

“An unforgettable experience! A week full of beautiful memories, moments, and people. Even the villa itself is indescribably stunning. During the retreat, there was the perfect balance of rest and yoga to bring movement into the body. A perfect trip that I will always look back on with warmth.”

“Eva carries an incredible amount of authority and strength for someone her age. It creates a sense of safety. She is clearly a woman who has seen and experienced many things, and you can feel that when she holds space. There’s a kind of trust in her presence that is truly important.  When Eva played the Mexican instrument, it became very clear how she has lived there for a long time and how it’s still an important part of who she is and what she shares with others. It lives within her and rises to the surface when she holds space.”

Aino-Sofia Kojonen, Finland

“Eva has such a beautiful soul... and it comes through in every yoga class she teaches. She is incredibly knowledgeable, and guides you to do difficult poses, but you never feel judged if there is something you can't do. I can't really say that I'm sad that we met at a yoga retreat in Sicily, because how awesome was that?! But I'm sad that I didn't meet her in my home town so I can take her class every day. Eva, if you ever come to Denver, you have a place to stay, and please, PLEASE let me know if you ever teach at another retreat, I'll be there... and don't be surprised if I stalk you and show up to take one of your classes in Finland one day.”

Sherri Larson Casas, Sicily, Italy

“Sending gratitude to Eva for leading our yoga retreat in Sicily last week. Not only is she highly skilled and knowledgeable in cuing and creating an inspirational class, she connects with each student, offering gentle and loving guidance.”

Elizabeth Franke Meier, Sicily, Italy

“When I took part in my first retreat abroad, I could never have imagined that one week would change me so much! The best parts were the morning yoga, the spiritual rituals, and the personal time that gave me space to dive deeper into myself. My experience was enriched by the amazing women around me, with whom I got to share this beautiful journey. After experiencing the empowering energy of a retreat myself, I now truly hope that as many people as possible get to feel the same.“
