“The people you meet at the YTT are amazing, everyone from the teachers to your “classmates”, and the restaurant and accommodation staff. Our Vinyasa and alignment teacher was Gourav, he is very knowledgeable, funny and it was always a pleasure to attend his classes. You will learn a lot of things, eveyone will be open to help you and asnswer your questions. It really was one of the most heartwarming and beautiful experiences i’ve ever had, a lot of tears in aome of the classes (good tears) and i would highly recommend it! I would do it again tomorrow if i had the chance!”

“The hotel staff and everyone working there is so nice and friendly, communicative, and accommodating. Everyone at yoga union worked very hard to make the experience unique and beautiful, everything was taken care of and it was literally three weeks of no stress! The food was amazing, the instructors were the best.”
Review by John Z.
“The yoga teacher were incredible. Faye, Eleni, Alex and Ippo have so much knowledge and were always here for us. I was also so happy to have Angela, she does so much work and gave so much love and good vibes to all of us. The staff of Kosta Maria was sooo lovely, they carried about each of us so much. It’s not easy to cook for so many people with so many different kinds of allergies and ways of eating. Always fresh and tasty things. Great job!”
