Instructors

Dayna Henderson

Dayna opened a yoga studio in Midlothian Texas. Owning her studio allowed Dayna to serve and make a difference in her community - something she is passionate about. She still cherishes the memories she made - on and off the mat. Since selling her yoga studio, Dayna has enjoyed teaching kids yoga, beer yoga, goat yoga, chair yoga, and in private parties. She loves the experience of bonding over yoga. Dayna is also a licensed realtor, which pays the bills and allows her to pursue her passion of teaching yoga. Dayna is a proud single mom of 2 beautiful children. Motherhood keeps her

Tarka Sullivan

In 2010, Tarka sought support for my health and wellness through nutrition as she faced increasing effects of having Hepatitis C for over 20 years. After finding a treatment and renewed hope for the future, she returned to my yoga practice. She enjoyed the connections with the other students and started teacher training with Om Yoga Journey in 2017. She is now a 500RYT and an Ayurveda Lifestyle Counselor.

Meet the chef

Chef Angelic Gabo comes from a family of self-starters. Her culinary career began at eight years old as a dishwasher in her family’s small restaurant, where love and respect for food were paramount in teachings from her parents. It was only a short four years later, at the age of twelve, that she began cooking and preparing meals. By age fifteen, this predominately Filipino cuisine was being sold to customers.

Throughout this time, the kitchen became Chef Angelic's happy place. She moved to the US six years ago to work as a special education teacher, only to quickly thereafter take a leap of faith and pursue her passion for preparing her highly sought-after meals in both private dining settings and in meal-prep fashion. Seeing her customers happy and sharing enjoyment and appreciation for food is what keeps her going.

Chef Angelic’s specialties are crafting Asian fusion dishes and plating. Angelic enjoys going out to eat and trying new restaurants - from fine dining to hole-in-the-wall - especially when traveling.

Chef Angelic believes in whole food that’s equally as fun to make as it is to be eaten and enjoyed. She is extremely excited and grateful to be working with the amazing women at Retreat in the Pines.
