"Wish she knew better "

Thina is a knowledgeable individual, but she is not a professional yoga instructor. Unfortunately, I did not feel respected by her during our practice sessions. There were a few instances where I mentally froze, and although I tried to let it go and befriend her, she continued to make me feel uncomfortable about my age. Four days before completing the training, I made the decision to not continue and to remove myself from her presence in order to maintain my own safety and focus on my personal journey. I found solace in the beautiful nature of the city and wish Thina healing, peace, and love.

I loved her assistant Alexandra!

"The best yttc"

The ttc was a life changing experience. Tina is the most knowledgable teacher I could ever wished for. She created friendly, safe and peaceful environment. Everything was excellent from classes of hatha yoga and philosophy through food and accomodation. It was better than I expected. And some extra points are for the best dog friend Rex.

"Memories to last a lifetime "

I loved that Thina, Alex and Rex made me feel like home from the moment I arrived. Everything is so organized and VERY clean! I learned so much about myself during the course and felt that you get more than your money’s worth. Thina has dedicated her life to yoga and is so knowledgeable and kind. She’s really put so much effort into making this course what it is and I’m forever grateful for her. Truly life changing for me

"Amazing experience at the Shala! "

Thina is an amazing teacher and I learned so much from her. The course was done with so much effort and love and I grew so much as a teacher and practitioner. Thina and Alex always went above and beyond for us and made us feel really at home and I already can’t wait to go back for more courses and visits in the future! I couldn’t recommend learning from Thina more highly!

"Amazing experience, really good deep knowledge based on the "

Everything was really amazing. The programm of the day was really well balanced with differents subjects (practice, adjustments, philosophy,...) I deeply enjoyed it. The supports were also really interactive, I never got bored.

Thina has a really deep knowledge of yoga and I was such happy to learn deeply of yoga philosophy. The practice and adjusments was really good too. I really liked that all were based on roots of yoga, on old scripts. Thina did an amazing work for all the supports ans knowledge that you will receive.

It was for me a really completed training, I received more than I had expected.

Thank you for everything

Bela is an extremely knowledgable teacher and clearly very committed to the Ashtanga practice. She shared incredible insights to help us orientate our practice.

"Awesome course!!!!"

There is not enough words to describe how good this course was, but know that it's truly recamended.

Tina made a course putting all her heart into it and made a whole circled programme knowing that it would push and develop you a a teacher.

There is a great amount of philosophy and history giving you an independent understanding of what yoga is.

In terms of understanding postures, bio mechanics, and how to make assessment and general training in the different styles. That it comes so plenty, that it at times can seem like you hang on.

You also get plenty of experience teaching!!

With the course I got to grow in ways i never considered and I was challenged in an healthy and positive way.

Tina breathes and lives yoga, and the teaching it not comes from somebody better.

Alex will make sure you are fed and serve the most amazing food. There is an amazing roof top to enjoy and train on to.

I don't have any regreats, but if I did it would be not being able to take more in.

It was truly an amazing course.

"A Great Experience"

Everything has been done to maximize the learning and well-being of the students: excellent practical and theoretical courses (demonstrations, explanations, adjustments, choice of texts and video supports for the philosophical part), work carried out with excellent skill and dedication on behalf of Thina who, moreover, is a very warm, welcoming and open person. The duo Thina-Alex (chef and manager) deserves the Palme ...

It was also 2 weeks of work on yourself and refocusing, in a very pleasant environment.

I warmly recommend this training both to those who are already experienced in the practice of yoga and to those who seek to acquire a solid foundation in their practice (as was my case).

"The best Yoga Teacher training "

I cannot put into words just how much I have enjoyed, learned and thrived during my Yin Yoga teacher training at Yoga Fusion Shala, Ioannina. Not only the location for how stunningly beautiful the natural surroundings are, with Breathtaking Mountains and the Lake but it is Thina and Alex that have my experience truly unforgettable and even life changing.

Thina is very special soul and highly knowledgeable in the philosophy of Yoga practise. She is totally and utterly commited as a Yogi and as a trainer. I was so warmly welcomed from the start and the training was so professionally managed from start to finish in such a logical and well structured way, I felt I learned so much every day I was learning growing as a Teacher and as a person. Myself and Thina went so deep into the philosophy that I even felt a shift of awareness regarding my own spirituality. I can honestly say I learned more in those few days with Thina than my entire 8 months of study doing 200hrs YTTC at home. She transformed my teaching and my practise with Adjustments, philosophy, anatomy, breathwork, asana, props, teachers planning, she made everything so digest-able and made sure that I understood every single category before moving forward. I also want to say a huge thankyou to Alex who works behind the scenes of the beautiful Yoga Shala who cooked us the most incredible Vegetarian Ayurvedic food you could ever dream of. I em eternally grateful for this incredible time I will never forget.
