Amanda Farrell and Trevor Gribble
Trevor and Amanda’s relationship is itself like an adventure yoga retreat. After meeting and discovering that they both had a passion for teaching yoga (and each other!), they took the risk of moving across the world together just 5 months later. Beginning their adventure in Australia, the couple hasn’t looked back in 3 years, teaching yoga full-time and offering retreats spanning the globe. From the wine countries of New Zealand to pilgrimages in the Indian Himalaya to the beaches of Goa and the jungles of Bali, T&A love sharing adventure with their students. Their travels hit a high note in August 2015, when they became engaged following their final class in the magical country of New Zealand. These newly-titled fiances will travel onward to Europe in 2016 and hope to meet you in some exotic Mediterranean locations.
Partners in love, yoga, and travel, T&A are trained in a variety of ancient and contemporary yoga lineages, and continue to immerse in more every year to evolve their teaching style. They believe in a balanced approach to yoga asana, incorporating fluid dynamic movement to remove physical and energetic restrictions, strength work to harness the stabilizing and healing potential of the core, plus soft therapeutic & yin asana to ensure a safe and sustainable yoga practice as our bodies age. Daily pranayama, meditation, and themes on vedic yoga philosophy are included within their retreat experience.
Finally, they realize that when a retreat comes to a close and the group returns to the daily grind, the main thing that everyone remembers and talks about is the FOOD. T&A are dedicated to providing delicious meals on their trips. Their current traveling lifestyle is heavily focused on enjoying a delicious yet healthy diet. Inspired by the perfectly balanced Indian “thali” plates, guests can expect an exquisite sampling of local cuisine, customized to the retreat region.
Retreat Yourself Well is very happy to include Trevor and Amanda in the Ambassador Program as their adventurous and soulful style of teaching allows for you to have both a playful experience in a addition to a spiritual awakening.
