"I spent 4 glorious weeks in Bali studying, practicing, and living yoga with Evolation training, and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Leaving behind many challenges at home, including my grandmother's cancer diagnosis and my partner's surgery, was emotional, but the excitement of immersing myself in yoga in a tropical paradise was worth it."
