Tina Guo, Founder & Teacher

Tina began her yoga journey in 2010, drawn by curiosity and a desire to explore something new. What started as a personal practice soon unfolded into a profound path of self-discovery, inner awareness, and transformation. Over the years, yoga has become far more than a physical discipline for her—it has become a way of living that continues to shape how she moves through life, relates to herself, and connects with the world around her.

Raised in a rural environment where traditional expectations often defined what was considered possible for women, Tina grew up in a culture that valued security and convention over self-expression. Yet even during financially limited years in college, she chose to invest in practices like yoga and dance—choices that may have seemed impractical to others, but ultimately became pivotal in helping her reconnect with her inner world. Those early experiences opened a doorway to something much deeper: a life guided not by external expectations, but by authenticity, purpose, and a growing trust in her own inner knowing.

Through years of study and practice, Tina has come to believe that love, joy, peace, and connection are not distant ideals to be earned, but essential qualities already within us. Yoga, for her, is a practice of remembrance—a return to what is most true beneath conditioning, fear, and self-doubt. Through her teaching, she hopes to create spaces where others can reconnect with that truth, awaken their innate wisdom, and live with greater presence, clarity, and wholeness.

Veronica DeRosa, Co-founder & Teacher

BSN, RN, NC-BC, CBC, RYT 500, IAYT-Q

Veronica has been in the health care field for over 25 years. She first came to yoga looking for a way to sustain her work as an Oncology Nurse. This opened the door to viewing health not only through the western lens, but through the lens of treating the whole person. This new outlook led Veronica to find integrative modalities to support individuals that have been exposed to stressful life events in their personal and professional lives.

Her journey started by learning Reiki (energy medicine) from the Sisters of St. Joseph and continues to unfold with the focus on the body, breath, movement and sound to decrease stress and improve overall wellbeing. She believes in meeting individuals “where they are at, in this moment in time”. Through collaboration, compassion, and support she empowers the individual to build awareness of their body, mind, and soul through all their layers of experience.

As a part of Veronica’s mission to bring yoga into the community she has received 500 RYT Integrative Yoga training, IAYT-Q Yoga Therapeutics in Healthcare training, and Mental Health Certificate with YogaX at Stanford Psychiatry. She also trained in Kundalini yoga, a practice that utilizes movement, breath, and mantra to bring balance to the body’s system. In addition to Veronica’s extensive Yoga training, she is a Board-Certified Nurse, Health and Wellness Coach, Therapeutic Breathwork Practitioner, Compassionate Bereavement Care Provider, and Reiki Master.

Yue Shen, Yoga Teacher

RYT 500

Yue is a 500-hour certified yoga teacher who began her yoga journey in 2014. With a background in fashion design, she has navigated the creative yet fast-paced, artistic but high-pressure world of the fashion industry. Yoga has been her anchor, nurturing her body and well-being throughout these years.

Before earning her master’s degree in Fashion Design, Yue studied Teaching Chinese as a Foreign Language. Her experience teaching children sparked a deep passion for education, which naturally flows into her yoga practice. Yoga has strengthened her from the inside out, helping her connect with her true self and grow into a more compassionate and kind-hearted person.

Yue finds as much joy in teaching yoga as she does in designing and styling. She is eager to share the wisdom she has gained from both her professional experiences and personal journey, helping others find balance and inner peace.
