Owner & Instructor
SaiFon has been practicing yoga for 16 years and teaching for 6 years. With many trainings under her belt, SaiFon has studied Yoga from several of the world's masters including Adhil Pakhivala to John Friend, Baron Baptiste and much more.
SaiFon never wanted to be an instructor, it just fell into her lap as a gift.
She doesn't consider herself a teacher, but "A facilitator for people to have a sacred place to really find their true authentic self through breath and posture".
Her Yoga Hale studio, located in Kona on Hawaii's Big Island, has been open for almost 4 years. "Surfing is an ongoing learning experience as yoga is. There is no end because the end is always evolving." www.saifon.ca.
