I just got back from the Egypt SYB trip, and it was absolutely incredible! I couldn't have asked for a better way to explore Egypt. SYB truly outdid themselves with every detail, from visiting iconic temples to riding ATVs, cruising the Red Sea on a massive yacht, kitesurfing, and diving in some of the world's most famous spots. Everything was planned and executed flawlessly, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. I give SYB a 10/10. Highly recommend. read more

The Nicaragua Surf Yoga Beer trip was my second adventure with the company and I cannot recommend them enough! This tripe was the perfect mix of fun, movement, and connection. Jillian and Sarah made the experience unforgettable, her leadership was caring and inclusive to everyone in the group. From getting to know everyone on land and on the yoga deck to sharing beers at sunset and surfing till the sunset. I can't recommend this trip enough, especially with Jillian and Sarah! read more

I have been on 2 SYB trips and I highly recommend traveling with them! I have loved the planned itineraries - from the workouts to the yoga sessions, along with some time to relax and decompress. It is amazing getting to meet people from all around the globe and I couldn't recommend SYB trips more!! If you're a solo traveler looking for a unique experience - this is for you. read more

I'm really happy I booked a solo trip with SYB to Croatia! I loved the daily workouts/yoga before heading off to local adventures like hiking, biking, and kayaking. Mantas and Steph fostered a culture of fun while pushing your limits for personal growth with a group of strangers that quickly become friends from all over the world. I would definitely recommend. read more

One of the most satisfying best weeks of my life. Working out hard partying hard with absolutely amazing humans. I can't wait to join another one. read more

11/10 experience. The leaders deeply care and they work hard to scout ahead of time and make sure that the trip is planned and prepped so there's no stress once you're there. I just visited Iceland with 40 strangers and after 5 days, I returned with lifelong friends and cannot WAIT to book my next trip with the SYB team. Grateful beyond words for this squad, cannot recommend SYB enough read more

Croatia was my first SYB trip, and I'm so glad I booked it. If you're looking to make new friends, enjoy some great workouts, and explore a country with thrilling excursions, this is the perfect choice! Mantas and Steph really push you to step out of your comfort zone, and don't think, just do!! read more

When I first heard about Surf Yoga Beer, I honestly thought it sounded too good to be true - an exotic trip with 30 like-minded individuals who are (mostly) traveling solo for yoga, steamy workouts, and a good time. Seems like this can't actually be the real deal, right? WRONG. I was so wrong. And I never admit I'm wrong, so that's saying something, right? If you're thinking about booking your trip with Surf Yoga Beer, DO IT. I'm the girl who's scared of everything, but I nervously booked a trip to Sayulita for Surf Yoga Boxing and it was worth overcoming every fear I had. Traveling solo? So is almost everyone else. Scared you won't be able to handle the workouts? They have something for every level AND expert trainers to guide you. Feel weird about having a random roommate? They'll match you up with someone based on your pre-trip form. And if you're a control freak like me, let go. The leaders of this trip will plan everything from meals to excursions to shuttle buses to AND from the airport. Katie B. and Adam were amazing coordinators. Sarah and Rad stole my heart with their amazing workouts and encouragement. Ryan documented the entire trip with professional photos and videos so we could remember these moments forever. I couldn't have asked for a better team to walk me through my first *kinda* solo trip. They'll pick the dopest locations, the sexiest workouts, and throw the best parties. And if you're worried about what you'll be eating, Eddie from Salud NYC cooked up most of our meals - vegan, vegetarian, whatever you want or need. You name it, Eddie will whip it up for you and execute every dish AND drink to perfection. He's also super friendly and will ensure you have the absolute best time. Sweet and talented, for sure. The people you meet on this trip? They'll become some of your best friends. You'll find yourself bonded to these other people by the end of this trip. You'll make friends from all over the country and all over the world. Everyone who goes on these trips truly wants to be there and enjoy every moment. If you're looking to meet people with great, positive energy, you NEED to book a trip with SYB. The people on my trip ranged from early 20s to early 40s, but our ages and where we were in life didn't matter at all. All that mattered was how we worked as a team, played as a team, and maybe even shed some happy tears, again, as a team. And we partied as a team, too. Can't forget the dance parties. Do yourself a favor and book your SYB trip, whether it's to Mexico, Italy, Morocco, Belize, or one of their other drool-worthy locations. It will change you in the best possible ways. $ well spent for a heart and body that is content. read more

Morocco was already my third SYB trip and it was definitely as amazing as the other two and with the same mantras "you're surrounded by love" and "don't think just do". Although the group was quite big (c. 50 people) I really had the feeling that I knew almost everyone at the end of the trip. SYB is able to create a safe space from day 1, from which deeper connections are built not only with the people around you, but also with yourself. It's the combination of FUN, EXERCISE and MINDFULNESS that makes these SYB trips for me like no other trips I've been on. In Morocco we had Africa burn-vibes desert disco (with a cool down in the swimming pool), camel ride, ATV, hot air balloon, 24 hours in Marrakech, champagne showers on the beach, morning runs through Taghazout, glamping in the desert, desert yoga etc. However, what always makes these trips so special is not so much all the fun activities, it's the beautiful souls that decide to step outside their comfort zone and open themselves up to connect with new people around the world. The all stars, the desert queens, the don't think just do rockstars. I feel blessed to be part of this amazing community and I can't wait for my next SYB adventure! read more

Recently went on the Croatia trip and I can't say enough good things about the trip. Although the reviews below are a few years older now, the same themes ring true in 2022. If you want an inclusive environment with people that value balancing a life of fitness and fun, then this is the trip for you. See you on the next trip! read more

I had such a positive experience with Surf Yoga Beer (SYB) this summer and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking an exhilarating travel experience. It is an incredible opportunity to get out of your comfort zone and travel with a group of people who also value fitness and wellness. Adventure, endorphins, and friends await all around the world! The trip leaders and executive team are so committed to making the environment welcoming and supportive, regardless of your fitness level. Keep an open mind and welcome the new, it's SO worth it. read more

I went on an adventure with surf yoga beer last month to Palawan, Philippines. I had signed up because I needed to reset and escape the hustle in New York that had me running and chasing the end of a rat race that was not for me. Diving into a journey half way across the world- Not knowing what I was getting myself into or who with is an experience you only get from solo travel. But here's the catch. I have travelled alone in the past and have had great experiences- lonely planet and trip advisor help you make sure you won't drown in the deep end. And your instinct to visit that place brings you to meet fellow jet setters / voyagers when you're there. The best part of this trip was all I had to do was sign up. I picked the destination and activities that suited my desires on SurfYogaBeer.com and I was done. Didn't need to research where I was going the SYB leaders take care of that and the company groups like-minded people to travel with or just keep you company while you take your trip. I recommend surfing their website for anyone who needs to reset or an escape from their daily world. It was an experience of a lifetime to one of the most beautiful places I've visited, loaded with the most delicious farm to table meals and unlimited beers. For 8 days I was speechless and in a blissful dream everyday- if you're spending time reading this ... surf on SurfYogaBeer.com and book your adventure! read more

Unbelizable time in Belize. I can't say enough great things about this fitness travel crew. Genuine fitness teachers with some kick butt playlists. We had the entire resort to our group with daily homemade meals and fresh squeezed juices! The staff was incredibly kind and super accommodating to food allergies and preferences. As a picky eater this was one of my concerns traveling but this was NOT even an issue. One of the best parts was being surrounded by like minded people who were initially strangers and now my friends:) Looking forward to my next trip with SYB! read more

2017 was by far my best year yet, and I have SYB to thank for a big part of that. They provide such an amazing outlet for self-discovery, new adventures, fitness, taking chances, and everything in between. My trip to Amalfi Coast was life-changing and I will never EVER forget the memories that our group shared. Stop thinking about it and book your trip with SYB NOW. It's an experience of a lifetime that you will forget. My best advice is to travel solo - believe me, you wont regret it. read more

I learned to surf in Nicaragua, participated in the summer run club runs, and have gone to bootycamps. I also attended the rosé olympics in Montauk and went to Cuba with Surf Yoga Beer. On top of all that I just booked my snowboarding trip to Colorado, so it's safe to say I'm pretty much obsessed with this company. I hate to even call it a company because it is sooo much more than that. They curate these amazing fitness adventures and events, but they also create an energy that is unmatched. The people that are drawn to SYB trips and events are some of the most interesting and genuine people I have traveled with. There is focus on a healthy balanced lifestyle vs your typical yoga or fitness retreat, which helps bring like minded, fun and fitness loving individuals out to all of the events. I still talk to people from every event or adventure I have attended. The leaders and instructors have all been passionate and friendly. They really care about what they are doing and want you to be having a good time. For the out of town adventures, as soon as your flight is booked you don't have to worry about a thing. They take care of everything from transportation to wake up calls, meals/alcohol and all the fun extra activities. It's so nice not having to plan every step of the trip and just knowing it's taken care of! There's always something to be doing, or you can choose to chill out and not participate in as much as you want. read more

This is my my second review, after my second Surf Yoga Beer trip within a 9 month span. Some might say that's a little impulsive, but as leader Mantas Zvina would advise, "don't think, just do.." :) I just returned from the SYB trip to Palawan (Philippine Islands), and there are few words that can describe my experience. In terms of staff, Mantas as a leader came along for the ride to not only ensure the trip runs smoothly, but to make sure everyone feels comfortable and at ease together. He starts every morning with a kick ass workout on the beach (get ready to get down and dirty in the sand, and not give a sh*t what you look like). We had an awesome tour group, Tao Group, for the first 5 days of the trip. These guys brought so much of the energy and culture alive for us; I spent most of my days just laughing! They have fresh breakfast, lunch, and dinner prepared daily, including one farm to table meal, it doesn't get much better than that. We ate each meal as a group, which brought everyone closer together. We spent most of our days traveling by boat to and from secluded islands. If you ever saw "The Beach" - this is your time to live it. If you get boat sick I definitely recommend bringing something with you, as you will be spending a lot of time on the boat! Consider this your main "home." Every afternoon we arrived to a new island, where we would have to physically swim/snorkel from the boat to our new home for the night. In the late afternoons we had a variety of optional activities planned for us, always a great way to wind down the day (i.e yoga, massages, group break out sessions). Each night, we would sleep in an outdoor hut with only a mosquito net above us. In summary: if you are open to stepping out of your comfort zone, not showering for a few days, and unplugging from the world - this is the trip for you. This trip really gave me the chance to step into a place of discomfort, and open myself up to new possibilities and experiences. I came on the trip knowing 2 people (I went on my first SYB trip alone - and highly encourage it) but I left with 16 new best friends. read more

Life Changing Trip!!! I recently attended my first SYB trip to Honduras. It was truly an ahhhmaazing adventure filled with fun work out sessions, great food, awesome people, tons of laughs, and memories that will last a lifetime! When I first signed up for this trip I was extremely nervous. I thought it was either going to be like college spring break to Cancun OR a group of close friends that already knew each other and I was going to feel out of place. This was anything, but what I thought! People: The leaders Kingsley and Mantas are AWESOME! Everyone who attended the trip genuinely had a positive attitude. By the end of the trip it felt like a family. I couldn't believe how close I became with several of the people in just a few short days. It truly is a bonding experience like nothing else I have been through. Workouts: They were intense at times, but FUN! I personally love competitive activities, so I enjoyed the beach competition events the most. Overall, there was a nice balance between the yoga and the bootcamps. None of the activities are mandatory, so you can pick and choose what you would like to participate in. I personally tried to attend all activities for fear of missing out on any of the fun!! Take Away: I personally found the trip to be life changing for me. After returning, I felt as if I was sleeping through my life for the past few years and the trip really jump started me again. It's a great way to meet new and interesting people and also push yourself outside of your comfort zone. I highly recommend booking a trip!! Trust me you won't regret it, just do it!!! :-) read more

After almost a year of being a part of SYB, it seems only fitting to finally share my review. SurfYogaBeer began as a grassroots movement envisioned by two dear friends. What started as fitness adventure retreats quickly turned into weekly meet ups and local hangouts. As a part of the San Diego chapter, I can say what makes this great is the fact that though most of us started off as strangers, we all quickly became friends. SYB also has a variety of events catered to every individual. I personally have been unable to make it to the trips but I do really enjoy the weekly "RunYogaBeer" events. If you're looking to be surrounded by friendly, like-minded people both locally and internationally, I highly recommend you check these guys out. read more

I can't say enough great things about my SYB trip to Iceland! The itinerary was amazing, the leaders were inspirational, the home-cooked meals were delicious and our photographer was unstoppable! I went on the trip knowing 1 person and left with 29 great friends. I highly recommend a SYB trip! -Tina D read more

Life changing. The only way I can describe this incredible adventure. Pushed outside of my comfort zone - I made new friends, created incredible memories and most of all challenged myself in new ways. I went on SYB #2 - Costa Rica and still reminisce how much fun it was! The best part of the trip wasn't the great tan I came home with or the amazing pictures I took - it was the community I was part of. One that continues to celebrate birthdays, milestones and the average Friday night sweat session almost two year later since we met. SIGN UP NOW. read more

I could not wait to review SYB after having such an amazing trip to San Juan Del Sur in Nicaragua: The Staff: While I imagine that it couldn't be easy to organize 22 varying personalities, age ranges, and preferences on a trip in a foreign country - the group that was staffing this trip made it seem effortless. Each leader was so positive and personable that it allowed all of the participants to connect with them immediately and often. The Food: All meals were prepared fresh, and I found myself constantly looking forward to indulging in the next one. I recommend doubling up on the pulled pork tacos if you are lucky enough to have Eddie prepare those during your trip. The Workouts: Each of the workouts were so rewarding that I think I still have an endorphin buzz - even though the last workout was 3 days ago. Bottom Line: I had such a positive experience throughout this trip -- from cultivating new relationships with the staff and participants while exploring a new country, to being well fed and physically active for 4 days-- my experience with SYB was truly wonderful. I would confidently recommend this organization to anyone interested in meeting new people and exploring new places. read more

I recently participated in the SYB Iceland Trail Running trip. An avid runner and member of the SYB Run Club in NYC, I was super excited to be a part of this running adventure. It was one of the BEST experiences of my life - I was pushed both physically and mentally and made amazing friends along the way. The accommodations were tight, but SYB designed it that way to foster community and engagement among the travelers. The group hired a professional photographer to capture our best moments and a chef to prepare the tastiest cuisine for us to enjoy post long days of running and hiking. The sites were incredible, but I have to say the best part of SYB's trip to Iceland were the incredible people and friends I made. Thank you SYB. Looking forward to the next one! :) -Jeannine (aka: Baggy Tucker!) read more

I just returned from the Sayulita, Mexico trip and could not be happier. A little background: I was referred by my sister who went on the Nicaragua trip with her boyfriend and she said it was amazing. I was hesitant at first since I never travel alone and knew no one going on the trip. Long story short, I said f it and booked. The trip from start to finish was awesome. Everything was nicely organized and didn't feel rushed or pressured. We would have our morning workouts and Mantas (a SYB leader) would give us the layout for the rest of the day. The days were structured in such a way that you never felt like you were on a schedule. All of the workouts were intense, fun, and engaging. It felt great to sweat out all of the toxins from the previous day. Detox and retox, rinse & repeat. The town of Sayulita was beautiful and the people/culture/food were amazing. Take a look at the review by 'Natedog L.' for more on that. In short, I have no regrets or anything negative to say about the trip or SYB. IT WAS AMAZING and I plan to do another one soon. The leaders and everyone involved in the SYB operation really go out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable. You're never pressured to participate in anything you don't want to. It's just a very chill and fulfilling experience at the end of the day. If you're on the fence about doing it, don't be. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. And this is coming from someone who generally needs to know all details before committing to something. As they say in SYB, "don't think, just do!" read more

I'll admit, I'm sold. I think what made me so attracted to SYB in the first place is that it's soooo NOT New York. In fact, that's just one of the many reasons why I love the SYB peeps. They always share those sunny west coast vibes even on the coldest of NYC nights. Example: Santa Run Try a weekly BootYcamp class, Surf Day, or weekend away and I dare you not to come back with a better outlook on life, tighter abs, and some new friends!! read more

Went to Playa Maderas, Nicaragua over NYE 2018. It was a blast! Such an amazing combo of fitness, partying, eating, dancing, and relaxing. The group was 20s-30s, singles and couples. Everyone shared a YES attitude - the people who actually make plans, show up, and dominate everything they do. Boot camp mornings were scary for me at first, but I was shocked by how fun they were - more like beach Olympics than boot camp. The surfing at Maderas is epic, and the yoga was an awesome way to wind down before some inevitable post-dinner magical surprise. I feel like part of an authentic community after this trip and I can't say enough great things about Mantas, Eddie, and the rest of the SYB team. Thank you!!!! read more

What an unbelievable experience and way more than the average vacation in all aspects. The workouts were exceptional not just in intensity level but also the varied activities and attention to boxing form (boxing trainers Jaws and Jerimiah were beyond!) our yoga instructor Eva from Finland was beautiful inside and out which created a reason for all of us to struggle through the mountainous workouts knowing we were going to receive a sunset yoga session as a gift and return the love to our bodies for all of the hard work we put them through. The food !!!!! I can't say enough about Eddies daily breakfasts, beachside long-table sunset into dusk candle lit dinners and always a spread of fresh local fruits and snacks to keep our nutrition on point and maintain a high energy level. At night there was also an unbelievable assortment of libations you could dream of. He was also happy to make frozen margaritas, sangrias, and bloody Maria's upon request. The local delicacies in town off the hook from street side handmade tortillas loaded with local meats and fresh salsas. Local seafood tacos and ceviches. Beach ocean front massages. Bathtub warm ocean waters. The icing on the cake was our crew, unstoppable , determined , mountain climbing, smiling through grueling workouts, laughing through it all. I can't thank you enough. I feel like I owe you something. read more

I really hate to be negative, but it's important for people to know what they're signing up for. This is not a business. This is a group of kids that find a house on Airbnb and then charge you to stay in uncomfortable beds in homes they've never seen before. My girlfriend convinced me to sign up, thinking we'd have a great week of fitness, healthy food and relaxation. It was none of those things. The food was horrible and there was never enough to go around. It was never ready on time, and made by a bunch of "helpers". There was no actual chef. I feel healthier at home. In fact, my girlfriend complained about feeling like she GAINED WEIGHT. Which is a crazy concept on a so called "health & fitness retreat" The fitness was a joke. The trainer barely knew anything other than basic group fitness moves that anyone could download on youtube. I asked him a few questions about anatomy and he barely got through an answer. Come to find out, this guy is an accountant and not even certified! Which is irresponsible and dangerous. Theres no denying that the scenery was beautiful, but the house was not ideal, some rooms were packed with people like we were in an episode of MTVs Real World. Girls crying, people hooking up, the actual founders acting like this was their own personal party, getting drunk and acting like frat guys. I was blown away. One of the leaders hooked up with TWO of the guests while we were there. If beer pong, bad fitness and feeling like sh*t when you return home from vacation is your thing, youll love this. Otherwise, save yourself the headache. read more

I am proud to say that I have been a member of Surf Yoga Beer San Diego since day 1!! I participate in many of the activities including the amazing Thursday evening 5 mile runs at Sunset Cliffs. This group has changed my lifestyle for the better, motivated and encouraged me to continue my fitness journey and has introduced me to some of the most incredible people I have ever met!! I have made many genuine friends through surf yoga beer.. a few of them traveled to las vegas with me last year to complete the Rock and Roll half marathon! That is something I never would have done without this group! Another one of my favorite things about this group is that the people who attend are not just a bunch of health nuts trying to push an insane, unattainable lifestyle... they are normal people who care about health and fitness but who ALSO party and love to have fun (hence the BEER!) Detox to retox people!!!! Ashley, the main yoga instructor is incredible too!! My roommate had never tried yoga in her life and Ashley made her feel so comfortable trying something new. Overall, surfyogabeer is an amazing company/ group to be part of and they have really made me feel like I have a secondary family here in San Diego. So grateful to these beautiful people in my life! Thank you!!! Go SYB!!!!!! read more

Surfyogabeer has literally changed my life for the better. The weekly fitness and social gatherings are something I look forward to every week and always lift myself and the other members up to super positive vibes. Since starting to go to events I have watched a tribe of people form here in San Diego that is supportive, positive, and an all around blast to be around. I've gotten in much better shape and made friendships that I know will last for many years to come. Our last trip to Mexico was well organized, super fun, and left me with a skip in my step for the following weeks... I'm so glad I found this group... Here is a blog article about this blossoming group that recently went viral on Facebook: http://thelala.com/surfyogabeer-travel-fitness-company-need-know/ Super proud to be a part of this.

My journey with SYB all started with a fitness trip to Hawaii that I joined on a last minute notice back in 2015. I'm thankful that I did, because it turned out to be a trip of a lifetime! At first I was hesitant on spending a week with 15 strangers and waking up at 6am for bootcamps, but they always made waking up fun, & those 15 "strangers" ended up becoming friends- some even ended up becoming my best friends! I got back into my groove of working out and continued it back to San Diego by joining the local boot camps, yoga, and runs on the beach. Even the get togethers to just BBQ and socialize are a great way to meet more people who have the same interests and lifestyle. I'm not a good planner, so these SYB trips make it easy for me... I know the trips are always going to filled with great memories and awesome people! I can't wait to see what is next!! read more

I had an incredible experience travelling with SYB to Nicaragua for NYE 2018. Every detail of the trip was perfectly coordinated from airport pick up to workouts to meals and the location was beautiful. SYB brings together positive-thinking people for action-packed fun and adventure. Mantas is a high-energy leader who encourages everyone to work hard and play hard and Eddie is an incredibly talented chef who serves up delicious, feel good food every day. I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to participate in a SYB adventure where I made deep connections with 22 new friends and I highly recommend participating in any SYB activity in or out of NYC. read more

I just got back from my first SYB adventure in Nicaragua. I'm not sure how to fully describe how incredible it was in a simple yelp review, but I can say that it was the best experience of my life... by far. I learned to surf for the first time, did group yoga during breath-taking sunsets, had fun and competitive workouts with the group on the beach, ate unbelievable food prepared by Eddie which was top notch, and just experienced all around fun every day and every night. But most importantly, I went with one friend, and we came back with 20 new best friends. It's the real deal and I can't wait for my next trip with SYB. Thank you to Mantas, and the whole SYB staff for affording me the opportunity to experience something so beautiful, so pure, and so enlightening. Happy New Year! read more

I was first introduced to SurfYogaBeer San Diego was when I decided to check out RunYogaBeer one Thursday evening. To this day, that was one of the best decisions I've ever made for my personal happiness and well-being. I was a little nervous at first, considering I didn't know anyone in the group, I was terribly out of shape, and I've never done yoga before. I was only able to make it to yoga my first time, but as soon as I walked up to Nathan's place after a long and stressful week at work and seeing two beautiful palm trees line the courtyard, hearing the waves crashing nearby, a lit fireplace with candles all around, and so many beaming smiles...I knew right away I was definitely going to come back for more. Everyone in the group, both veterans of SYB and new folks, made me feel at home and welcome right away. It was as if I knew the tribe for years and I immediately felt like I was a part of the family. During yoga, I could feel all of my tension and stress flush away and relaxation and serenity quickly flowed in. My body felt so incredible after an hour and I didn't want the session to end. We then went to Wonderland and I got a chance to meet Nathan and the rest of the tribe. It was such an amazing experience and I was already yearning for more. I was officially addicted to SYB. Since my first RunYogaBeer, I have been doing my best to attend every Thursdays as a part of my weekly routine. It's so easy for me to get caught up with the daily grind and stress from work and life, but every time I go out to meet with the tribe, I feel a sense of relief and a high like no other. Thursdays are my favorite days of the week and the crew is always encouraging me to do my best and push my limits each and every week. Before SYB, I hated the thought of exercising and leading a healthy lifestyle, but the community has transformed me to be the best version of myself. I've gotten so much healthier and more active, but the best part is I have a forever family that will always be there for me no matter what. Aside from the weekly RunYogaBeer, I've attended two SYB adventures so far, one to Baja and another to Big Bear and both trips were so awesome and unbelievably fun. On both trips, there were yoga sessions, bootcamps, and loads of healthy foods to munch on at all times. I was able to meet people from all different walks of life and share experiences with so many amazing adrenaline junkies like me. I am counting down the days until I can go on my next SYB adventure! Nathan and his crew put in so much dedication, hard work and their whole hearts into SYB. It's their precious baby and I am so lucky to be a part of the journey. In the short amount of time, SYB has gone from a passion idea to a lifestyle movement that has touched so many people. I just signed up for the 10-week summer RunYoga Club for only $45!!! That's $4.50 a class...I mean seriously, does it get any better than that? Honestly though, there is no price tag you can put on being a part of a life-changing community of positive minds...real people who support you and are there for you, and push you to be the best you. You don't know how many times SYB has pulled me out of a crazy life funk in the short period I've known the tribe. I have made best friends that I will cherish for life and I truly thank SYB for that. If you haven't experienced SYB yet, PLEASE do yourself a favor and check it out. It'll change your life and you'll get hooked, I promise. Side note...I am a Yelp addict, but this is my first ever review...so that should say something. :) read more

I never write yelp reviews, but I wanted to take the time to write a review about an organization that I feel has profoundly affected my life in a positive way. My first experience with SYB was a retreat to Nosara, Costa Rica in November 2015 for one week. On this trip, I experienced new adventures that I never thought I would, and I met a group of people who have become life long friends. On our trip to Costa Rica, we did yoga daily with our wonderful Y7 instructor, we surfed, paddle boarded, hiked to a waterfall, along with many other excursions. The best part of the day was always returning back to our home where we would all discuss the highlights of our day, while enjoying delicious, fresh meals. Anyone who is looking to experience adventure with an incredible group of people, I highly recommend SYB. Since returning to NYC from my trip, I have attended local SYB events like the Run Club and more Yoga events. Attending the SYB retreat was one of the best decisions of my life; I can't wait to sign up for another adventure. read more
