As the founder of Cynthia Travels (formerly Ananda Vibes) Yoga Adventure Retreats & more experiential events held in paradise locations around world, she believes nothing compares to being in nature, and has taught half her classes outdoors across 20 cities, resorts, or islands. She sees yoga, traveling, adventures, & retreats as transformative vehicles to connect again to ourselves and step into the person we’ve always known we can be.
While born and raised in Chicago and traveling 70 countries across 7 continents, Cynthia began crafting yoga retreats in the way she likes to travel – through adventure, community, discovering new limits, and giving back. She’s driven by a desire to discover what magic happens when we live with wild abandon, give without expectation, and love without fear.
Cynthia has received 5 teacher certifications in Bali, Indonesia totaling over 600 hours, including:

A few of the features of my yoga classes and events:
BURO 24/7
Vinyasa Vibes to Chillstep Music
"Once I started to relax and follow the instructions without thinking about how much of a struggle it was—that's when the Zen kicked in. And it was surprisingly good, pulling myself away from all my worldly troubles for just that moment. The struggle was indeed worth it. I'd definitely do it again." ~ Jessica Fang, Culture Writer

Mama N Bubs Yoga
"We've worked with Cynthia on many occasions and felt that she would be great to manage the dynamics of the class as it gets challenging not just engaging the mothers but also the babies. You have to be flexible and be able to mentally pre-empt and gauge so many things as an instructor! Thank you Cynthia for being an outstanding instructor!" ~ Hui Mathews, Founder

Live Music Sunset Yoga Under the Dome
"This meant we could watch the sky’s colours change while pairing our movements and breath to the live music. Cynthia was great at creating a calm, welcoming atmosphere... It truly was a magical experience and I even text my Mum afterwards saying ‘it was one of the nicest things I’ve ever been to!'" ~ Rachel Chew, Fitness Blogger
