Co-Host
Dominick Cole
500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher in yoga and yoga psychology. Acroyoga.org & Yin Yoga Certified
It’s hard to miss Dom’s deep passion for yoga and movement. For him, yoga and partner acrobatics have become his foundation for body awareness, presence, and transformation.
After completing a life-changing cross-country bicycle tour, Dom felt motivated to follow his dreams of teaching movement practices that inspire the gift of Self-Empowerment. He has since studied over 1,000 hours of yoga & acroyoga teacher training and shares his practice all over the world. He is a gratitude specialist and believes that we all have unique ways to receive greatness in life.
This will be his 5th retreat co-leading with Tarzan, and we’re so excited to be hosting another one together!
“This was genuinely one of the best weeks I’ve had! The way they created such a fun, warm, and inspiring space was incredible. I’d join again in a heartbeat! The retreat brought together my favorite things: plenty of play, movement, and community. Connecting with like-minded people from all around the world was such a gift. Learning new ways to move my body made the experience even more unforgettable. Thank you so much for sharing your magic with us!

“I joined Tarzan & Dom for their 2022 adventure.
In general, this whole group of people has been some of the most welcoming, amazing, and comfortable people I’ve ever been around and that it’s absolutely fantastic that in such a short period of time, I feel as connected, if not more to this group than to some of my closest friends! No matter what testimonial, no matter what reviews people put on a trip like this, it’s really hard to get that across, and it’s really hard to believe that as well for someone who’s never been on a trip like this before. To actually experience that and actually believing that in your own heart is just fabulous and so thank you, everyone!”
Testimonials from our past participants. Grateful you all had such a wonderful experience!!!

We reserve an entire property tucked nicely into the mountains. Without a neighbor in sight, all you see and feel is the peaceful, lush nature.
20 minutes from the coast, we will be taking everyone on a beach adventure to enjoy the sun and ocean during this ideal time of year to visit Portugal.
Private local chefs will be on-site, preparing 3 nourishing and abundant vegetarian dishes daily. Even the meat-eaters who came that had concerns, all left impressed and well nourished!

Video Highlights of past retreats with Tarzan
“What a truly magical time and experience my time at the retreat was. I am so blessed for all of the incredible AcroYoga I learned, the people I met, and the adventures that this experience created. I would highly recommend Tarzan and Sprouts retreat for anyone who is wanting to learn Acro, for they are both such wonderful and passionate teachers, as well as anyone also looking for an enriching and fun-filled experience, you will remember forever.”
“Their acro yoga retreat was a dream come true! Not only was the location and surroundings amazing but most importantly, we had the best teachers we could ever ask for. They made us feel safe and confident by taking their time to explain each perspective: the flyers, the bases, and the spotters. There was never a dull moment, each lunch break, dinner out, boat rides, they made everything fun and unforgettable. Both my fiancé and I are so grateful to have deepened our connection through acro yoga thanks to these beautiful humans.”
“I went to Bali for Tarzan and Sprout’s acro retreat and I gotta say, I was pretty nervous about going alone. That subsided literally as soon as I spoke to them on the phone. They made me feel so welcome, supported and loved. The knowledge they have doing acro is amazing and I doubt I’d have wanted to learn it from anyone else. The retreat was fantastic, gorgeous locations, really good teaching, so many laughs and an abundance of fun! I’d definitely recommend it to anyone and I’d definitely go again ❤”
