The Founders

Jose Portillo, Co-Founder, Yoga Teacher & Trainer

500-HR E-RYT

With certifications in vinyasa, meditation, trauma informed yoga and yin/restorative training, Jose has a passion for creating experiences and spaces for people to meet themselves through movement and breath.

For Jose, the yoga practice has given him the tools to live a life that is authentic, intuitive and powerfully connected to his purpose and his greatest desire through his teachings of the practice is for others to find the same. By connecting to that which gives us life, this practice of honoring the breath and the body by way of yoga asanas (postures) and pranayama (breath practice), we can find ourselves present to all the amazing things available to us here and now. More importantly, this practice offers us the freedom and the empowerment to seek our physical, mental and spiritual growth.

The Team

Candice Quino, Yoga Teacher & Trainer

200-HR E-RYT

With over a decade of teaching experience, Candice brings a mischievous, unconventional spirit to the mat. Her classes are challenging and thoughtful—a blend of traditional vinyasa and a yoga-meets-martial-arts edge. Known for coloring outside of the lines, she creates a space where students are encouraged to trust their inherent creativity, embrace their inner authority, and celebrate their own uniqueness.

Candice’s teaching is rooted in the union of opposites—inviting honest exploration, even of the parts we tend to withhold. Music plays a central role in her classes, helping set a tone that’s both immersive and unexpected.

Forever a student herself, she holds multiple 200-hour certifications and continues to evolve her practice and teachings. Off the mat, you can find her enjoying raccoon memes, just about anything caffeinated, anime marathons, and expanding her beloved Sailor Moon collection.

Tina Hines, Breath Alchemist

Transformational Breathwork Guide

Tina spent decades as a high-level corporate consultant, decoding health plans, medical trends, and the hidden costs of disconnection. But no spreadsheet could explain why so many people were silently unraveling—and no benefit plan could touch the soul’s ache to feel again.

It wasn’t until a stormy Ayahuasca night in Costa Rica that the truth landed in her body: Healing isn’t something we chase. It’s something we breathe into.

Now the founder of Dragonfly Breathwork, Tina is a transformational breathwork guide devoted to helping others remember what it means to come home to themselves. Her sessions—equal parts science and sacred—gently repattern the nervous system, unravel buried grief, and awaken the voice beneath the noise.
