Details

Wake up in a lush resort with vibrant energy. Breathe, stretch, and strengthen with daily practices. Transform through daily meditations. We'll explore different forms of yoga, including Hatha, Flow, Ashtanga, Yin, and Slowburn. You'll discover your own peace and purpose through breathwork, meditation, and wellness workshops. This retreat is all about renewal and rejuvenation. The retreat site -- one of the oldest yoga sanctuaries in Costa Rica -- has an incredible energy that you can't help but absorb. A typical day has you wake up to a 6am energizing practice, breakfast, and then an excursion in nature. We'll return for lunch, an afternoon workshop and practice and dinner. In between all this, enjoy the grounds, pool, hot tub, spa visits, and downtime. You'll leave feeling like a new person -- refreshed, grounded, and nurtured.

Testimonials

info

We were able to relax and explore while in Costa Rica...but even more important, we grew from that amazing experience through yoga, family, and new found friends. We owe it all to you (Andrea B.) and are extremely grateful!

My yoga retreat with Andrea in Belize wasn’t about escaping life, it was about diving into it; fully, honestly, unapologetically. Andrea creates a space where you’re invited to reflect on who you’ve been, embrace who you are right now, and imagine who you’re ready to become. We all came from different places, with different stories, but we all shared one thing: the desire to connect deeply with ourselves, with each other, and with the world around us. Through soulful meditations, cultural adventures, laughter-filled conversations, and some truly wild excursions, we left lighter, clearer, and more alive! This isn’t a retreat you just attend. It’s one you feel - in your muscles, your being, and your true self. If you’re craving more than just yoga, and you want purpose, peace, and a kick of adrenaline, this retreat delivers it all!
