Lodging
Tucked into the jungle-covered hills above Santa Teresa and just minutes from Playa Hermosa, our Costa Rica home for this training is a private sanctuary reserved entirely for our group. Bamboo architecture, an open-air jungle yoga shala, a 12-meter pool, two saunas and a cold plunge create the perfect environment to practice, study, rest and reset. Surrounded by howler monkeys, tropical birds and the sound of the Pacific, it's a space designed to slow you down and bring you back to yourself.
Private Shuttle
From the moment you land, we've got you covered. Group transportation will be waiting on arrival day to bring you from the airport to our retreat space in Santa Teresa, and back again at the end of training, making your journey seamless and stress-free.
3 Meals a Day
Nourishment is a key part of your experience with us. Each day you'll enjoy three freshly prepared meals crafted from local, seasonal ingredients designed to energize and restore your body. Our meals are vibrant, balanced, and inspired by regional flavors—whether it's tropical fruits, plant-based dishes, or nutrient-rich grains. We happily accommodate a wide range of dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and other special requests. Simply let us know your preferences or restrictions in advance, and our culinary team will ensure you're well taken care of—mindfully and deliciously.
Daily Yoga, Lectures and Workshops
Each day is rooted in holistic experience- expect powerful morning yoga practices in our open-air jungle shala, enriching workshops in yoga philosophy and anatomy, dedicated time for practice teaching, sequencing and alignment, all designed to awaken body, mind, and spirit.
