Costa Rica Yoga Retreat 2018

10/01/2016

Exciting News & Current Schedule

Happy New Year! 🎉 I hope everyone is doing well and getting back into their normal routines after the holidays and the snow and ice storms that we had here in Portland this week. ❄️

I have some exciting news to announce. 💫 My wife, Nitai, is pregnant and we are expecting our first child in mid June. We are really excited to become parents. We feel like we are at a time in our lives when we are ready for the responsibilities and life changes coming our way, but our priorities have definitely shifted.

As soon as we found out(in October) we decided to cancel the retreat to Costa Rica. It was hard to do, but it would have been way to much traveling time for Nitai. And, it didn't feel right for me to go out of the country for a couple of weeks and leave her here by herself while she is pregnant. Fortunately, it was still early on and no one who had signed up had bought plane tickets yet. We hope to do the retreat to Costa Rica again in the coming years, but this year we are staying close to home. We are looking into doing a retreat to 🌺Hawaii🌴 next year, though😀

Thanks to all of those that had signed up or showed interest for being so understanding.

The theme for this year's retreat in Costa Rica on Jan. 18 - 24, 2016 is "Reconnecting With Our Natural Rhythms". A yoga retreat is the perfect opportunity to do that, because it gives us a chance to get away from our normal distractions, patterns, and routines and see things from a different perspective. Immersing yourself in the practice, in nature, and with the rhythm of the ocean setting the tempo is a chance to reinvent, recharge, and reset ourselves.

With so much going on during this transition from summer to autumn we have decided to extend the early bird discount until Oct. 15. If you can pay in full before then you can save $50 per person on our already great deal of $900 for a shared room with a friend or partner or $1200 for your own unit.

Here is a video I took on last year's retreat before one of my sunrise surf sessions...Enjoy...

We are booking the entire hotel, which boasts three pools and beautiful cabins and villas situated on a terraced hillside with breathtaking ocean views. There is the option to start each day with a morning meditation session, followed by a fluid mid-day class, ending the day with a grounding, restorative class. The yoga deck is positioned at the highest point of the hotel, surrounded by the astonishing nature of Costa Rica and overlooking the ocean. The yoga classes will be led by seasoned yoga teacher and traveler, Todd Wilson. All of the classes are optional, so that you may immerse at your own comfort level.
