About this trip

7 Days of Retreat & Yoga

Leave the routine of your daily life and come home. Come home to what you already have and already know. Oftentimes, the obligations and routines of our daily life challenge our ability to connect with our inner wisdom.


The practices of yoga, meditation, journal writing, and discussion will, throughout the week, will help guide us back to the place within each one of us which is our home base.


Our intention is to provide an opportunity to find the tranquil space within via the practices of yoga, meditation and mindfulness. During our twice daily scheduled time together, we will weave these practices together, so that the physical practice of yoga may become the metaphor for the inner journey


This Costa Rica retreat naturally offers the silence, space and beauty to slow down, tune in, connect and journey home to the wisdom necessary to do your life’s work. Yoga is used as the organic metaphor for life experiences. Away from the busyness and routines, a new rhythm arises; A rhythm woven with movement, nurturing and deep connection. Challenge, feel and connect to the wisdom always available and already within you. 


Daily practices of mindfulness, meditation and journaling will be easily incorporated beyond the retreat environment. Take home with you the ability to connect amidst the storm of life’s challenges and beauty.

I had a truly amazing experience with Erin on her yoga teacher training course! Prior to going to Tamarindo, Erin and Matt hosted three zoom calls which was a great opportunity to meet everyone doing the training. Erin provided us with excellent handbooks and YouTube videos containing lots of detailed and relevant theory about the philosophy and history of yoga, anatomy and physiology of the human body, in the two months before going to Costa Rica, all of which contributed to the 200 hours. The zoom calls gave an opportunity to discuss what I’d learned, any problems or ask questions as well as a great opportunity to get to know each other and introduce us to mindful activities such as journaling. This supportive and thoughtful approach continued while I was with Erin in Tamarindo. Throughout the 12 days there was so much thought and attention to detail in how the training was presented and taught. Erin demonstrated a wide range of teaching skills that kept me motivated and inspired. Our days started with a wonderful yoga class taught by Erin (which varied in style and location and included being on the beach at sunrise and by her pool - just like her videos!) and was followed by a teaching session in the morning and afternoon with some evening yoga or meditation sessions as well. Breaks were evenly spaced throughout the day and across the 12 days - there was even some spare time to have a couple of surf lessons! The training took place in Erin and Matt’s house which added to Erin’s personal approach to the training. Erin was always very kind, supportive and thoughtful - even more than she is in her YouTube videos! She took time to give very individual and personal verbal and written feedback throughout the training which was very helpful. We met Rindo, Matt and some of her family which was lovely and added to the intimate feeling of the whole course. Throughout the course there was lots of opportunity to practice newly learned skills and techniques using lots of props and books for reference along with lots of time to discuss and consolidate all the theory that I’d learned. The space that Erin created in her home felt very safe and was perfect for sharing. Tamarindo is a great surf town with an amazing beach that was particularly beautiful to walk along at sunrise. I stayed in the Hotel Luna Llena which was a very convenient few minutes’ walk from Casa Colorado, and it was very clean, comfortable and friendly with a great pool and tasty breakfasts. I finished the training feeling inspired and ready to become a yoga teacher. I left Tamarindo having had a very special time with lots of very happy memories and a new group of friends. I am so grateful to Erin and Matt for all their hard work in creating such an amazing training and I am very excited about putting all my new skills and knowledge in practice!

The Nosara Yoga Retreat is the best thing I have ever done for myself. The booking process was simple and the option of paid transfer from the airport to Casas Kismet made solo travelling easy. Erin and Matt are an awesome team. If you love yoga no matter where you are in the journey and want to experience practising yoga with a phenomenal teacher in stunning surroundings I wholly recommend this retreat .
By Samantha P for Costa Rica Yoga Retreat - with Five Parks Yoga (April 2025) on Apr 29, 2025
Amazing experience! The group was small and interesting, with people on the same wavelength, allowing for true interactions. Deepening in Yoga, both with technical improvement and in the expansion of the philosophy of Yoga. Erin and Matt are wonderful and approachable, making the experience extremely personal. The place is wonderful, the nature is lush. Simple with just the right amount of sophistication. I loved everything. Thank you once again for the wonderful moments we spent together. Ioná

I had a fantastic time with an incredible group of people and a fabulous yoga instructor/husband duo. Erin is gentle with her approach with those who need it and at the same time accommodating who need more out of their practice. The location is heavenly, not to mention the food and the staff at Kasa Kismet....delicious food and fabulous service. If you ever want to experience yoga outside the studio or your home....this is it!!!!
