I had an incredible experience attending Suzanne’s yoga retreat in Costa Rica! She has such a gentle and warm approach and I enjoyed the daily yoga classes. Blue Osa was a gorgeous place to have the retreat and the staff were friendly and accommodating and shared their knowledge of the local flaura and fauna with us. I attended some of the local hikes and the sloth tour, which I also thoroughly enjoyed. Swimming in the ocean was so relaxing and I’d recommend swimming at high tide. It was also great getting to know the group and sharing the experience with fellow yogis. I’d absolutely go on another retreat with Suzanne in the future a would recommend to any who could use a reset and renewal trip!
I really enjoyed Yoga Glow Costa Rica Retreat. The Blue Osa service was excellent and Suzanne Morgan's yoga classes were great. I really liked the outdoor adventures and spa services during our free time. I highly recommend this retreat and will come back again.
For a yoga retreat, it did not include enough yoga. I completely expected at least two sessions per day if not more. There was one session per day for five out of the 7 days. There was another session added after someone requested it. Then another person at the retreat offered a yoga session as well. The food at the retreat was healthy and nicely presented. But often it was cold. It made no sense as to why it would be cold when the kitchen was right next to the servery and the times for eating were set. Those are two areas that could use improvement.

Hi, Ann-Marie.
Thanks for coming to my retreat. I just want to clarify some things. I actually taught 6 yoga classes at the retreat (actually 7 including the one I offered on Saturday morning), 3+ separate morning meditation sessions, plus a separate Ayurveda training. A couple of my participants wanted to have a taste of Yogi Aaron's teaching method, so I asked Alex to teach a special yoga class on Wednesday. Furthermore, at the beginning of the retreat, I said that I was willing to add more classes if people were interested, even some private work upon request, but you never mentioned that you were interested in more. I would have happily added more in.
I will pass your comment about the food onto Blue Osa.
Namaste,
Suzanne
Suzanne's retreats are always wonderful! River Mountain was a beautiful place with unique accommodations (I stayed in a yurt and practiced yoga in a beautifully restored barn), yummy food, interesting people to meet, etc. However, for me the most important aspect of any yoga retreat is the yoga -- and Suzanne's classes are so lovely. She meets you where you are and is excellent at accommodating each student's needs. After her class my body and spirit feel refreshed! Thank you, Suzanne for a truly special weekend.
