We're going back to the beach! Actually, we're going to be ON the beach!! Join us for a perfect winter escape and the gift to unwind, reenergize, and restore your energy...reconnecting to yourself and feeling at hOMe with an incredible community of yogis for a chill week of yoga, healing, surfing, culture and ceremony.
We are so excited to host our Third Annual Yoga, Reiki + Excursions Retreat at Costa Dulce Beach Bungalows and Retreat Center in Nicaragua: www.costadulcebeach.com
On a beautiful sandy beach, just 30 minutes south of San Juan Del Sur, you'll have a week off the beaten path, surrounded by natural beauty in the tropical dry forest, while living and breathing the beach.
At Costa Dolce, natural living meets rustic luxury where every bungalow offers an ocean view, looking out to our private pristine beach. Wake to sounds of waves crashing, birds chirping and monkeys howling, find tranquility and peacefulness with stunning ocean views and epic waves!
Come deepen your practice, while allowing space for a new perspective. Breathe, meditate, and receive Reiki from both Angela and Yuval while setting the groundwork for your own self healing. Explore the body in space, take time to flow mindfully and also slow down to "workshop" and investigate key actions required for a step-by-step approach to achieving a pose.
As always, excursions are included and you'll have time to surf, horseback ride, visit a local village to learn about the native culture, and take part in a beach fire ceremony. Lots of free time to lay in a hammock, soak in the sun, or indulge in a spa treatment. You will feel inspired to find your own pace and to give yourself exactly what you need at every moment, AND you'll be fully supported to do just that for yourself!
***As a special GIFT from Yuval and Angela, we are happy to give you a 1-hr spa treatment of your choice (massage or acupuncture) for free, to help you further relax into "beach life" and exhale. This is from us to you, as a token of appreciation, simply for signing up :)
All levels of practitioners are welcome; however, a reasonable level of physical fitness and experience with vinyasa yoga is assumed.
Be sure to scroll through the gorgeous photos at top of this page for further views of the beautiful beach, serene surroundings and unique accommodations.
