RETREAT

ELEVATE YOUR YOGA PRACTICE

Join master Ashtanga teachers Darby and Joanne for a weeklong immersion in yoga. Through daily Mysore classes, workshops, adjustments, meditation, and discussions, they create an enriching experience that touches students at every level.

Drawing from decades of global teaching - most recently leading workshops across Korea and China - they share insights that blend tradition with innovation. Darby's unique gift lies in his ability to break down movement, from breath fundamentals to floating handstands, with remarkable clarity and directness. Together with Joanne, they create a supportive space where each student discovers new depths in their practice.

Their warmth and wisdom help unlock both subtle refinements and creative solutions in every pose, making profound aspects of practice accessible to all.

Nosara

Playa Guiones in Nosara sits where jungle meets ocean. Protected by a nature reserve, the beach offers pristine views unspoiled by development. Known for some of the world's most consistent waves, it's perfect for both beginner and experienced surfers, while also offering exceptional swimming.

Winter days bring consistent 33-degree Celsius temperatures and stunning Pacific sunsets. This unique atmosphere has drawn yogis and surfers, backpackers and billionaires alike. Our retreat compound, one of the few with direct beach access, offers an extraordinary connection to this natural paradise. Watch howler monkeys swing through the trees, or wander nearby jungle paths.
