🌴✨ COSTA RICA✨🌴
wellness and adventure retreat
Nov 30 - Dec 6, 2026

We're heading back to the magical jungles of Nosara, Costa Rica!

Join me and a small group of your future new lifelong friends as we soak up everything Costa Rica has to offer

Six nights in a modern, luxury, eco-friendly, gated villa close to shops, restaurants, coffee shops, juggle trails, and the beach.

Daily Pilates and yoga classes in our onsite, open air yoga shala surrounded by the sites and sounds of local vegetation and wildlife.

Daily brunch and two special dinners prepared from scratch at the villa by our local, personal chef, Dilara.
Nosara is proximal to one of the world's five blue zones, where people live longer than any other region, so it is around one of the healthiest places in the world to live.

You'll have plenty of free time to explore, book a massage, go surfing, experience all the adventures Nosara is known for, or just chill out by your villa's private plunge pool.

I've planned a few group activities, like a group surf lesson, an optional community service activity where we plant trees with a local environmental nonprofit, dine at some of the best restaurants in town, take a reformer class at , watch sunsets at the beach, and so much more!

This retreat is truly a magical experience and one of my favorite places in the entire world. Registration is now open and all of my previous retreats at this location have sold out, so reserve your spot ASAP.
