I first visited Nosara 12 years ago. I knew I had found my 'happy place'. Since then, I've returned numerous times, leading retreats, and trips with friends and family, and each experience has renewed my love for the culture, country and people.
With over 25 years as a yoga teacher and trainer, my deep desire is to create immersive experiences that allow women to connect to what truly matters in their life.
The Nosara area has it all. Beautiful beach sunsets, a thriving yoga community, howler monkeys everywhere, the most relaxed vibe you'll ever experience, and did I mention the FOOD? 😋
Our retreat is surrounded by mature jungle and is a short walk from the world-class surfing beaches of Playa Pelada. This is truly the ideal spot to renew, relax and reconnect.
Get ready to shine, from inside and out. Create an energized, more powerful, more amazing YOU.
