WHY THE BLUE ZONE?
The Nicoya Peninsula offers more than breathtaking beauty —
it’s home to some of the world’s most long-lived, purpose-driven people. Blue Zone strategies naturally align with yoga: community, movement, nourishment, spirituality, and rest. This retreat integrates those timeless principles to help you build lasting tools for mental clarity, joy, and resilience — long after the retreat ends.
Reconnect. Recharge. Rise.
Come as you are. No pressure. No pretzel poses required. Just movement, mindfulness, and the magic of showing up for yourself — one breath at a time.
This isn’t just another yoga retreat.
It’s a community.
A breath of fresh air.
A soulful reset.
