Awaken all of your senses as you deepen your yoga practice and explore Costa Rica’s most lush and diverse ecosystems. Discover the Chirripó Mountains, home to the highest peak in the country. Then cruise the lush shoreline of the warm Pacific Ocean on an exciting whale & dolphin boat tour. Enjoy the tropical virgin beaches of the Ballena National Park home to the famous whale's tale. Make your own delicious organic chocolate. Visit the secret gardens full of bright flowers and exotic wildlife. Hike verdant trails to breathtaking vistas. These are but a few things that you will experience on this unique yoga adventure! 

Iyengar Yoga teacher Carolyn Christie of the Iyengar Yoga Association of Greater New York leads this exciting Costa Rica retreat in partnership with Rainforest Reef Escape. We have put together the perfect adventure package that blends both yoga and exploration, allowing you to fully savour the many exotic flavours of Costa Rica!
RIO CHIRRIPÓ LODGE & RETREAT

Head to the heart of the Talamanca Mountain Range in the south central portion of Costa Rica. It is here, nestled between wooded hills and the fast flowing Chirripó River that you will find Rio Chirripó Lodge, a refuge from the pressures of a busy world, a place of refreshment for mind and body. Throughout its grounds the vivid hues of abundant tropical flowers and shrubs beguile the eye and enchant the spirit. Indulge in healthy, inspiring dishes, incorporating a wide selection of locally sourced fresh organic ingredients, providing a culinary experience that will nourish, satisfy and make your Costa Rican yoga escape as perfect as nature intended. 

YOUR IYENGAR YOGA PRACTICE 

Your yoga practice will deepen in this natural environment where you will have plenty of time to explore the asanas and pranayama. The invigorating morning session will both strengthen as well as create mobility. Each morning Carolyn will teach a sequence that will have a specific focus, whether that be standing poses, seated poses, forward bends, twists, or backbends. The Iyengar Yoga method is an excellent teaching method so come ready to learn! In the evening, the yoga practice will be restorative with inversions, supine poses and pranayama.
