Why Costa Rica for Yoga Training?

Called by the energy of the Costa Rican mountains, the strength of the ocean, and each other, we invite you to evolve on your spiritual and yogic path. With astounding natural beauty, warm water, sunny shores, and incredible wildlife, Costa Rica is an extraordinary location for those called to the ancient sacred practices of yoga. With a commitment and a major initiative to decrease its ecological footprint, Costa Rica has become a leader in the “green” movement and is the first carbon-neutral developing country on Earth – with significant progress in lowering its overall CO2 emissions. Costa Rica has almost 5% of the world’s biodiversity. Much of the country is set aside with protected National Parks, wildlife refuges, and nature reserves.
