Location
Uvita, Costa Rica
Uvita de Osa is a small town in southern Costa Rica, on a section of coastline known as the Costa Ballena of the Pacific Ocean. The Whale’s Tail has been described as one of the world’s most beautiful beaches. Uvita is a good place to see humpback whales in the wild, as there are groups which come from Northern California and Alaska during one time of the year and groups that come from the south and Antarctica during another time of the year. Many of the locals speak English as well as Spanish.
​
Described by many as one of the most biologically diverse areas in the world, southwestern Costa Rica has plenty of beautiful beaches and fantastic vistas. Of the many spectacular beaches found here, Playa Uvita is among the most stunning beaches on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast. It is a surfing hotspot.
​
You will find many restaurant options to have dinner out everyday. There is a local market once a week where you can find very healthy options, all locally produced. There are supermarkets where you can buy whatever you need too.
Accommodation
You will be staying at a beautiful Boutique Retreat. Â All public spaces are for you to enjoy. The lush grounds are quite large, with a 50 foot pool in the centre. There is plenty of space between the 4 accommodation options for privacy. You can help yourself to the fruits, vegetables, herbs and such that are growing in the gardens.
​
There is private secure parking if you want to rent your own car. There is an open air large dining area near the yoga shala, where we will enjoy our breakfast together each morning. The yoga shala is a beautiful open studio situated within the property and looking out on to the gardens, the pool and a cow pasture.

1 Group Soundbath
This session takes you on a journey of breath work and sound healing filled with sensation and surrender, beginning by centering the self through breathe work. As the mind calms and attention focuses, we transition into and surrender into the sound bath to a full array of sacred instruments. The alchemy Bowls will sing you into a space of deep self love and reflection while the Traditional Tibetan Bowls will ground and relax the body through their and deep sonic resonance. This therapy is really good for releasing past traumas and reconnecting with your higher self.

1 Ecstatic Dance Session
Ecstatic Dance is a free-form, non-structured dance space: In its most elemental definition it’s a free-form dance movement inspired and led by carefully crafted music with the intention of creating a healing journey. No dance experience or partner is necessary or needed. On one hand it’s a perfect outlet for those who think they “can’t dance” because they were taught that to “know” how to dance is to move in a certain way. On the other hand it is a luscious playground for experienced dancers alike craving for a free space where they can let loose with their peers. Ecstatic Dance is an environment without observers, judgements, posturing, attitudes, conversations, shoes, alcohol, fragrances or smoke. A space where everyone can feel spontaneously safe to try new things and push their edges. This is the dance you dance when nobody is watching. Allowing your body to move freely without judgement or concerns for the “grace” or beauty of the dance, just getting lost in the dance into a space of no-mind.
