Surf Therapy
Central to our retreat is the concept of surf therapy, a powerful tool for personal growth and healing. Through the dynamic interplay of surfing, yoga, and therapeutic practices, you'll embark on a journey of self-discovery, tapping into your inner resilience and cultivating a sense of empowerment that transcends the waves.

Yoga
Complementing the thrill of surfing is the gentle practice of yoga, where each breath becomes a moment of mindfulness and each posture a step towards balance. Yoga sessions take place in open-air jungle, allowing you to synchronize body, mind, and spirit amidst the sounds of nature.

Dani is a Costa Rican Native who moved to Nosara later in life to be closer to the ocean and learn to surf.

She aspires to help women deepen their gratitude, explore their power within, and feel a sense of belonging in the lineup.
