About this selection

Nosara is where yoga and surfing exist in perfect symbiosis — the Yoga Farm, Bodhi Tree, and dozens of retreat centres cluster around this pristine Pacific coast village. Nosara has a strong Ashtanga lineage. The Mysore-style morning practice, the self-paced approach, and the direct teacher-student relationship of this tradition suit the retreat culture here particularly well. January is one of Nosara's best months for retreat — Guanacaste's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in January tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
