move. explore.
come alive.

Join us in Costa Rica for an unforgettable retreat designed to help you step away from routine and into something bigger—adventure, connection, deep rest, and the kind of reset you didn’t know you needed.

At Danyasa Eco-Retreat Center in Dominical—where the jungle meets the sea—we’re bringing the HEY experience beyond the studio into a private sanctuary built for movement, restoration, and meaningful connection.

Whether your adventure looks like waterfall hikes, trying something new, moving your body in a new way, saying yes to rest, or simply slowing down—you’ll be supported every step of the way.

Your edge may look different than someone else’s. That’s the beauty of a retreat.
You don’t need to be ready. You just need to be willing.

Why Costa Rica

Pura Vida isn’t just a phrase—it’s a way of life.

In Costa Rica, life slows down just enough for you to actually feel it. The ocean, the jungle, the sunshine, the movement, the stillness—it all invites you back to yourself.

Dominical is a small beach town where the mountains meet the sea, surrounded by lush jungle, waterfalls, wildlife, and endless opportunities for both adventure and rest.

This is the kind of place that helps you breathe deeper. The kind of place that reminds you how good it feels to be fully present.

Meals You Can Feel Good About

Danyasa provides fresh, nourishing meals for retreat guests using high-quality ingredients sourced primarily from local farms that follow organic and sustainable practices.

Their chef prepares daily meals designed to fuel your body, replenish your energy, and support you throughout your days of movement, rest, and adventure.

Each meal is thoughtfully crafted to leave you feeling satisfied, balanced, and well taken care of during your stay.

A Space To Connect

Step away from the noise and reconnect.

Come with a friend or be paired with a roommate —you’ll be surrounded by a supportive, welcoming community.

There’s something about being here, where the jungle meets the sea, that makes connection feel easy.

You’ll leave feeling lighter and more connected to yourself and others.

  • I had the privilege of going on a HEY yoga retreat in Tulum, Mexico. It was the most amazing experience you could every ask for. The community, friendships, love, and overall experience was unreal. Every instructor was inspiring, loving, and kind. The yoga classes were out of this world - imagine ocean waves breaking, a slight breeze and sun shining through the palm trees with music and yoga instruction that makes you feel alive or puts you into the deepest meditative state of your life. Unfortunately I don't live in Cincinnati anymore so I can't experience the HEY classes regularly, but I can't wait to visit Cinci or to go on the next retreat! I can't recommend this studio, the instructors, the community or the experience enough. Grab your mat and get yourself to HEY. I promise you won't regret it!

  • This Tulum retreat was everything I didn’t know I needed — meaningful connections, soulful movement, amazing food, and a truly beautiful setting. I left feeling grounded, reenergized, and deeply grateful. It will be an unforgettable experience.

    - Shelia

  • The retreat gave me the opportunity to connect with fellow yogis that I only see in passing at the studio. I feel more a part of the community after having spent quality time traveling and practicing with the group. Truly grateful for the teachers that traveled with us and shared their knowledge. Especially grateful to Emily and Ben for putting it all together and building this wonderful yoga community.

  • My world was shattered last year with the unexpected diagnosis and sudden loss of our young daughter to cancer. I truly believed peace would no longer find me but this retreat taught me that sorrow can live with joy and peace.Transformative and restorative with all the signs that our girl was right at the retreat with us.
