  • Definitely not. We have people with all different levels of experience in movement. By the end of the week, you’ll feel better connected to your body - no matter your experience level.

  • Most people who join don’t have a regular mindfulness practice. The only thing that’s important is an open mind to trying new things.

    For those who do have experience, it’s an opportunity to deepen your practice with world-class instructors in the wellness paradise of Nosara.
