(Newswire.net — February 7, 2014) Chicago, IL — If the thought of a tropical summer paradise seems to good to be true in the midst of the winter storms blanketing this part of the country, get ready to dream. Julie Schoen, author, yoga instructor, and founder of Yoginiology.com, is hosting an incredible yoga retreat on the beautiful beaches of Nosara, Costa Rica this May and there are still a few spots left. Lodging, classes, meals, and more will be offered for seven nights (May 24th – May 30th) at the famous Blue Spirit Resort, which is perched atop a rainforest and turtle refuge overlooking the Playa Guinoes, a stunning beach, that the region is famous for.
Schoen has been practicing yoga since she was seventeen and has been teaching professionally for over six years. The author of several popular books, including Just Do Yoga, Keep Calm and Stretch, and Flat Tummy Yoga, Schoen has just released her first DVD, Yoga Sweat, which is currently available on Amazon.com.
For people interested in going on the retreat with someone not interested in yoga classes, Schoen is willing to work to adjust rates and make sure everyone’s needs are met. “There are so many opportunities for adventure on this trip,” she says, noting that special plans can be made for guests interested in taking surfing lessons, going fishing, bird watching, or exploring nearby waterfalls and jungle.
“There is something for everyone here and I’m happy to accommodate everyone’s needs. Everyone should experience Costa Rica – the people, the food, the landscape. And what time is better than now?”
Blue Spirit Resort is known for its five-star hospitality and accommodations, offering a wide range of spa service, salt water infinity pools overlooking the ocean, gourmet vegetarian cuisine (all meals are included with the cost of the retreat), stunning rooms and suites, and yoga studios with beach and jungle views.
Nosara is famous for its surfing and yoga, giving rise to the phrase, “No Shirt, No Shoes, Nosara.” Often considered one of the most unspoiled corners of Costa Rica, Nosara’s natural landscape is protected by the country’s national park system and the pride of local citizens who go out of their way to keep their area clean and green.
Schoen, who has traveled to Costa Rica numerous times, is fluent in Spanish (she used to teach the subject at public schools) and knowledgeable of the culture and country, making her more than just an excellent yoga instructor, but the perfect guide for the adventure of a lifetime.
The yoga retreat will be held May 24th – May 30th, 2014. There are just a few rooms left so don’t wait to reserve a spot!
