Yoga retreats in Costa Rica in an open-air rainforest shala.
Practice with the forest all around, swim in the Naranjo River and eat three organic, farm-to-table meals a day.
Yoga in the rainforest, by the river.
Yoga retreats at Posada Natura are led by visiting teachers in our upstairs open-air shala, which holds 40 people and looks out over the trees.
Between classes there is time to swim in the river, walk to a waterfall and rest in a riverside casita. Every retreat here helps protect more than 10,000 acres of rainforest through Eco Era, our nonprofit partner.

Celina De Leon, retreat leader
The retreat protects what holds the retreat.
Posada Natura is operated by Eco Era, a U.S. 501(c)(3) founded in 1991. Its protected lands span the Naranjo and Savegre watersheds and a vital rainforest corridor in the Cerro Nara mountains.
Posada is so obviously special… you enter the gates and there's a protective shield around you which enables freedom to explore the challenging things.
