Birdsong, jungle rhythms, and the quiet presence of horses set the tone for a week of learning, presence, and genuine connection. Woven together, yoga and horsemanship create space to deepen your understanding of yourself while learning a more respectful, honest way of being with horses and with life.

Set in a horse farm in the Caribbean jungle of Costa Rica, the immersion begins with yoga and learning the language of horses through body language, intention, breath, and awareness. As the week unfolds, you’ll develop your connection through liberty work, yoga with horses, swimming with horses in the sea, and chakra work, with time to absorb each experience in the living rhythm of the jungle.

Choose the pace that suits you, from a more spacious programme open to complete beginners to a fuller option with additional horse sessions and mounted work. If you want to reconnect with yourself, deepen your connection with horses, and discover the synergy between yoga and horsemanship, this immersion is for you.

I live Yoga and my life is with horses. I am a 500 E- RYT certified yoga instructor. I grew up with horses, my life has been to understand and live with horses in harmony, true to their spirit and well being. I have found the incredible healing power that yoga and horses can bring to people and also to horses themselves. My passion is to share this knowledge, so others may experience, healing, wellness and live their life to their potential. And to share this knowledge and understanding of horses , that it may open up the hearts to humans, that their is another way to be with horses, a way of unity, harmony and well being and not of dominance and force. This is my life's dharma. Namaste
