iFlow Yoga is a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School
This retreat is all about Pura Vida… “Pura” meaning pure or good and “Vida” meaning life. This will be the central theme infused into all of the practices during our time together. Each morning will begin by surfing the waves of breath with Amy’s signature iFlow Vinyasa Master Class. As always it will be an athletic flow with plenty of core work, inversions and arm balances delivered in Amy’s expertly skilled way of bringing all students along, regardless of yoga experience level. We will demystify challenging postures and transitions, breaking them down to advance your personal practice during this week-long immersive experience together. On selected afternoons and evenings, we’ll wind down with Restorative, Yin and Yoga Nidra classes and sunset Meditation practices on the beach.
Our retreat takes place just a few miles north of Tamarindo in Playa Grande, one of the Guanacaste region of Costa Rica’s most secluded beaches. Flanked by the Tamarindo Estuary and the Pacific ocean is the community of Palm Beach Estates at Playa Grande. This private and secluded slice of heaven is the perfect location for your yoga retreat experience. Here you’ll find lush greens, exotic wildlife and several miles of unspoiled beach. I have been so moved by the beauty of this place and the people who live here that I have made this my iFlow Yoga Retreat Center with the purchase of “Villa Bodhi” and the adjacent iFlow Yoga Playa Grande Studio which is now in development. This location is the perfect match to my yogic teaching philosophy which draws Inspiration from the natural flow of life; what is true in Nature is true in us.
Playa Grande beach carries a protected status as part of the Marino Las Baulas National Park (a sea turtle nesting ground). Walking along most of this 3 mile long beach you will see very little development, only the natural beauty of this Pacific coastal shoreline. Playa Grande’s nightlife is quiet in comparison to Tamarindo, but there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the town’s laid-back social scene.
This retreat is for those who seek a challenging vinyasa practice set in the beauty of an unspoiled natural surrounding. My passion for yoga, travel and meeting new people is what makes my retreats special. I have spent the past five years exploring all parts of Costa Rica to find what I feel is the most special place to provide your yoga retreat and learning experiences. This location, my deep knowledge of yogic practices and 15 years of leading yoga retreats and teacher trainings is all here waiting for you.
Join me, advance in your yoga practice and make new friends. Experience the good life – the Pura Vida life!
I am truly in love with Costa Rica and Playa Grande, so much so that I have decided to make this my iFlow Yoga home. The people of Costa Rica are so welcoming, and the Playa Grande location is truly sacred and spectacular. I am so excited to practice yoga and immerse in “the good life” with you in this magical place. I’m certain it will change the way you see your yoga practice and maybe even more...

The iFlow Yoga Retreat was an amazing experience. Amy's extensive yoga knowledge can help anyone advance their practice. I felt motivated and encouraged to explore my own potential and ability. She guides you through a variety of yoga styles, flows and breathing techniques while interpreting yoga philosophy. The location was a beautiful (and fun!) place to immerse in yoga...
