Yoga Programs in Costa Rica

I would recommend the program to others to challenge yourself, make new friends, do amazing activities, meet new people, and to immerse yourself in a new culture! You really get to learn about yourself and who you are as a human on this program! I would tell myself that I can do anything so I got this and I should just enjoy myself! My trip to Costa Rica was truly life-changing. I made deep connections, did amazing activities, and I really gained clarity as to what I want out of life. I came out of this experience with more confidence and a greater appreciation for life!

This trip exposed me to so many new people from different places. I really value getting to meet all of them while also getting to experience an amazing new country. I loved honing my Spanish skills and getting to be adventurous and so crazy stuff.

I wouldn’t have traded this life experience of mine for anything. I met 13 other people that I can now call family. I am eternally grateful for all the conversations I’ve had, the ups of the trip, and even the downs because it makes the trip more real and not on the surface

Over the course of my 6 week trip to Costa Rica I learned so much about respecting other people’s cultures and being a global citizen. This trip changed the way I look at important issues at home and in my own life such as consumership and sustainability. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is looking to enrich their knowledge and experience traveling in a foreign country. It’s a trip I will always appreciate and never forget!

This program is great if you’re looking to get out of your comfort zone and make new friends and challenge yourself. I feel like I have grown a lot as a person throughout this trip. I definitely have become more independent and I feel a lot more confident that I can rely on myself to get me through hard times and I feel a lot more prepared for college. My leadership skills definitely grew a lot during this trip and I also feel just mentally stronger overall than when I started this trip. I am a lot more confident in myself as a person and I am proud of my values. I feel a lot stronger and I’m so glad that I did this trip.

Travelling helps you discover the purpose and meaning of life. At least once in a lifetime you should travel to an unknown place, distance yourself from work, people, money and routine. Meet new people, make new friends and cherish new memories! Work in a restaurant and experience serving. Volunteer somewhere and experience social work. Work with children, with elderly people. I want to store all of it in my mind bank forever.

I went with my dad here in August of 2016. It was an amazing experience, and I could not have been more impressed with the high quality Spanish instruction, collegiality, and organization of Nosara Spanish Institute. I HIGHLY recommend.

Such a beautiful country and such a great way to see it. My time there exceeded my expectations and provided me with a cultural experience that one can't get as a tourist. I felt like a contributing member of society there and living with a host family only made it better. Everything went smoothly, right from my first email inquiry, to booking the trip, to arriving and being met at the airport, being welcomed by my host family with open arms and oriented to the city and program. I was able to improve my spanish skills the first week and then volunteered at a children's education program for the next three weeks. The times weren't demanding and I was able to explore San Jose in the afternoons, and the country on the weekends. Assistance with booking travel and accommodations for weekend travel was provided. It was an experience I won't forget and will definitely be doing something similar in future.
