Yoga at Bodhi Surf School, in the tropical paradise of Bahia Ballena, Costa Rica. Weekly classes, private sessions and Surf & Yoga Camps.
We are Bodhi Surf Sociedad Anonima (or Bodhi Surf Limited Liability Corporation in English), a surf and yoga camp in Costa Rica, founded in 2010 by four friends with a shared vision to utilize our skills and passions to create positive change in the world. We are located in Bahia Ballena, Osa, Puntarenas, a small town on Costa Rica’s Pacific Coast that is still relatively-untouched by large-scale development, where you can experience the “Pura Vida” way of life amidst breathtaking scenery, and where jungle, ocean, and mountains meet.
The word “bodhi” is Sanskrit for “awareness”, and that is exactly what we at Bodhi Surf + Yoga hope that our guests gain: a deeper insight into the lifestyles of surfing and yoga, a mind-body-earth connection, and knowledge about our little community in Costa Rica.
Bodhi offers experiential learning vacations, and allows guests to delve deep into both surfing and yoga. Our pinnacle vacation package, Bodhi Sessions surf and yoga camps, are different than traditional surf camps or yoga retreats in that they feature an equal number of each activity — we have learned that it is by doing these activities together, and with with qualified instructors, that people have the best possible learning experience. Our surf and yoga curricula are structured to feature ample theory, time for questions, instructor demonstrations, practice sessions, and instructor feedback; the results are that students see real progression and become both independent and confident in their skills.
Admittedly, Bodhi Surf + Yoga offers a different kind of vacation than is considered typical. The Bodhi experience promotes responsible tourism, embraces the concept of community, and and brings guests closer to nature by providing them with powerful experiences in a pristine natural setting. We offer our guests a holistic and unique vacation that inspires them to see the world, and their role in it, in a new way.
