RELAX + REJUVENATE

Caribe Town Yoga Retreat

Join us for a week long journey of tranquility and rejuvenation with daily movement sessions, relaxing jungle accommodations, and vibrant wildlife. This is a Family Owned Eco Retreat on the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica.

Costa Rica Retreat june 28-july 5, 2026

Escape to the serene paradise of Playa Cocles and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Costa Rica’s Caribbean side. Join us for a week long yoga retreat at Caribe Town, where the sound of the rainforest and ocean will lull you to sleep, and the vibrant wildlife will greet you every morning.

Reconnect with yourself, and experience the magic of Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast. This is our second time hosting at this boutique hotel (and our third retreat overall), and we are thrilled to bring another group back to this land that has touched our hearts in the deepest ways.

This retreat is intentionally crafted to help you slow down, rediscover your inner rhythm, nourish your body, and connect with a soulful community of like hearted humans — all while surrounded by ocean waves, vibrant jungle energy, and delicious, locally sourced meals.

“Better than I could have imagined! Our time in Costa Rica together was chill (even with 14 - 16 optional classes over 7 days), uplifting and a beautiful reminder of the community we are so lucky to have as well as the necessities of life. Being in another country and among a culture that doesn't have or indulge in some of the comforts that we do as Americans, was a great reminder of what's important in life and what's not. This group was so open, inclusive, fun and down for adventure. Gabrielle had everything perfectly planned from comfy accommodations, meals, transportation and class offerings. I've been on multiple yoga retreats & this ranks among the best. Thank you to everyone who went, Equilibrium studio and Gabrielle!”

“The "Namaste" in Costa Rica Retreat was the best gift I have given myself all year! My cheeks hurt from laughing so hard with my wonderful friends. So many fantastic meals, outings, and of course the complementary styles of teaching between morning and evening sessions. I feel so fluid and relaxed for the last quarter of the year.”

“The 2024 Costa Rica retreat with Equilibrium Movement Was an amazing experience. We were welcomed by the most gracious hosts in a beautiful environment. Gabrielle was a fun, flexible, and adventurous leader. She was up for anything and encouraged the group to go with the flow. No one in the group felt excluded. Not only did we practice yoga in a serene jungle yoga shala, but we had many cultural immersion experiences and lots of free time. I will be joining retreats with Equilibrium Movement in the future.”
