One of the most wonderful things about Costa Rica is the surfing. Our many beaches on two coasts provide hundreds of fantastic, reliable and consistent spots for surfers of every level and our water is so warm you don't need to wear a wet suit. People travel here from around the world to experience our waves.
I love the sport and my passion is sharing the knowledge.The local waves are gentle and perfectly shaped for beginners so you'll be cruising in no time. If you are already a surfer, I'll take you to a harder break. It's the most fun sport in the world!
My program is also special because we guide guests into once-in-a-lifetime shape. Surfing is an amazing workout. It works your arms, your abs and your legs. I have also discovered exceptional yoga studios in the jungle, close to the ocean and our surfing is balanced with daily yoga classes to stretch and strengthen your muscles.
I love being outside and fitness is the core of my life, so I schedule daily hikes between surfing sessions. If you are game, I'd love to hike with you and tell you all about the lush local wildlife we will see. We'll also spend a morning horseback riding to a hidden waterfall, one of my favorite secret spots in the area and covering ourselves in amazing mineral mud.
Don't worry, though, I won't push you too hard. Make sure to bring a good book because there's plenty of beach hang-out time and I also schedule a massage, facial and pedicure for my guests for a little delicious pampering. Guests stay at beachfront hotels so any time you want to take a break you can wander outside, grab a towel and take a dip.
If you're an uber-athlete, we're ready to rock. If you are just learning about fitness and feeling strong, we'll so take out so happily work at your level.
My friends and I can't wait to show you the best custom bikini designer in Costa Rica.
Welcome to my world - I can't wait to share it with you.
I feel like I have the keys to a magical experience and I want you to share it with me. Simply put, I want you to enjoy my home, a place that I feel is truly paradise.
Pura Vida,
