May focuses on Movement. The schedule includes new movement classes designed to restore vitality, a spinal articulation series, fascia expansion sessions, and guided water meditation. Renowned visiting practitioners join the program to share whole-body approaches to mobility and resilience. Outdoor offerings take advantage of the surrounding cloud forest with mindful hikes and tree-climbing experiences that emphasize the regenerative effects of nature.
June highlights Community. Programming centers on practices that foster connection—breathwork sessions to calm and center the mind, communal dining experiences across the resort’s five restaurants, and opportunities to deepen relationships through shared meals. A visiting masters series provides cultural insight and hands-on workshops with Costa Rica’s Boruca community, such as traditional weaving and mask-making, creating meaningful exchanges between guests and local makers.
