GARZA, COSTA RICA · NOV 4 – 18, 2026
Become a yoga teacher where the jungle meets the sea.
An on-location 200-hour training in a small Pacific fishing town — two weeks of practice, study and Ayurveda that move you from doing yoga to living it.

THE PULL
If you feel the pull, it’s worth listening to.
People don’t come to yoga for perfect cues or flawless sequences. They come for presence. Learning to teach on location — away from the pull of ordinary life — is the fastest way we know to find it.
For two weeks in Garza you’ll wake before the heat, practise as the tide turns, study in the shade of the afternoon, and gather for dinner as the light goes gold. The rhythm does the work. By the end, teaching stops feeling like performance and starts feeling like presence.
You arrive practising yoga. You leave embodying it.
A DAY IN GARZA
The rhythm that changes you: practice, study, eat, rest, repeat.
THE FULL IMMERSION · Nov 4 – 18
Pick a day to see how it flows. Roughly four hours of group study fall between 10–4 each day, with two hours of free time built in.

Before you ask
Not at all. There is no prerequisite. What matters is a willingness to show up, practise, and stay open. Many trainees join simply to deepen their own practice.
No. Non-teachers are warmly welcome. You will still earn the 200-hour credential, but plenty of trainees come to embody the practice rather than to lead a room.
The $4,000 immersion covers your 130 in-person hours, thirteen nights at Garza Hotel, two meals a day, all training and materials, certification, and airport shuttles. Flights and personal incidentals are not included.
Yes — single-room upgrades and payment plans can be arranged on request. Email info@myigita.com and we will find something that works.
Alongside the immersion you will complete 10 hours of observation and a 25-hour practicum to earn your Yoga Alliance RYT-200 certification.
A non-refundable deposit is due at sign-up to hold your place. The full cancellation and transfer policy is shared during the application process.
Places are limited to keep the container small. If the pull is there, take the next step.
