Event Details
Are you ready to live in community?
Maybe you’ve already done online research, visited a few places, or even had a taste of communal living in the past.
And now, the call to community feels stronger than ever.
But the big questions still swirl…
- How do I actually make this happen?
- What kind of community is right for me?
- Do I have enough value to offer?
- Am I confident I can make this leap?
- Is it even possible at this stage in life?
These are all critical questions on the journey.
You’re not alone in asking them.
And you don’t have to figure it out alone, either.
That’s what this retreat is for.
Step into community with confidence and clarity.
Join the four-day immersive experience designed to help you step forward on your path to intentional community living.
Led by Cynthia Tina, founder of Community Finders and Ecovillage Tours, and a longtime community matchmaker, this is a rare opportunity to step away from daily life and step into what could be your next chapter.
Whether you’re just starting to explore the idea of intentional community, or you’re already deep in the search—this experience is for you.
Cynthia explains who the retreat is for in this short video ☝️
During our time together, you’ll:
- Get clarity on where you are in your journey and what kind of community fits you best
- Explore what you have to contribute—and what you don’t (yet!)
- Learn how to confidently evaluate communities so you don’t waste time on the wrong fit
- Practice presenting yourself in ways that feel honest, grounded, and empowered
- Gain tools, support, and a boost of confidence to move forward—on your terms
- Live in community for a few days and feel what that’s really like
Who this is for:
You’re ready for a new chapter.
Maybe you’re navigating a big transition—retirement, caregiving, a breakup, a change in health—or just feeling a deep yearning for more connection.
Whether you’re community-curious or community-committed, this retreat will leave you with:
- Clarity on what kind of community is right for you
- Confidence in who you are and what you bring to the table
- Tools and insights to take action—especially for when visiting communities
- Authentic connection with others on a similar path
- A lived experience of community to guide your next steps
- A chance to pause, reflect, and breathe—away from the overwhelm

Event Details
Hot Yoga 26 Extravaganza is open to everyone, from the beginner who has never even ever tried a Bikram Yoga class, to experienced practitioners and Bikram Yoga teachers. The series is 26 poses and two breathing exercises always done in the same sequence and timing, but every time it is different because the practitioner enters class with a different body, mindset and daily experience. The yoga series is designed to strengthen and open up the body; calm the mind and achieve a “Moving Meditation.” By practicing the same poses, iconic poses like Standing Head to Knee, Standing Bow-Pulling, Triangle, Camel and Rabbit, the practitioner becomes very adept at the 3 “B’s,” breathing, balancing and bending.
This is our home studio, YogaSol in Norwalk, Connecticut, 21st Annual Bikram Yoga/Hot Yoga 26 annual retreat. Nineteen have taken place at the Pura Vida Spa which is a very special retreat center because it has a beautiful hot yoga studio and it has a friendly tranquil and spiritual vibe. Many of our group hail from all over the United States, not only Connecticut but New York, Michigan, Florida, Minnesota and Colorado. A lot of them come back every year to celebrate the yoga, our friendships and natural exquisiteness of Costa Rica.
In addition to two Hot Yoga 26 classes a day, we do a mid-week Posture Clinic and beach trip to the Pacific Ocean at Jaco, we take hikes in the coffee plantation across the street from the Pura Vida Spa and some of us play tennis and pickleball at the local tennis club. The Wellness treatments at the Pura Vida Spa are wonderful and the solar-heated pool and hot tub are excellent ways to relax in between classes.
Rates start at $1820 USD p/p in a shared tentalow. Other room types available.

Awaken Your Truth, Ignite Your Voice, and Let Love Lead Your Life.
What if you could put your life on pause for a week? You’re at a mountain retreat in Costa Rica, surrounded by lush gardens overlooking the Central Valley. For the first time in forever, you feel truly free. Nature holds you here. You can hear yourself again. And you feel a new frequency of joy in your being. Pura Vida, which means “pure life”, is no longer just a saying but becomes your lived reality.
Welcome to iLuminate 2026!
On this retreat you will be guided to remember who you truly are, through knowing the brightest, fullest, most radiant version of you! We’ll balance grounding morning practices with powerful evening sound journeys and sacred ceremonies. And something we’ve never done before—you’ll participate in co-created healings for humanity, as we amplify our own love frequency and send these waves across the planet.
In your free time, the lush mountain energy of Mother Earth holds you. Time to breathe, to wander, to let the energies of Costa Rica work on you. There’s space here to let whatever needs to move, move. Commune with exotic birds, soak in the hot tub, meditate by the pool, share a beautiful conversation. And when something more calls? Optional eco-excursions and spa treatments await.
By the end of the week, something shifts. You’re not the same person who arrived. Through our intimate group experiences and personal introspection, you’ve begun resonating a frequency that’s yours—and it doesn’t fade when you go home. You’ll leave with real connections, new practices, and the unmistakable feeling of having found your way back to yourself.
Prices from $2200-$3500 USD per person and includes:

Every day is designed to balance mindful movement, restorative stillness, and the joy of adventure. Join daily morning vinyasa yoga sessions that are accessible to all levels and always optional—whether you’re just starting or have years of practice. Evening offerings like Yin and Restorative yoga, along with guided meditations, help you unwind deeply. Tami Klingenberg’s compassionate and skillful guidance creates a space where everyone feels welcome.
Between practices, nourish yourself with vibrant, farm-to table meals crafted with local ingredients. These delicious, wholesome dishes fuel both body and soul.
Beyond the Mat
Your journey includes much more than yoga. Enjoy a massage, relax poolside with a good book, or simply soak up the breathtaking natural surroundings. For those seeking adventure, experience the thrill of zip-lining through the cloud forest, hike to hidden waterfalls, or tour a nearby coffee farm.
Recognized as one of Costa Rica’s premier wellness destinations, Pura Vida Retreat & Spa spans eight acres of lush gardens and offers a range of inviting accommodations. Thoughtful hospitality and serene beauty combine to make this the perfect space for transformation and rest.
We invite you to join this journey that we hope will leave you with a heart full of memories, friendships, and a renewed sense of self.

Morning Sessions (Self-Love)
The day begins with a silent meditation followed by a morning salute to the sun through a yoga practice. The yoga practice will be followed by a pranayama practice. These sessions are designed to cultivate self-awareness, mindfulness, and a deeper appreciation for your body. Morning sessions will include an exploration of topics through journaling, and will encourage participants to reflect on their relationships to self-care in order to enhance self awareness and transformation.
Afternoon Sessions (Collective Love)
Afternoons are dedicated to fostering connection with others. Activities include individual or partner yoga, group discussions on key yogic texts. Spiritual texts are intended to assist in building conscious relationships. These sessions emphasize the idea that collective well-being starts with a practical understanding of yogic philosophy in action. Participants are encouraged to share individually and collectively through group participation and journaling.

This is a key component of the retreat. Participants will spend time working with local non-profit organizations.
Evening Activities: Universal Love (Love Integration)
