Yoga at Pura Vida Retreat & Spa
Pura Vida Resort and Spa staff yoga instructors offer their own unique style of yoga twice a day.
While styles may vary based on instructor, the yoga classes at Pura Vida are appropriate for students of all levels and our teachers are extremely responsive to students’ needs and interests.
Yoga classes are included in our Mind + Body + Spirit packages.
Nightly guests are welcome to attend each yoga class for $20 a class per person by registering at the reception area.
Everyone is welcome to use our four yoga halls for personal practice when they are not in use or scheduled for class. To honor the sacred space, we ask that you kindly remove your shoes before you enter. Please do not bring glass inside.
During COVID 19 Pandemic: Maximum capacity in the Lila & Ananda halls will be 24 people including the instructor. 6 feet spacing lines are marked on the floors.
If guests want to partake of yoga classes, please plan on traveling with their own mat and props. Pura Vida can provide a disinfected prop kit (1 mat, 1 blanket and 2 blocks) for their stay for an additional $5 USD p/p per day if Pura Vida is informed in advance. Guest will be required to remove their props from the halls after each practice so the room can be cleaned.
