SHE RISES: YoGA RETREAT FOR CHRISTIAN WOMEN - Costa Rica
June 8- 13, 2026
Join us for a 6-day transformative retreat in Playa Pelada, Costa Rica—one of the world’s rare Blue Zones—where lush jungle meets the serenity of the sea. This intimate experience is designed for Christian women seeking deep rest, spiritual renewal, and meaningful adventure. Through a powerful blend of somatic movement, yoga, breathwork, meditation, soulful journaling, and guided excursions, you will release what’s been weighing you down and return home with renewed energy, clarity, confidence, and a deeper connection with yourself and Jesus Christ.
This is the 20th retreat hosted by Emma - international yoga teacher and embodied yoga life coach. Retreats usually sell out.
A few spots remain.
This retreat is perfect for you if...
You crave adventure and time in nature.
Wake up to the sounds of the jungle, explore secluded beaches, and choose from unforgettable excursions like horseback riding, surfing, kayaking, ATV rides, or zip-lining—all while enjoying the peaceful charm of Playa Pelada.
You give so much to others that you’ve lost touch with yourself.
If you’re constantly pouring into your family, work, and community, this retreat offers a sacred pause to rest, be nurtured, and reconnect with the woman God created you to be.
You’re ready to release what’s been weighing you down.
Through somatic movement, mindfulness, and guided journaling, you’ll gently let go of self-doubt, old stories, and emotional burdens—creating space for clarity, confidence, and renewed faith.
You desire a deeper connection with God and like-hearted women.
Experience meaningful conversations, shared faith, and supportive community that continue to inspire long after the retreat ends. Join the tribe of hundreds of Brave Babes who have experienced this too.
What our community is saying
Yoga styles taught during the retreat
Dynamic Flow
A strong, alignment-based vinyasa practice. Through intelligent sequencing, informed alignment, and yogic wisdom, students are encouraged to connect breath to movement as we create energy, awareness, and vitality in the body. Our morning practices will be challenging and awakening, yet accessible for all levels.
26/2
26 poses + 2 breathing exercises. By doing these yoga poses, one can exercise and invigorate all of the body by stimulating its glands, nerves, and organs and by improving circulation of oxygen throughout the body.
Yin (ish)
Long, slow, and deep is one way to describe this yoga class. It's yin(ish) focused, meaning postures are low to the ground and are held for longer periods of time to bring stillness and restoration to the body and mind.
Functional Restorative
Expect to move in this class, but with minimal flow, more basic poses and longer holds. This class will help to improve range of motion, balance, and understanding of physical limitations. We use a variety of props: straps, bolsters, and blocks to deepen the stretch and find support in the postures.
Somatic Movement
Somatic Yoga is all about feeling and exploring. Emma gives movement suggestions, but encourages you to follow your intuition and move in a mindful, yet playful way. It's a gentle and nourishing practice that brings us back to our softness and innocence, while releasing stored emotions energy. This can help you develop a more self-compassionate relationship with yourself and your body.
