Program
What's a Muay Thai retreat In Costa Rica like?
Glad you asked! The all-inclusive retreats are filled with endless amounts of activities like Muay Thai, yoga, surfing, swimming, and, of course, eating and relaxing.
Eat, train, surf, and relax in a tropical paradise
This is not your typical vacation. Instead of eating like a slob and lounging around while your vacation time slips away, the goal for this retreat is to help you come home in better shape than when you left! Throughout this retreat, you will learn a unique blend of Muay Thai techniques, training methods, and drills that you can take home and adapt into your own training routine.
With this type of training, you will develop a more aware and focused mind, especially through the additional yoga and mindfulness practices that the group does throughout the week.
