Embodying Queer Strength

Join us on a transformative journey of queer wellness retreat in Costa Rica, where Pilates instructor Manifestany S (he/they) and strength & mindfulness coach John Kim (they/them) will guide you through a week-long adventure in the stunning jungles of Costa Rica. Discover the power of physical strength as you engage in functional Pilates, strength, and breath-work classes led by our coaches. Delve into a comprehensive exploration of exercises and techniques that will enhance your physical well-being, leaving you feeling energized, balanced, and rejuvenated.

This retreat is not only an opportunity to strengthen your physical well-being but also to forge deeper connection within yourself and the larger queer community. Explore how to cultivate emotional strength from within and the people around you. Through empowering discussions, workshops, and shared experiences, you will discover strategies to embrace and celebrate your unique queer life, fostering a renewed sense of resilience and purpose. Amidst the breathtaking beauty of the Diamante Valley near Costa Rica's west coast, find solace and rejuvenation in our stylish and comfortable open air accommodations that provide the perfect setting for self-reflection and personal growth. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of nature through hikes to nearby waterfalls and offsite excursions. Nourish your body with fresh & organic meals of Costa Rican cuisine & celebrate with us with a (optional) sacred plant ceremony, all prepared to nourish your body and soul. You will be surrounded by like-minded individuals who share similar experiences, while creating lifelong friendships and fostering a sense of belonging.

 Join us for this transformative week, where physical conditioning, queer empowerment, and community building converge. Together, we will unlock your inner strength, celebrate your queer identities, and create a lasting impact within ourselves.

 All gender non-confirming identities are welcome, but keep in mind our programming will be geared to those who have been socialized male and/or who are Masc leaning in their gender identities.
