'Giving Thanks' Retreat with Jessica Bellofatto and Adam Kelinson in Nosara, Costa Rica
Picture this - Long white sandy beaches, unspoiled rainforest, and an amazing group of like-minded individuals to share a fantastic experience in a pressure-free environment. Conceived by Adam Kelinson, owner and director of Organic Performance and author of The Athlete’s Plate: Real Food for High Performance and Jessica Bellofatto, owner of KamaDeva Yoga, this Athlete's Performance retreat includes a blend of daily yoga, beach running, surfing, and nutritional guidance, support, and education with enough free time for restoration and all important recovery, all complimented by outrageously fresh local cuisine against the backdrop of paradise. Perfect for yogis, triathletes, surfers of all levels and anyone living an active lifestyle. Participants will experience the benefits of yoga, nutrition, and fitness all in one day.

Accomodation
We will be staying at the incredible Tierra Magnifica in Nosara, Costa Rica. On our last trip to Costa Rica, we scoped out this gorgeous location, which has amazing mountain and ocean views. The rooms are beautiful and tastefully decorated, and comfortable! The service is amazing. This place is truly a little luxury in the jungle!

All meals are included except for 2 lunches and 2 dinners.
