GoodLifeRetreat-Banner.jpg

Let us show you what The Good Life feels like.

Join us in beautiful Nicaragua and tap into our version of the good life. Your home for a week will be Casa Kon Tiki, a 4 bedroom house steps from the beach inside Hacienda Iguanas. Iguanas is a gated community (safe + private beaches) in southern Nica that hosts the world class surf breaks Playa Colorados and Panga drops. Start your day with incredible coffee, a fresh fruit smoothie, guided meditation and conscious movement. Add a surf lesson, pool time, a sailing trip, beach walks, and the best sunsets you can imagine; and YOU are living The Good Life.


What’s included:

- Daily yoga + Meditation + Pilates + Yoga Nidra
- One surf lesson + dry land coaching with Mat
- 7 nights lodging at Casa Kon Tiki (or another house once Kon Tiki is full)
- All meals at the house prepared fresh and tailored to your dietary needs (two dinners out will not be included)
- Sunset Sail boat trip from SJDS
- Wine pairing dinner with Sommelier Mat Ryan

I have gone on many yoga retreats over the years and Cher and Mat’s “Good Life Retreat” was by far the best I have been on. The quality of the Cher’s yoga instruction was top notch and prepared my body for the daily surfing. The surf instruction and break was fantastic. I have never felt more supported in the water and on the wave. Mat got everyone catching waves and standing up. The house was amazing, it felt like a tree house, complete with colorful birds and monkeys. At night I was lulled to sleep by ocean waves crashing and evening rainstorms. In the morning having coffee and a smoothie made with fresh fruit was perfect prior to yoga. After that a wonderful breakfast sustained me for afternoon surfing and hanging out on the beach with my new friends. The dinners and wine pairings were delicious and Mat and Cher made sure I did not have any soy or gluten (I am allergic). The effort and energy they brought to the retreat was impressive and everyone had a great time. If you are interested in making new friends, eating well, playing in the ocean, practicing quality yoga, fun adventures (did I mention the sailboat trip to the swimming beach?) then this trip is for you. I can’t wait for the next one!

Come away with me to Costa Rica.

Where we do yoga in the tree tops amongst the birds and the butterflies and occasionally with the monkeys. Whether it’s exploring the little village of Santa Teresa, taking surf lessons with the best instructors, or exploring the hillside on ATV’s, there’s something for everyone on this retreat. The theme is play, move, enjoy local cuisine and culture and hopefully spark your love for surfing and yoga.

 
 
 
 

Retreat Praise

 
 
I wanted to take the time to thank Cher Aslor for some amazing experiences. My first trip was on a mile-stone birthday. I stepped outside my comfort zone and planned a trip to get away and try something new. I had recently started my yoga practice and I had a goal of learning to surf. The retreat was one of my best Birthdays ever. The location was hand picked by Cher, and it was perfect. The other guests made the trip even more enjoyable. Cher surrounds herself with amazing people and it shows. I made so many new friends and I have stayed in touch with a lot of them. The surfing was the best!! - the beach had different levels of swells, so whether you are a beginner or advanced, I think you can find what you are looking for. The yoga practices are perfect, she is an amazing instructor and her classes flow with just the right mixture of peace and power while challenging you to engage dig a little deeper and be present. The food and accommodations were as promised, and you are free to experience things on your own also. I found myself connecting and doing events with the group mostly, it really was a magical experience. So much so that I have gone back for more, and everytime I have made more friends and experiences that make me grateful to call her a friend.

Client words

 
 
Cher is one of the warmest teachers I’ve ever met. Even as a brand new student, meeting a stranger I felt that she had my very best interest at heart and was keeping me safe and informed in my practice. Over many years of practicing and learning with Cher I’ve come to see that she has the true gift of teaching. She keeps her students safe, engaged while taking them deep into the practice.
