Yoga Teacher for a Jungle Retreat Centre
Opportunity description
At ALYA, we're a small, slow-living jungle sanctuary tucked into the Nicoya Peninsula on Costa Rica's Northern Pacific Coast. Our 19-acre eco-retreat centre is a place where life moves gently, with days shaped by rest, presence, and a deep connection to the natural world around us.
We're opening our doors to a yoga teacher ready to hold space in our shala and live immersed in the jungle alongside us. This is a work trade exchange, less about structured hours and more about sharing a calm, conscious daily rhythm as part of our community. You'll teach yoga with presence, offer light, collaborative support around the land, and join us in the slow pace of jungle life. Couples aligned with this lifestyle are also very welcome.
We're looking for someone who feels genuinely excited about immersive jungle living, who enjoys slow mornings, the sound of the forest at night, warm weather, and close relationship with nature. Your teaching style and background matter less than the authenticity of your practice and your ability to hold a grounded, nourishing space for our community and guests.
In exchange, we offer shared accommodation, basic food staples, full access to our yoga shala, and a peaceful environment designed for slow living and deep rest. We'd love to know about your yoga background and teaching style, what you naturally enjoy contributing beyond yoga, your available dates and preferred length of stay, and what draws you to jungle living.
