Wherever You're Starting From
Already in Costa Rica? Whether you're in Nosara, up the coast, or in the Valle Central, this is a certification you can reach without an international flight. Three afternoons a week for six weeks, with your mornings free. If you're not local, you won't be figuring out lodging alone. There's a great spot a short walk from the studio and we'll connect you directly.
Coming from abroad? Make it a certification vacation. Six weeks in one of the world's Blue Zones: surf before class, train in an air-conditioned studio on the best reformers in the industry, and leave certified. October and early November are green season, when Nosara is quiet and lodging is at its cheapest.
