Welcome to coco yoga & wellness
The Coco Yoga & Wellness sangha endeavors to foster community around practices and opportunities that cultivate self-empowered health and wellbeing. As we strive to understand and embody yogic philosophy, we invite students, teachers, healers, and artists to come together and contribute to creating spaces and support-systems based on Respect, Reciprocity, Self-Awareness, Authenticity, Open-Mindedness, Inclusivity, Intentionality, and Accountability. We're excited to begin the next chapter now with a beautiful dedicated shala space, and we look forward to building new connections and practices that take root and sustain healthy community in and around Playas del Coco and beyond. More information about offerings will be posted as details are determined. Those interested in organizing a class or workshop should contact Teagan to coordinate, and those interested to participate should communicate directly with the class and workshop leaders.
Where & How to Find Us
Coco Yoga & Wellness is not a business or location; it is a sangha--a community of people on a spiritual path--and a collective of independent contractors offering classes and sessions both in person and online. A shala space is available for community to convene and to create online content, whether live-streaming or saved offerings. The shala is located at a private residence and is not open to the general public. Instructors need to communicate and coordinate with their students who would like to attend in person, and remind everyone please to respect the private living space on the lower level. Be sure to arrive and leave only by the street access and extended staircase, within ten to fifteen minutes of the allotted class start and end times. For now there is no parking available on site, but parking may be found nearby on public streets.

Given the nature of Playas del Coco, with such an influx of tourists who visit for days and weeks, seasonal residents who return regularly for months at a time, and the temporary transplants who may settle for some years before moving on, although we enjoy a vibrancy that comes with new energies and constant change, those of us who live here full-time have longed for a more sustaining sense of community and connection. We hope to create this continuity in growing an online sangha rooted in the Coco community experience. Our aim is to offer a variety of classes, workshops, events, and services on online platforms so that we may keep up our practices, connections, and support-systems even when people move away from Coco. For those who are here now, we endeavor to bring people together to cultivate self-empowered health and wellbeing within a conscious container for intentional practice.

Upcoming Classes
|
We’ve got a couple great events lined up this month. On the 15th Vanessa will be delving into yoga philosophy paired with practice opening the hips as we undertake inversions, and on the 23rd Jose is hosting a sound bath to nourish the brain and body with peaceful vibrations during the inward energies of the new moon. Jose will keep up his regular Friday morning Vinyasa classes, and he’s added a couple Yin Yoga classes on Wednesdays the 12th and 26th. We hope to see you in the shala this month for practice, peace, and connection. |
