Teachers
BACKGROUND
Jess embraces letting the beauty you love be what you do! She first began teaching yoga in remote villages in Mongolia and was amazed at yoga’s universal ability to inspire and heal. She enjoys guiding her students toward a celebration of the heart, an awareness of the intuitive body, and a deep sense of belonging. She embodies the belief that until we give adequately to ourselves, shining light into our own souls, only then can we find the wealth of energy to give with true intention. With that concept in mind, Jess’s classes are full of playfulness, optimism, forgiveness, empowerment, and humor; reminding her students that anytime we link the mind, body, and soul and give selflessly with intention, on and off the mat, we are practicing yoga.

Background
Costa Dulce (the sweet coast in Spanish) is a full service eco lodge intertwined with nature. Much thought and consideration has gone into the location of all of our buildings keeping the jungle undisturbed and vibrant. To preserve the natural beauty of the jungle no machinery was used in the construction of Costa Dulce. The entire place has been has been hand built using traditional construction methods.
Spread across a jungle hill rising up from the from Playa Escameca Grande, Costa Dulce consists of eleven individual Bungalows, two yoga shalas, a large lounge/common area, wellness centre and a restaurant the Dulce Cocina.
Enjoy ocean views while relaxing in a hammock or sofa from your front porch. Open air design in all of our unique rooms keeps you cool while connecting you with nature.
The Dulce Cocina keeps you healthy and happy with delicious family style meals. Delicious is an understatement the food is amazing! Traditional Nicaraguan food blended with yoga inspired cooking, makes for healthy delicious eating. Omnivore, vegetarian or vegan we’ve got you covered.
The Casa Ola lounge provides a big common area to meet fellow travellers and is a great place to have a cold beverage and watch the sun go down over the surf.
Some of Costa Dulce’s most popular attractions include daily yoga classes from our beach view platform, surfing, learning to surf, professional massages, fishing, waterfalls, horseback rides, paddle boarding, hiking, boating, on site sea turtle nursery, all provided in a welcoming atmosphere by our friendly community and staff.
Managua Intl Airport is closest and we can help set up a shuttle for you (and possibly others if they arrive at the same time). Just let us know your flight details and we can take it from there. It’s best to try to arrive between mid morning and mid afternoon, and depart noon onwards.
