Program Details
Your days start early and close to the ocean. From Monday to Friday you teach two 45-minute classes a day, 10 a week. The standard schedule is 6:45–7:30 and 7:45–8:30, but you can move one class to a sunset session on days without an afternoon activity, often Mondays and Thursdays. Whether you keep both classes in the morning or split your day is up to you.
On top of yoga, you host two community activities a week. That could be a bonfire, sunset drinks at the bus, a dinner night at Red Pepper or La Tica, a beach clean-up, or a walk to the tide pools. We pick what fits the group that week and make sure everyone feels welcome.
You get 2 full days off EVERY WEEK.
We’re a good fit if you’re a certified yoga teacher, you enjoy meeting new people every week, and you’re comfortable leading a group. Our kitchen is fully vegetarian, so it helps if you’re open to that.
In return, we offer:
- Free accommodation in the volunteer house (shared room) + basic kitchen.
- Good breakfast every morning (multiple options).
- Dinner 4 times a week
- 35% off on your tab
- Live and surf in paradise
If this sounds like your kind of place, send us a message and tell us a bit about your teaching style and what you’d bring to the community.
