The retreat will be held at an intimate beachfront hotel and yoga center located in Santa Teresa, a breathtaking white sand beach on the Pacific Ocean of Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula. Situated on four acres of unspoiled tropical beach, you will find beautiful swimming areas and also outcroppings of rock where natural tide pools form. Each room at this center is unique, and the size of the rooms varies.

Throughout the day, you will be encouraged to explore the beautiful island as well as take advantage of our relaxing beachfront location. Restaurants and shops are within walking distance of this center.

Holly Ulewicz, 500-RYT, Ads, YACEP, RMT

Holly has been fascinated with yoga since her youth. Yoga and healing arts are a calling that she has pursued throughout her life. The original calling to start as a yoga teacher happened organically with a job offer to teach without any formal training at the college recreation center in 2014.  She took on formal teacher training in 2015, she has been teaching for over a decade.

Additions to her toolbox of healing skills have unfolded in similar ways. With Reiki training in 2020 surfacing from a shared space in a corporate office with a shamanic practitioner. Similarly, the intuitive pull to practice acupuncture called before there was a space to practice it in, and it has since become one of the most desired services she offers.

One thing is for certain: she is meant to do this work. In devoting her life to these practices, Holly has come to describe her work in the same way she describes her business… “divine unity”. Divine unity with God’s will for her to assist humanity in their healing and the progression of their consciousness. Divine unity with other women and their dreams. Divine unity with other similar businesses in the community to achieve the same shared goals of shifting hearts, opening minds, and spreading peace, like wildfire.

Holly has studied with the International Institute of Yoga Therapy, White Wolf Healing, the D’Rose Institute, and completed a master’s degree in Exercise Science at Wayne State University (with a 4.0!)

Holly is a living testimony that what is meant for you in this lifetime will not only love you back, it will hunt you down, find you in every shadow, and ask you to keep coming back again and again.  She has joked that the venture to Costa Rica has been quite the same, something new and scary, but a calling that must be answered.
