If you've ever dreamed of escaping the noise of everyday life, immersing yourself in nature, and leveling up your martial arts skills—Jungle’s Edge in Nosara, Costa Rica is your destination. This isn’t just another retreat. It’s a transformational experience where you’ll train Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) in an open-air jungle dojo, fuel your body with healthy meals, and find moments of stillness between adrenaline-filled sessions. Let’s walk through what a week looks like at one of our martial arts retreats in Costa Rica.

Day 1: Welcome to the Jungle

Your retreat begins the moment you arrive in Nosara. Jungle’s Edge takes care of your airport shuttle, making your journey smooth and stress-free. As you pull up to the tropical oasis nestled in the jungle, you’re greeted by warm staff, fellow retreaters, and the vibrant sounds of nature.

Check into your choice of shared or private eco-friendly accommodations, take a dip in our top-hill pool, or relax by the fire pit. That evening, enjoy your first farm-to-table meal, crafted by our chefs using local, organic ingredients.

Day 2–3: Into the Flow

Each morning starts with sunrise yoga in our jungle shala, a grounding practice to center your mind and body. After a nutritious breakfast—think tropical fruits, gluten-free pancakes, or protein-packed smoothie bowls—you head to the open-air dojo for your first Muay Thai or BJJ session.

These classes are taught by seasoned professionals who adapt to all skill levels. You’ll sweat, learn, and grow—with the sounds of birds and howler monkeys in the background. There’s something magical about training martial arts in Costa Rica’s jungle that amplifies focus and intensity.

Afternoons are yours to explore—surf the legendary Nosara waves, schedule a massage, or enjoy the cold plunge, gym, or open mat.

Day 4: Rest, Recover, Reflect

Midweek is for recovery. Sleep in or join a restorative yoga session. Then, walk through our garden, where we grow avocados, bananas, and guanabana among many other fruits and veggies.

Later, take a group trip to the beach or participate in a guided meditation, allowing your mind to absorb the transformation already taking place. Many guests report a deeper sense of clarity and connection by this point.

Day 5–6: Strength and Brotherhood

By now, you’ve built a rhythm—and likely, a few new friendships. Morning training becomes a ritual. Whether you're practicing submissions on the mat or sharpening your striking, you’re developing not just skill, but discipline and mental resilience.

After class, enjoy freshly-prepared meals that support your performance, including vegetarian and grass-fed protein options. As the sun sets, you can reflect around the fire pit or catch up on work in your downtime—digital nomads love our fast Wi-Fi and inspiring workspace.

Day 7: One Last Roll

The final training session is always emotional. You’ve pushed past limits, connected with incredible people, and found strength you didn’t know you had. Closing night includes a community dinner where stories, laughs, and contact info are exchanged. Many retreaters return—or even stay longer.
