8 Day Bodhi Sessions Adult Surf + Yoga Camp in Costa Rica

Travis has been surfing since the age of 14, and two years later became a member of La Jolla Shores Longboard Association and started competing locally.

In college, he joined the NSSA (National Scholastic Surfing Association), the University of San Diego’s surf team, and became a Surf Coach for the University of San Diego High School.

He also founded Evening Glass Surf School in Mission Beach-San Diego and was the head surf instructor. He now has nearly 20 years of surf experience, and over 10 years of surf instruction, and is a certified open-water lifeguard by the Costa Rican Lifeguard Association.

Travis has a deep love and respect for the ocean, and his instruction very clearly encompasses that.

He also possesses a fantastic ability to get people laughing with his silliness, showing that he most definitely does not take himself too seriously. However, he also inspires confidence; he gives students the tools they need to exceed their own expectations in the water.

Pilar was originally drawn to yoga through her fascination with anatomy of the body, movement, and exercise, and the mysteries of the conscious and unconscious mind.

In 1999, she received her first teacher training at the Kapoli Yoga Center in Escazu, Costa Rica, which was followed by a second teacher certification from the YogaWorks program.

In 2014, her devotion to her own practice led her to Mysore, India, where she studied at the Krishna Patthabi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute.

Most recently in 2017, she did a teacher training in Tulum, Mexico with Tim Miller. Pilar has a dedicated personal yoga practice which is based in the Ashtanga Yoga method.

Pilar teaches Vinyasa Flow for all levels; her students enjoy her dynamic, uplifting, and invigorating teaching style, with her main intention focusing on alignment as well as keeping the mind and breath in the present moment.

Throughout her classes she weaves the elements of graceful movement, focus on personal intention, and enjoyment.

Pilar is fluent in both Spanish and English, and her teaching style is a marriage of the best of many worlds: Eastern yogic philosophies such as fluid breath and inner discovery; Western values of achieving personal goals; and Costa Rica’s light-hearted Pura Vida style.

Adrianne is the fun-seeker, socialite, and extrovert of bodhi, a fact obvious to all who come into contact with her. She relishes spending time with the bodhi guests, conversing, teaching, learning, and laughing.

Being a creative and linguistically-inclined individual, adrianne enjoys taking on the tasks of content creation: writing, editing, management of visual content generation.

She also loves to create in the kitchen, and has designed the menu and currently manages the bodhi kitchen.

Travel, reading, and surfing are probably the three biggest teachers that adrianne has ever had, and their presence in her life has undoubtedly altered its course (for the better!).

She is a board of directors member of the nonprofit geoporter, the creator of the b corp travel and tourism group, and a former panelist about tourism and responsible business at several conferences and speaking events.

Outside of work, adrianne is a cat mom, a people-lover, a champion for social and environmental justice, and a dance party queen.
