Join Hip Expressions as we invite you to explore more deeply your inner dancer... by stepping away from your every day life, and immersing yourself into the vibes of music and dance. Here in the natural beauty of the landscape, through the nourishment of the ocean, you can cultivate a deeper connection to yourself, your dance, your 'why'. Come listen to the silent whisper of your heart, and let it express your soul through your dance.
Strengthen your body and calm your mind through daily yoga, align yourself with confidence through dance practices, and allow your soul to re-set through excursions deep into nature. This retreat is an invitation to incorporate all the elements, senses and re-set into your natural rhythm. With plenty of time to rest between practices, you'll leave with greater love for yourself, your community, and your art.
Attune with a greater peace & understanding of your unique self, body, mind, and soul, in the quaint little yoga and surf town of Dominical, just steps to the South Pacific, in our private eco-retreat, Danyasa.
What's included:
- Ground Transportation from SJO International Airport to Danyasa

One of our favorite holidays to celebrate at Hip Expressions, Dia de los muertos, originating in Mexico, is a rare holiday that honors both life and death - exchanging mourning for celebration. We honor our past loved ones by sharing a meal with them, offering them marigolds, sugar skulls, and favorite food and drinks.
Calaveras (skulls) are ubiquitous during Day of the Dead. The skulls are often drawn with a smile - as if to laugh at death itself. They take many forms such as sugar candies, clay decorations, and most memorable: face painting!
As this is to honor our past loved ones, we'll be setting up an altar so they can share in the celebration. Please bring pictures of your past loved ones, favorite objects, or other representations to add to the altar!
The show will be spectacular! Epic performances by local and
visiting dancers will honor the joy and reverence of this
Holiday.
