SOUL612 RETREAT

April 12-17, 2024 in Costa Rica
​Dance, Fitness & Fun with Leslie Fhima

Soul612 Retreat

Leslie Fhima and Soul612 are headed back to Tamarindo, Costa Rica for an amazing retreat experience for any fitness level! Join Leslie and a group of like-minded dance and adventure enthusiasts for a truly unique getaway that will have you refreshed and rejuvenated!

Besides working out together each day, we will have many opportunities for exciting adventures, great food, fun night life, and much needed relaxation!

You will work out, laugh, eat, drink and form bonds that will last a lifetime!
​
Fitness:

We’ll be starting off each day with UrbanPop for 50 minutes followed by a 45 minute BarreFusion class. Throughout the retreat, Leslie will add in some scenic afternoon water / beach classes as well! All levels are welcome!

Adventure:
There's so much to do in beautiful Costa Rica, and on this retreat, we will be embarking on an adventure day such as an ATV or zip lining tour and a sailing trip on a catamaran (with snorkeling and open bar!). These activities are included but totally optional!

Relaxation:
Each day will balance activities with free time to relax, reflect, or go explore on your own or with the group. Our resort is right on the beach and also has a couple of pools (with swim-up bars!) so free time is yours to cherish! Other ideas are to get a massage, sign up for an extra activity like surfing or horseback riding, or exploring the town.

Meet Your Retreat Leader, Leslie Fhima

Fitness has always been a big part of my life. From opening a fitness studio to figure skating professionally to running 10 marathons, and more, I have enjoyed exploring different areas of the industry both personally and professionally.

For the past 35 years, I have taught classes and/or personal training clients almost daily. When the world changed during the Covid-19 pandemic, I launched a virtual business, Soul612, to be able to bring fitness to everyone from home. My focus is dance and barre, but my true passion is simply teaching: any age, any fitness format, any place!

I can’t wait for you to join me on my Soul612 Costa Rica Retreat!

The Accommodations

Our home for the retreat is the iconic Tamarindo Diria resort, located in the heart of Tamarindo, a coastal town known for surfing, sunsets, and low-key beach vibes. The stunning property has a boutique-y vibe with lush grounds, 4-star accommodations, and a friendly, welcoming staff. There are three pools, including two with swim-up bars, a tennis court, and massage services. Plus, being right on the beach means you'll waste no time between a fresh and delicious breakfast and soaking up the morning sunshine. The best part? While the property is relaxing and peaceful, you are steps away from a safe local town with plenty of restaurants, bars, and shops to explore - the perfect vacation balance with something for everyone!

Testimonials

"It was the best trip we have ever taken!" - Cathy + Gerard

"What a fun filled adventure with great exercise people food entertainment! How could you go wrong? After your work out, a breakfast buffet in the morning, then surfing, sailing, horseback riding, walks on the beach, and swimming in the ocean. Overall it was amazing. Everybody in our group was so nice and friendly, and we all had a great time." -

"This was my fourth retreat with Leslie (and first one planned by Ketanga), and I felt it was by far her best. You planned such good excursions for us. And everybody knew you and loved you and I felt that just because we were with your organization we were treated like VIPs. Thank you so much for planning such a wonderful vacation for us." - Denise

"My favorite part of the retreat was the great balance between scheduled activities and free time. [The workouts had] lots of variety; I really enjoyed the pool workouts. Leslie can lead in just about any activity!" - Julie
