Home › Retreats › Doula Certification and Wellness Retreat in Costa Rica
Costa Rica · 7 days · From USD 2157
The days start with yoga and meditation in an open-air shala, then move into structured training sessions led by Moe and guest instructors. You'll learn the practical side of doula work: comfort measures, breathing techniques, postpartum support, and how to handle loss. A dedicated session on myo-fascial techniques with McKenna Anderson gives you hands-on skills for releasing tension during labor, and there's a CPR certification with an official provider.
Beyond the clinical, the retreat spends real time on the business of being a doula—marketing, client intake, contracts, pricing—so you leave with more than knowledge. Professional headshots with Destiny Goss are included, whether on the beach or in the garden, and there's a sisterhood circle where people share their own birth stories and challenges.
The retreat culminates in an all-white graduation ceremony led by ceremonialist Kira Buckley, with candlelight, vows, and music to mark your completion. The setting helps: the boutique resort is a one-minute walk from Playa Cocles, with tropical gardens, a private pool, and a yoga shala. Meals are provided for breakfast and lunch, with dinner left open so you can explore the local Caribbean restaurants just steps away.
