About Us

ALYA MEANS TO RISE, ASCEND, AND ELEVATE​

Alya Retreat Center was established in 2009 by Shlomo Eizencot in the beautiful north pacific coast of Costa Rica. Shlomo has worked tirelessly to develop the 19-acre property in harmony with nature. Alya is a place of serenity and simplicity, where one can connect to oneself and to nature. The vision for the Alya Retreat Center was inspired by Shlomo’s first Kundalini yoga class in Los Angeles. He learned one of the fundamentals of Kundalini yoga is that within each of us exists infinite wisdom. Connecting with your inner wisdom helps to release emotional, mental and spiritual limitations. Shlomo left the class a different person: a great energy within was awakened, his mind was relaxed and his heart was wide open. Shlomo was looking at his life and those around him with love, equality and clarity.

About shlomo

Shlomo is very grateful that a simple person like himself was given access to the Kundalini yoga technique and that he is able to practice and share it with others. Each Kundalini class after that gave Shlomo a wonderful gift of elevation – an elevated state of thinking and being. As he continued with his Kundalini Yoga practice, he eventually completed his teacher training and had the honor to teach at Yoga West where the founder, Yogi Bhajan, lived, practiced, and taught.

As fate would have it, Shlomo was led to Costa Rica to manifest a sacred space for people from all over the world to come and connect with their own inner wisdom, explore the many paths to healing and to nurture their bodies in the ultimate natural setting.

You are invited to Alya Retreat Center to be part of the experience that we are all longing for – freedom. ​

Satnam.
