Yoga

Owner and wellness practitioner Jill Ruttenberg teaches a gentle style of Hatha yoga with emphasis on breath and being in the pose. Guest instructors follow a similar protocol tailored to the needs of the class. Both beginners and more advanced students feel comfortable practicing yoga at AmaTierra.

Cuisine

AmaTierra’s cuisine is healthy farm-to-table food with an emphasis on fresh fruits and vegetables, combining local flavors (mangos abound in spring/summer months) to make our cuisine a real treat for your tastebuds.

Meals are sumptuous and varied, with fresh farm eggs (we have our own chickens) and greens from the Organic Gardens. Fresh fruit or vegetable smoothies are available as snacks and are part of every Detox Program as are medicinal teas created by the herbalist owner. Detox programs are individualized according to the needs and constitutions of our guests.

Accommodation

There are 10 spacious rooms at AmaTierra with 1-2 comfy queen-sized beds, TV/DVD player for movies (a library of over 300, and they’re free!), refrigerator/coffee maker, full bath with tub/shower and a sitting area outside where one can watch the birds and iguanas.
