About your tour leaders…
Jill Dailey
Founder of The Dailey Method
Jill is a true innovator of the dance barre fitness revolution on the West Coast. A degreed Kinesiologist, Jill opened The Dailey Method in 2000 and an explosive community was born. Her goal has always been improving the lives of those she teaches. Finding inspiration from the human body and movement, two mantras (and hashtags) that can often be seen in Jill’s Instagram feed are 1) #alwaysbeastudent – Jill feels we can always continue to learn more and see things in a different way by taking classes and exposing ourselves to different different ideologies, etc. and 2) #livingadaileylife – which to Jill, means happy, enjoying life, having a community, eating healthy, loving to workout and enjoying time with family and friends. Living a Dailey Life is living a balanced life.
Costa Rica is a land of balance, making it the perfect place for Jill to host her retreat and bring the Dailey Method communities together!
