YOGA AND SPANISH


Why not try yoga on a magical beach? Yoga has been found to aid the body immensely, improving muscle strength, circulation, and easing stress and tension while improving balance--a fantastic complement to surfing! Our yoga instructor, Whitney has been a practitioner of Yoga for over 15 years and teaches Vinyasa flow, an energetic form of yoga that will raise your pulse and limber you up. And the setting couldn't be better! Her open air studio has fresh ocean breezes and sea views. Combine these classes with your intensive courses and you will find an inner light to brighten your growing knowledge of Spanish. Each class is about 1hour and 15minutes long and can be arranged around your schedule
.

PREPARATION FOR THE DELE EXAM

The "Instituto Cervantes" only recognizes the DELE (Diploma for Spanish as a Foreign Language) as a certificate for foreign students that wish to study in Spanish universities and work in Spanish speaking countries. Normally, this course comprises 4 weeks of intensive study--2 weeks of normal study and 2 weeks of preparation for the exam itself. Teachers at our Spanish school are certified to prepare students to take and pass the DELE exam.


VOLUNTEER & ECOLOGIAL PROGRAM

 

Due to the socioeconomic needs from which much of the Ecuadorian population suffers (as in other Latin American countries), many communities have found themselves in need of seeking government and private help in order to maintain decent living conditions.
For this reason, MAR AZUL SPANISH SCHOOL, through the volunteer work of young people as well as adults around the world, collaborates with different local organizations to carry out projects that promote growth in developing sectors.

We can offer short or long term positions for all international volunteers. The communities surrounding Montanita offer a wide range of possibilities for volunteer work, the location of the volunteer communities depend of the necessities of the community, if there is not a program close to montañita, we have many options close to us, or in other places around Ecuador:
1. Teaching English in a community (or education area, in school for special kids)
2.Planting trees in the rain forest
3.Helping groups to organize their own tourism project
4.Ecological & Tourism Projects
5.Experimental Farm
6.Scientific Research
7.Working in Health-care
8.Helping in the marketing of local handicrafts or agricultural work
