📍Ubud, Bali
Join us for this transformational week, full of ashtanga yoga, meditation and nourishing food. Immerse yourself in the practice while being surrounded by breathtaking nature, in beautiful Bali.
4-10 October, 2024
Our goal is for beginner students as well as experienced practitioners to benefit from the retreat, ultimately guiding each practitioner into the heart of their potential. This week-long course is designed to comprehensively deepen your personal practice, while increasing your understanding and experience of yoga, both on and off the mat. We are keeping the space intimate with an expected group size of 10-15 people max.
Morning Mysore Practice: Mysore Style is the heart of Ashtanga Yoga. In the Mysore method, students are met as individuals. Each student practices at their own pace while the teachers are there to give them personalised support.
Theory & Interactive Workshops: Philosophy, History, Ayurveda, Asana Alignment, Abhyanga (Ayurvedic self-massage). Hip-opening, Back-bending and core/shoulder strengthening workshops will be a part of our week as well.
Daily meditation.
3 delicious meals everyday – vegetarian, using natural local produce.
Our peaceful location is surrounded by rice fields and breathtaking jungle. Just 10 mins away from Ubud center.
Silent morning time.
The location is a beautiful and cozy boutique hotel run by a balinese family 10 minutes from Ubud centre. It is accessible by a small road (only for walking or motorbikes), and thus there is no noisy traffic or crowds of people- ideal for your yoga practice. (Our lovely staff will assist you with your luggage from the main road).
As you step out of the gate you can enjoy beautiful nature walks. Along the small path you will find local artists with their amazing artwork, organic cafes, homemade goodies and lots of fresh coconuts! One gets a true feeling of local Balinese life, with their warm smiles accompanying you with every step.
In your free time you may relax by one of the swimming pools overlooking the rice fields, read a book from our little library or have a traditional balinese massage.
** All rooms have AC, except the “Private Room in Shared Villa” option. However, it has fans, which makes it quite comfortable.
