Details

This retreat is about you. About rediscovering and reconnecting with yourself. ​A week to soften the edges, slow your breath, and remember how good it feels to be in your own company again. ​There will be space for both alone time and socialising with your fellow retreat-goers. This is the sort of environment where you can let your guard down and connect beyond the superficial. ​​​​​You’ll move your body with kindness, eat nourishing food that feels like care, and spend long unhurried moments doing as little or as much as you want (without guilt).​​ ​Our setting will be in the non-touristy mountains of central Bali: waterfalls, rice terraces, mountain breezes, and the kind of beauty that reminds you to be still and take it all in. When you step into a new environment — away from the familiar routines and responsibilities — something shifts. You become more open. More curious. More willing to try, to play, and to gently rewrite the old stories about what you can and can’t do. Throughout the week, you’ll be guided through yoga, breathwork, and meditation practices that honour your unique body and mind — no pressure to perform, no “right” way to be.​ ​With a balance of free time and scheduled activities, you’ll rediscover that quieter part of yourself — the one that doesn’t rush, strive, or compare.

The vibe will be a group of friends gathered around the long table to share meals and stories. Served buffet style, there will be both Indonesian and Western style meals. The venue uses their home-grown, fresh organic fruits, herbs & vegetables, to ensure the highest quality of nutrition, taste and freshness.

Schedule

Each day will begin with active (but mostly pretty gentle) yoga and meditation in our open-air yoga shala in the garden. On some mornings, there will be a workshop after breakfast. On other days there will be offsite excursions. There will be plenty of free time in the afternoons. You might choose to relax by the pool, take a nap, or wander around the property’s garden or nature trail beside the rice paddies. There will be time for each person to get a massage during the retreat. On most late afternoons, we will hold a quieter, gentler yoga practice such as Yin or Restorative Yoga. After dinner, we will close our day with a workshop on topics such as breathwork and meditation. Remember that everything on the program is optional. This is your retreat, so we understand that on some days you might prefer to sleep in, lose yourself in a great book or laze by the pool.

Testimonials

info

The Santosha Bali yoga retreat exceeded all expectations and I came away with a greater sense of calm, resilience and happiness. Dani's thoughtful planning made each session meaningful and provided a balance of yoga, meditation, Balinese activities and free time. Dani and Lyn's gentle and wise instruction meant every session provided renewal for body and mind, and left me feeling amazing.

Julie C, Australia

Dani and Lyn took care of everything which resulted in a truly wholesome experience where all the stresses of life faded away allowing me to enjoy time for yoga, self reflection and meditation. I gained some beautiful friendships and left a better person.

Julie G, Australia

The Santosha yoga retreat in Bali was truly superb. We were led through an exceptional program by Danielle and Lyn that combined yoga practice, yoga philosophy, meditations and personal reflection, while enjoying the gorgeous surrounds and delicious meals. Practising yoga from within the soaring bamboo arches of the yoga shala was awesome. The group excursions and local experiences allowed us to learn more about each other as well as Balinese culture. Danielle's program was so well-balanced and intricately designed, we all flowed through it without fully realising the breadth and depth of these experiences--and how they overlapped, helping to grow our mental and physical resilience and lift our hearts. Thank you so much!

LA, Australia

Well organised, professionally orchestrated retreat in a beautiful setting and location. Thanks Dani; your professionalism and heart show clearly your passion for offering Yoga retreats, and giving people the capacity to rest and learn from the teachings, thank you.
