Yoga in Bali
We are very excited about this trip. People often ask us “what is your favorite trip?” In truth, we do not have one, as we LOVE all the places and people where we go. However ….. Bali is special. The people are special. The food is amazing. The culture, the scenery, the islands … AND, this Bali trip seems to keep getting better and better, as we gain experience in finding the best places and hotels.
This will be our sixth yoga retreat to the magical land of Bali, Indonesia. The Balinese people truly touched our heart on our visits in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2019 and 2023. Spirit, artistry, kindness and balanced feminine and masculine energy are infused into every aspect of life there. Bali may well be the yoga retreat capital of the world, and we have found the most awesome way to explore Bali!
We will have three trips in one really, with two nights in the nice beach town of Sanur, a nice place to land, ground, settle in. Then we have three nights on the tiny island of Gili Meno (no motorized transport like cars!), a couple hour boat ride off of Bali, for snorkeling, beach, yoga and chill time. We finish with 5 nights at the incredible Bingin Beach Retreat Center (pic above) in the soutern beach area of Bali.
“I wanted to thank you and let you know what a beautiful, wonderful, inspiring experience you gave me. My husband noticed something different about me and said I was zenned out, and I do feel a subtle shift for the good. I signed up for a vacation with a side of yoga but came home with so much more. I think my heart has more of a voice now in what I think and do, and I want to work to keep it this way. You and Liz are truly gifts. Thank you so much for sharing your kind souls with our group and with me.”
Theme: Balancing Our Energy
We will have a theme of Balancing our energy and life: body and spirit, masculine and feminine, balanced eating and drinking, work and play, speaking and listening ….
Accommodations and Travel Plan
We will be staying in three different retreat centers on this trip, all wonderful. After our first two nights in Sanur, we take a boat ride to the tiny island of Gili Meno and stay at the rustic and relaxing MaoMeno yoga retreat center for three nights. We do yoga right on the property in their yoga shala. Gili Meno Island has ZERO motorized vehicles, very quiet and relaxing, and GREAT white sand beaches to soak sun, swim and snorkel with turtles. We will also include a private boat snorkel trip to the best snorkel spots and best beaches. Breakfasts included every day of the trip, as well as 5 dinners.
Back on the main island of Bali, we will also take a day trip to Ubud, the art, yoga and spiritual center made famous by the book and movie, Eat, Pray, Love. We will experience a water cleansing ritual at Tirta Empul Temple and Pools, then visit the Monkey Forest, taste local dishes, and shop for amazing local goodies.
Bingin Beach Retreat Center is where we stay for the last five nights near the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean, and they also have a beautiful swimming pool, and an incredible yoga space, overlooking the pool, for our yoga with Roy and Liz. This part of the trip includes 2 meals a day for the 5 days — delicious healthy food, juices, coffee, tea, etc. Our group will bring a maximum of 15-20 people. The food at our hotel is organic and much of it right out of the garden, and they are meticulous about healthy details. Note: We ask that we refrain from alcohol at our retreat center stays (moderate drinking offsite okay), to maintain a sacred space for our yoga practice. Thank you for understanding.

The retreat was exactly what I needed. A beautiful blend of yoga, spiritual, fellowship, cultural, fun, rest and relaxation. The deep spiritual work changed me. I am in greater touch with me and actually taking steps to shift my life more in line with my authentic self. I appreciate the opportunity to become a Oneness Blessing giver. I receive so much joy from giving blessings. Roy and Liz are the perfect guides!
