Dare to be Free
Rogue Yogi Re:Treat
Learn to Trust Yourself and Allow Your Spirit to Let Go in Bali – Dare to be Free
The Rogue Yogi
Yoga for the Real World
Join us from July 1-7 to experience yoga the way it was meant to be amid the wonderful people and culture of Bali. Appreciate 5-star luxury and an authentic connection to the island at Floating Leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat.
RETREAT DETAILS
In a world where achieving massive amounts of success and overworking ourselves seems to determine our self-worth, now is the time to debunk those concepts, get to the root of what makes us authentically happy and learn through the various components of yoga and meditation the life-long practice of becoming our best selves…by our own design.
During this week in Bali, I won’t ask you to “salute the sun” or become a vegan. This isn’t about making you change the essence of who you are in order to fit into the concept of what a “yogi” has to be. Your experience on the island includes learning a few things about the Balinese culture, being introduced (or re-introduced) to a few tools to calm your mind down when sh!t hits the fan, toning every part of your body, reducing random injuries and becoming so present to every aspect of your world so you can experience a richer quality of life.
I hope that with everything I lay out on the table you can find one thing (just one) that resonates with your way of thinking and apply it to the “real world” when you return home.
Practicing with me on the mat means there’s no “wrong” way to practice a pose. With the alignment-heavy verbiage in the yoga world, the focus on our time together is not on perfection. It is on progress, expanding our self-awareness, understanding the degrees of strength and the various ways to keep our bodies healthy. From the tendons to the muscles, the digestive system to the over-thinking mind that gets insight just from “being on vacation”.
The intention of the Rogue Yogi Re:Treat is to trust yourself, take care of yourself and allow your spirit to let go and be free wherever you go (as long as you practice).
Of course there will be plenty of yoga, but we’ll also go deep into the unique culture of Bali and experience Balinese rituals and ceremonies.

Below are a few helpful tips that we believe will make travel much more enjoyable.
1. Have your passport renewed. Regardless of the expiration date on your passport, it must not expire within 6 months of arriving, or you will not be allowed to depart the country
2. Purchase your Travelers’ Insurance and have proof ready to show upon arrival. This is for your own safety and precaution as well as a requirement of the retreat. You can use our suggested Travel Guard Insurance online, check to see if your credit card covers enough in the event of any kind of emergency, or shop around and choose from several policy options.
Note: If you decide to purchase through Travel Guard, it is an affiliate link (which means I’ll get a credit, but definitely at no extra cost to you).

ABOUT YOUR RETREAT LEADER
Practice Yoga without the Dogma. Dare to be Stronger. Move to your own Beat. Breathe at your own Rhythm. These are all things that Julie encourages you to do in life as a Rogue Yogi. As a former trauma survivor and a very clumsy human, she has collected a myriad of life lessons including those from the past decade of her yoga journey. From studying with Bryan Kest (founder of Power Yoga) having a brief stint at public speaking, leading hundreds of yoga and DJ community events along the Cali coast, leading several global wellness retreats, studying in India and traveling the world to see first-hand what’s going on with the yoga scene, she has dedicated her work to sharing her experiences with those that vibe with it. Her various teaching sessions have been featured in SF Gate, SF Weekly and LA Weekly.
Julie doesn’t believe that any single yoga style is THE way. There is no “one size fits all” when it comes to living your definition of peace, health and being the best version of yourself.

The Joy Professionals
Quick to smile and easy to laugh, the Balinese are experts at living a life of joy and fulfillment. They live in the moment, neither regretting past events nor vexing on what has yet to happen.
Perhaps nowhere else on Earth lives a better example of truly living in a joyful state than in Bali. Life here is interwoven with spirituality, delight in daily rituals and appreciation for all surrounding them.
We live, work, play and grow in harmony with our local community, the people of Sukawati village. Their support and encouragement for Floating Leaf was a driving force in our development and we involve the community in deciding exactly which philanthropic efforts will be of most help and interest to them.
Floating Leaf Eco-Retreat believes in full transparency. The “++” that you will see for all hotels in Bali, and throughout Asia, refers to a government mandatory tax and service charge. Please be aware of this when comparing prices as some retreats will not disclose this information and can inflate this charge up to 40% in hidden costs.
Our policy is to be open and upfront and explain that the “++” at Floating Leaf is the minimum additional 21%. Your non-refundable non-transferable deposit secures your spot on this Bali retreat. Please be sure to read our complete terms and conditions. Thank you and we look forward to welcoming you to Bali and Floating Leaf Eco-Luxury Retreat.

I just returned from my amazing trip to Bali. I stayed at the floating leaf for 8 nights and it was truly an exceptional experience. The staff were so loving and attentive. The food was wonderful! I enjoyed my daily practice in such a picturesque place!
I brought a group of women here and from the moment we all walked in we were pampered! Some of the women were coming to Bali for the first time and Floating Leaf made their experience delightful and memorable, and I am excited to bring another group back!
