“Yoga Heart: Bali Retreat” is not your typical destination yoga retreat. The yoga practices are the focus of your time away, and woven into your week you will have ample time each day for you to experience the culture and traditions of this exotic land, at your choosing.
Many people say that a daily yoga and meditation practice is very powerful and life-changing. This retreat is designed for all levels of practitioners, and with twice daily practices you will gradually become familiar with what feels right for you in building a regular practice of self-care. Our retreat center has all the necessary props, and we’ll use them all in our week together! The small group size and extended sessions allow for one-on-one guidance and assistance to refine your yoga practice. In addition to asana, we will also explore pranayama, meditation, and engage in reflection of balance integrated into our day.
Around this framework, you’ll have the knowledge and skill of Floating Leaf Retreat staff to show you the sights and sounds of Bali. You’ll have an entire “free day” mid week. Spend your free time as you like. Discover and learn about more excursions in Bali from the expert staff of Floating Leaf Retreat.

RETREAT DETAILS
This week-long retreat is a perfect way to discover the strength and power of a consistent, daily yoga practice. You’ll begin each day with a guided meditation that will set and reinforce the direction, or theme, for your time on retreat. Each time you step onto your mat, you’ll be expertly guided through physical postures – the hatha yoga practice – that will help you to embody your intentions and eventually bring you to a place of stillness and quiet in the mind, to integrate all your efforts. Don’t worry if you think 2 yoga classes each day is “a lot.” The morning practices will focus on building foundation: reviewing alignment, functional movement and basics. The afternoon practices will take the mornings into a more creative practice, integrating the basics into sequences and exploring different yoga styles. Each day builds on the previous day, eventually taking you to the pinnacle of our week together, discovering the importance of community, connection with Self, and connection with others.
Because this is your time for self-care, you can decide how much or how little to do in your free time. If you’d like to explore the magic of Bali, you can partake in the excursions that are included in your retreat fee, and add any other optional excursions that pique your interest. When you want to rest, you have the quiet beauty of our retreat center, Bali Floating Leaf Retreat, to support you. Take a swim, indulge in a Balinese massage, meet with an insightful Balinese healer.
When the retreat ends, you will have learned skills refined in a week of yoga exploration, as well as return home more grounded, grateful, and rejuvenated.
You’ll take home the memories of the colorful, rich culture of Bali and the warmth and hospitality of Bali Floating Leaf Retreat.

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.
