← All Bali retreatsAbout this selection
Ubud is the undisputed centre of yoga in Bali — rice terraces, healing energy, and more retreat centres per square mile than anywhere on earth. Ubud has a strong Ashtanga lineage. The Mysore-style morning practice, the self-paced approach, and the direct teacher-student relationship of this tradition suit the retreat culture here particularly well. Twenty-one days in Ubud is a serious undertaking — and a seriously transformative one. The classical Panchakarma recommendation, the threshold at which neural pathways genuinely begin to rewire, and the length at which long-term practitioners describe fundamental change in their relationship to practice. July is one of Ubud's best months for retreat — Bali's climate is at its most conducive to outdoor practice, the crowds are manageable, and teachers report that groups arriving in July tend to go deeper than at other times of year. It's a popular booking month, so plan ahead.
