The Present Yoga

There were many reasons my friend and I chose this yoga retreat, including the length of stay, the budget and the beautiful location. Before we booked, Ricardo answered all our questions promptly and made us feel truly welcome. We were even able to stay an extra day before the retreat began, which allowed us to enjoy a short trip to East Bali together.

The accommodation is located 10 minutes away from Central Ubud and offers a 24-hour reception and a shuttle service between the accommodation and a central Ubud. It is a beautiful facility. I really enjoy the yoga hut, spa and the food. Ricardo our yoga Instructor is incredibly knowledgeable and attentive. He led us with a truly holistic approach and the program was full of wonderful experiences that went far beyond my expectations. Ricardo took us to charming local restaurants and a cafes for lunch and dinner, arranged a special yoga session at the Yoga Barn(fly-high yoga),and guided us through a meaningful spiritual experience at the water temple. It was a real privilege to meet so many lovely people and to have a cultural experience through Ricardo’s warm hospitality.

Riccardo and Ayumi offered a great tailored experience for us that blended yoga with medication and cultural experiences. They were very attentive to our needs and expressed genuine concern to make sure that our experience was positive.

Riccardo is an excellent yoga teacher who kindly pushed us to extend our reach and brought the group together successfully. Ayumi is a charming host and her careful preparation behind the scenes made for a seamless experience.

We would happy do this retreat again and extend our learning with them.

De ontvangst was leuk en we begonnen met een heerlijke massage in een 5 sterren hotel.

De yoga lessen zijn ook heerlijk en de klankschaal sessie geweldig.

Tijdens de lessen was er ook een live optreden van Cellomano.

Mijn ervaring is dat je hierdoor tot rust komt en verder nog hele mooie excursies om de cultuur en de natuur van Bali te ontdekken.

Zeker een aanrader voor diegene die met Yoga in contact wil komen en ook nog van Bali wat wil zien.

Alles is perfect geregeld.

In een van de meest betoverende locaties boden Ricardo en Yummi ons een week vol ervaringen en verbondenheid. Dankzij een breed scala aan activiteiten vloog de tijd om. De positieve groepsdynamiek maakte het delen van ervaringen bijzonder aangenaam, en er werd volop gelachen. De flexibiliteit van Ricardo en Yummi zorgde voor een verrijkende ervaring, zowel voor de groep als voor ieder individu. Dank jullie wel.

Had a wonderful experience on the yogaretreat with Ricardo and Ayumi

Everything was well organised and they were very involved (I had a little accident during the retreat , they took great care of me)

The hotels , the yogalessons and the excursions were absolutely great!

Well done!

First time in Bali, and what a fantastic way to start our holiday with this retreat. It gave us a great opportunity to learn the culture, to see some breathtaking places, to ask so many questions about Bali, to practice yoga in magical place. Ricardo is very knowledgeable, accommodating and a fantastic yoga teacher. He has a calming energy and he made us very comfortable and engaged during this retreat.

Ayumi is also super-lovely and sweet, her energy is radiant and the combination of them two makes your heart melt.

The only downside is that I wish we spent more time. But then - gives us an opportunity to come back and do a longer retreat- and it will be with Ricardo and Ayumi without a doubt!

Het programma is zeer gevarieerd, je komt op hele mooie locaties.

De yoga lessen zijn zeer goed gegeven en verzorgd.

Er is veel variatie in de yoga lessen o.a Hatha,Vinyasa,Asthanga,Yin,Bikram en Higt Fly yoga.

Ook de massage was perfect en het vervoer is goed geregeld.

In overleg is er veel mogelijk.

Het is een super vakantie, het geld dubbel en dwars waard!!!
