Bali Balance Retreat
October 22 - October 31, 2025
with Leslie Evans & Radiant Yoga
Inspired by the journey of Eat, Pray, Love, Bali Balance is a wellness retreat for those seeking the sweet spot between indulgence and intention.
Just like Elizabeth Gilbert, who found her “in-between” in the heart of Ubud, we’re not here for extremes — we’re here for balance. The kind that lives between sunrise yoga and sunsets at a beach club, between nourishing meals and celebratory dinners, between stillness and adventure.
Set against Bali’s rich tapestry of contrasts — from the jungle calm of Ubud to the vibrant energy of Canggu — this retreat blends movement, wellness, and cultural immersion with exploration, connection, and just the right amount of adventure. Think: puppy yoga, sacred temple cleansing ceremonies, ATV rides through waterfalls, private spa rituals, jamu-making, breathwork, and sound healing. All wrapped in community, care, and a thoughtfully curated experience designed to help you find your own version of balance. Join Leslie Evans & Radiant Yoga for a trip of a lifetime.
Inclusions
Each day is thoughtfully filled with movement, exploration, cultural connection, and feel-good wellness experiences.

Trip Overview
October 22 | Arrive in Ubud
Upon arrival in Ubud, we'll settle into our villa, convene with the group, enjoy a presentation, relish a catered Balinese dinner, and unwind with an evening flow.
October 23 | Jetlag Recovery
We’ll begin Bali Balance with a day devoted to recovery and grounding. Gentle yoga, massages, IV therapy by the pool, contrast therapy spa, a healthy lunch, and evening sound healing at a healing center.
October 24 | Untamed Ubud
Get ready to explore Ubud from a whole new perspective — by ATV. We’ll ride through lush jungle, hidden caves, and even waterfalls. After the adventure, we’ll wind down with drinks and downtime at a stunning pool club.
October 25 | Sacred Journeys
We’ll start the day flowing at the world-renowned Yoga Barn, then head off the beaten path to visit a hidden monkey forest. From there, we’ll experience a sacred water temple cleansing — a traditional Balinese ritual to refresh the body and spirit.
October 26 | Visit Canggu
We’ll spend the day immersed in luxury at a wellness sanctuary in Canggu, indulging in rest, rituals, and relaxation. As the sun sets, we’ll gather for a beachfront dinner at one of Canggu’s iconic beach clubs — the perfect close to a day of intentional ease.
October 27 | Roots & Rituals
We’ll dive into the flavors and healing traditions of Bali, learning how to craft jamu — the island’s ancient herbal tonic once reserved for royalty. Then, we’ll step into the kitchen for a hands-on cooking class at a five-star restaurant, where Balinese cuisine meets modern luxury.
October 28 | Fire & Flow
We’ll begin the day with an energizing vinyasa flow with guest teacher Anne Marie Kramer at an Ubud Studio, followed by a transformative somatic breathwork workshop to deepen the mind-body connection. In the afternoon, we’ll unwind at a private wellness sanctuary featuring a traditional Hammam experience led by a skilled steam master — the ultimate reset for body and spirit.
October 29 | Bali Beach day
We’ll set sail for the island paradise of Nusa Lembongan, where the day unfolds with paddle boarding on crystal-clear waters, ocean-view contrast therapy, and plenty of time to simply relax and soak in island life.
October 30 | Reflect & Renew
Our final day is all about rest, reflection, and renewal. We’ll start the morning with gentle puppy yoga (yes, it’s as joyful as it sounds), followed by a nourishing group brunch. The afternoon is yours to unwind with massages and IV drips, giving your body the recovery it deserves. In the evening, we’ll come together for a final group dinner — sharing memories, laughter, and gratitude before heading home refreshed, inspired, and full of love.
October 31 | Goodbyes
Before departing, we'll enjoy a final breakfast and partake in a vinyasa flow session before check-out.

Know Before You Go
A retreat like no other, in a place like no other.
Bali is an island of contrasts — where peaceful jungle temples sit alongside buzzing scooters, and barefoot beach clubs live in harmony with sacred ceremonies and incense-filled offerings. While your retreat experience has been carefully curated to reflect elevated comfort and care, it's important to know: Bali is a developing country.
And a developing country is just that — developing.
This means you'll likely encounter things you wouldn't back home: construction (a lot of it), stray dogs and cats, potholes, burning trash, and unpredictable traffic. Infrastructure is limited in many parts of the island, but these imperfect details are simply part of daily life here. They're not meant to deter — just to prepare. We believe they add texture and realness to the experience.
Wi-Fi & digital expectations:
Yes, there are beautiful cafes and five-star resorts with great Wi-Fi. But “super-sonic speed” internet hasn’t made its way to every part of Bali. Like much of the island, Wi-Fi here operates on its own version of island time — which we take as a gentle nudge to unplug and be present.
Island Rhythms
Expect the unexpected. From sunrise roosters and scooter hums to sudden ceremonies that pause traffic, Bali has a rhythm all its own — one that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and let go of needing everything to be perfectly polished.
The people, the pace, and the presence.
The Balinese people are some of the kindest you’ll ever meet, making on average 3,000,000 IDR (about $200 USD) a month. Gratitude and karma are woven into every interaction. Bali is a deeply spiritual place, and a special one. While it may not be polished like Dubai, there’s a reason Bali is a yoga mecca. It calls us to be humble, shed our ego, be grateful, and return to the basics.
We believe in transparency, and this retreat is intentionally designed with a certain type of traveler in mind — one who values connection over perfection, presence over performance, and soul over spectacle.
This Retreat Is NOT For You If…
You’re looking for five-star resort service, 24/7 butler staff, and luxury in the traditional Western sense.
You’re uncomfortable with unfamiliar sights, smells, sounds, or the raw edges of a developing country.
You expect absolute silence and total control of your environment — Bali hums with life, from morning roosters to spontaneous ceremonies in the street.
You struggle with going with the flow — island time is a real thing, and flexibility is key.
You’re not open to cultural differences, spiritual perspectives, or stepping outside your comfort zone.
This Retreat IS for you if:
You’re craving a shift — emotionally, mentally, or spiritually — and are ready to step out of your comfort zone (but feel more comfortable doing it in a supportive group setting).
You’ve always wanted to experience a culture completely different from home — one that’s grounded in ritual, spirituality, and community.
You want to connect with likeminded yogis and conscious travelers — people who value growth, movement, and meaningful conversation.
You’re seeking a deeper understanding of balance — not just in your body, but in your life.
You’re open to the kind of beauty that isn’t always polished — but is always powerful.
You want to be taken care of, while still feeling free — no logistics, just space to breathe and be.
You’re ready for something unforgettable — something that will stay with you long after you return home.
We’ve designed Bali Balance to honor both the luxury you crave and the raw beauty that makes this island unforgettable. You’ll be held, nourished, and well taken care of — while also invited to experience Bali as it truly is: vibrant, soulful, and alive in every sense.
Come with curiosity. Leave with clarity.
