JANUARY 6 - 11, 2020 | GAIA RETREAT CENTRE | UBUD, BALI
YOGA | STILLNESS | LIGHT
A 5 day / 5 night retreat in one of the most sought after locations for deepening your practice of Yoga.
Next year we are taking your retreat experience to the next level. As a way to welcome in the New Year, join Yoga Corner Founder Amy Leonard-King for a fully immersive experience in the beautiful + spiritually rich Ubud in Bali. We’ll dive deep into the practices of Yoga, Meditation, Ayurveda + Philosophical study as a way to fast-track your practice and ultimately how you experience life both on and off the mat.
Not simply a holiday with a bit of yoga thrown in, this new format retreat is condensed into a 5 day intensive at the stunning Gaia Retreat Centre (Ubud), such that the practices experienced are absorbed on the deepest level, as well as retained in cellular memory to take with you beyond your time spent away.
“If yoga is about life, this means ALL life, not just part of it. ”

Before midday we’ll reconvene for guided meditation practice, followed by a light lunch at the retreat centre. The afternoons can be spent relaxing by the pool or exploring a little further by foot or road into the Ubud town centre. Each day before sundown will commence a workshop style practice exploring specific themes, practices and philosophies, including alignment, the 8 limbs of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda, the Chakra System, and Advanced Asana.
Dinner will be onsite and enjoyed together, all meals offered being plant-based and vegan; a diet considered to be the best and most beneficial to our own health as well as the health of the planet, and in accordance with the Yogic philosophy + practice of ‘ahimsa’.
After dinner each evening, a Satsang will be held, joining together in meditation, mantra, philosophical discussion and Q&A in order to finish the day on the highest note of elevated thinking and being.
This retreat is for you if you are looking to dive a little deeper, in a short (and very sweet) space of time. The retreat allows for your trip away to be both incredibly rewarding and deeply transformative, as well as giving space either side of the 5 days for your own exploration of Ubud and it’s rich culture, history and spiritual abundance. All levels of experience are welcome.
