Join us in Ubud at a luxury wellness retreat center nestled in the lush jungle of Ubud, where barefoot luxury meets deep transformation.

Set among vibrant rice fields and tropical greenery, this immersive retreat offers more than just a place to stay — it’s a space for connection, creativity, and renewal.

Enjoy world-class amenities including infinity pools with sweeping jungle views, a full-service Balinese spa, and organic farm-to-table meals crafted to nourish your body and elevate your spirit.

Beyond the training, you’ll experience the essence of Bali through daily yoga, sound healing, live music, and sacred ceremonies — all within a vibrant community designed to support your personal evolution.

Whether you’re soaking in a private plunge pool, meditating with the sunrise, or dancing barefoot under the stars, Soulshine Bali is the perfect place to reset, reconnect, and remember what truly matters.

CURRICULUM >>

Your days we be packed and exhausting in the most enriching way! You’ll be on your mat, off your mat and sharing feedback inside a new generation of connection and within a container of sacred space. Whew! Here is the scaffolding…

SEVEN DOORWAYS: THE KEST METHOD >>

Designed by Jonny Kest, this is the only training outside of his own where you will experience the complete toolset to unlocking the popular and soul-reaching Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga flow that we know as modern yogis. The best kept secret ( not to give too much away just yet.. ) is the simplicity, the union with meditation and the understanding that nothing stays the same.

ARCHITECTURE OF FLOW >>

Vinyasa Sequencing is everything. Learn the courage of catching the current! Create free-flowing Sun Salutations that have proven to be the recipe for inner silence. Embody the union of postures. Discover which poses support each other and propel your students into their own state of bliss! Learn the WHY and HOW.

TEACHING MASTERY >>

Beyond the technicality of a pristine yoga class, there is a way to return the student back to themselves. We will show you how to do this while maintaining personal equanimity and growth as a professional yoga teacher.

SELF-INQUIRY >>

Equanimity through Meditation and experiencing our own blind spots are just a couple of ways we will help you truly see reality as it is. A generous piece of this training leans on how you learn to free yourself from your old patterns and aversions. When you give yourself permission to evolve, it is impossible to keep to yourself!

Journaling + Group Discussion.
