About this trip
Join us on the magical island of Bali at Soulshine Retreat Center for 7 nights of transformation.
Throughout this week, we'll dive into the deep inner and outer practices of yoga, dance parties, healthy, colorful and organic food, adventures, and more.
This retreat center is like no other. Founded and created by musician Michael Franti, this contemporary center inspired by Balinese culture and design will be our container for practice, contemplation, and release.
Soulshine is enshrined by rice fields, lush jungle, open air yoga shalas and the fantastic Soul Bar & Soul Kitchen serving up the most delicious organic food and beverages.
Our center is just 15 minutes from the center of Ubud and it's the perfect way to enjoy Bali -- just outside the bustle, but close enough for regular excursions and adventures.

FAQ
When will the retreat begin and end?
The retreat will begin with dinner on November 4th, 2023, and end with breakfast on November 11th.
What is the deposit, and is it refundable?
The deposit is $650, and is non-refundable and non-transferable. Read our cancellation policy.

Which airport should I fly into?
Bali’s airport is in Denpasar. It is about an hour from Bali Soulshine.
Which airline should it book with?
This will depend on your city of departure! Based on our learnings from covid-related cancellations in 2020 and 2021, we highly recommend booking directly with the airlines and choosing an airline that is offering refunds or flexible changes.
How long is the flight, and when should I plan to arrive and depart?
The length of the flight will depend on your departure city. From the US, it takes about one day to travel to Bali. Most flights go through either Taipei or Singapore. Plan your flights so you arrive no later than 3 pm on Saturday, November 4th. You can depart on November 11th—flights that depart after 3 pm are ideal. We highly recommend booking flights directly through the airlines and also getting travel insurnace!
How do I get to and from the airport?
We will work with Soulshine to coordinate transportation to and from the airport, as well as to and from Ubud throughout the week if you'd like. The transfer fees are not included in the retreat, because many students choose to travel on their own before or after the training.
Do I need a visa?
Currently, you can get a via upon arrival in Bali. Please be sure to check on this before booking to make sure the situation hasn't changed.
How do I exchange my money?
Currency exchange services are super easy to find in Bali. In addition, ATMs are widespread, and most credit and debit cards work in Bali. Check with your bank because many cards offer currency exchange withdrawals without a fee.
