About the Retreat

This immersive holistic Bali retreat is an authentic journey into the spiritual heart of Balinese culture and wellness. Balitrees Retreats is a joint effort between the local ashram, Perguruan Seruling Dewata, and the villagers of Sesandan — offering guests a rare and genuine cultural immersion that goes far beyond the typical tourist experience. The retreat is designed for beginners seeking deep rest and transformation in a safe, supportive, and joyful environment.

The retreat practices traditional Balinese Watukaru Yoga, a style created by 13 yogis who gathered at the top of sacred Mount Watukaru in Bali. They combined the best elements of their diverse practices and created this unique form — one that places meditation and inner energy flow at its heart, believing that the physical practice of yoga is merely the preparation for deep meditative states and healing.
