Bali Yoga Retreat in Ubud – A Sacred Journey of Renewal
September 12-17, 2027 (5 nights)
with Sally Mitchell, founder, leader and teacher of Body Flows Retreats

Immerse yourself in the spiritual heart of Ubud, Bali, where lush landscapes and sacred traditions create a sanctuary for body, mind, and soul. With daily yoga and meditation classes, curated excursions to Bali’s iconic rice terraces, serene waterfalls, and sacred temples, our retreat is designed for reflection, renewal, and awakening. Each experience invites you to reconnect with your inner vitality amidst the island’s timeless serenity and sacred energy.

Our retreat will be held at the gorgeous Balinese boutique hotel Gayatri Ubud, an art hotel where cultural heritage, lush-green tropical landscape, and sustainable, ethical, cruelty-free business practices meet, right in the heart of Ubud, Bali's capital of culture.

Your leader and teacher, Sally Mitchell, founder of Body Flows Retreats, spent 3 weeks living and traveling in Bali in July 2025 and was inspired to create and host a yoga retreat there after deeply connecting with the beautiful Balinese life and culture of gratitude, ritual and kindness.


There will be 2 yoga classes daily. The yoga classes will be mostly vinyasa flow yoga for all levels, linking movement with the breath for an energizing yet relaxing flow. With creative and balanced sequences, strengthening and lengthening, detoxing and pranayama, you will experience a strong, safe and supportive practice. Modifications and options will be provided for different abilities. You'll have the opportunity to play with some backbends, arm balances, and inversions if you choose, and cool down with some deep stretches to restore the body and mind. The evening classes will be yin yoga, with longer held seated and supine postures, stretching, lengthening, releasing tension and creating more space in deeper layers of connective tissues in the body. Yin yoga is also a perfect opportunity to journey inwards and practice meditation. Guided meditations will be led during many of the yoga classes.



"Sally offers a top notch yoga class no matter the venue. Her unique guided meditations / yoga asanas brings all levels of yoga together beautifully. The excursions were spectacular: boat cruise through the Loch, hikes, castle and whisky experience were first class. My husband and I have attended Body Flows Yoga Retreats for a couple of years now. We have found we can unplug from our busy professional lives and truly unwind, refocus, and retreat. Sally goes out of her way to make sure each attendee feels that special release." - Debbie T, Scotland Retreat, July 2024

"The Body Flows retreats are so much more than yoga in beautiful surroundings! They allow participants to fully emmerse themselves in the culture with optional day trips, and a delicious and healthy menu, which allows you to feed your body and soul!" - Jody L, Scotland Retreat, July 2024

From location, accommodations, excursions, menu, and environment, there is no question the amount of planning that Sally does to offer not only a yoga retreat but a cultural experience for all participants. I was blown away by my experience, and am already recruiting others to join me on another retreat in the future." - Melissa S, Scotland Retreat, July 2024

"Sally is an incredible leader and yoga teacher. The Body Flows experience brings one into a meditative space where healing and mindfulness become possible like never before. The carefully planned itinerary made the experience very meaningful. We were able to get out into the town and connect with locals, shop owners, and beautiful outdoor spaces. The entire experience from the local cuisine to the mindful meditation made this experience transformative and I truly hope to be able to experience it again at another amazing retreat!" - Ashley N, June 2025

"This was my second retreat with Sally and I cannot wait to book another! As with the first retreat, I felt so well cared for and free to relax, grow, and be me. The attention to detail is outstanding and leaves room to fully enjoy the experience. I met so many wonderful new friends and was able to reconnect with some from the first. The positive energy of all is so lovely and I left feeling great. Retreat #3, here I come!" - Meaghan J, October 2025
