Welcome to Destination Yoga
Your Path to Transformation
"I'm thrilled to welcome you to Destination Yoga, where we embark on a profound journey of self-discovery, well-being, and authentic Yoga practice. As the owner and lead teacher, I'm not only passionate about Yoga, but I'm also deeply committed to sharing its timeless wisdom with you."
- Josh Kramer (Destination Yoga Founder & Lead Teacher)
Whats Involved?
Your home for this 5 night all-inclusive retreat will be the breathtaking Uluwatu Surf Villas located in the beach paradise of Uluwatu, Bali.
Yoga will be the core of your retreat, but your days will be spent exploring Bali, swimming in the turquoise waters, and adventuring in the jungle to waterfalls and rice paddy fields. Bali is one of my favorite destinations, and you will fall in love with its people, landscapes, food, and lifestyle. This is your chance to tick Bali off your bucket list.
Each day will consist of two scheduled Yoga classes, one in the morning and one in the evening. We will also have plenty of opportunities for workshops, inversion playtime, lectures and more. The remaining time will be filled with beach time, adventures, excursions, and of course an amazing community of Yogis.
I wont provide you with an overly detailed itinerary, just know that you will have plenty of Yoga, incredible food, eye opening cultural experiences, new friends to call family, and memories to last a life time.
I cant wait for you to join me on your retreat!

We welcome all.
Everyone is welcome on this retreat. Regardless of your background, your age, or how "advanced" you think you are - you are welcome. We have had students in their teens and others in the 70's. My personal regret would be that you want to join, but decide not to because you think you aren't good enough or won't fit in. If you have any hesitations at all, please contact me directly. All that I ask is you are passionate about Yoga and spending time with and incredible group of people. Come join us!

Gene from our last Uluwatu Surf Villas retreat said..
I found Josh via the Alo Yoga app at the beginning of pandemic almost ~4 years ago and his quick and punchy workouts saved me as we went into lockdown. Fast forward to 2023 as I was plotting my sabbatical - my partner shared Josh was planning a Bali Yoga retreat and I jumped on the opportunity immediately. I was always an on/off beginner yoga practitioner and ultimately arrived at: why not immerse myself and take my practice to the next level, amongst a stunning Uluwatu backdrop?
The ~week long retreat was the ideal mixture of AM sessions, afternoon deep dives and sometimes a chill evening of Yin under the stars. Continuing to get out of my comfort zone, I managed to squeeze in a surf lesson with some friends I made, conquering my lifelong fear of surfing. The Uluwatu Surf Villa meals were delicious, healthy and abundant and a perfect way to get to know your yogamates when you're not lounging by your own villa plunge pool. We even enjoyed a few sundowners together.
I had no preconceived notions of what to expect - I arrived with an open-mind and left with an even bigger open heart for yoga, Josh and Ali. For this advertising sales exec, obsessed with solving commercial growth problems, it was the personal growth experience I needed and exactly what the doctor ordered. Oh and I may have left with some solid headstand skills.

Ali Jane
Retreat Coordinator
Ali is an art loving creative. She grew up in Northern California and loves the outdoors, photography, art and of course Yoga.
She has been practicing Yoga since she was a child alongside her dad, and has a natural passion and knowledge around the subject.
Ali is Josh's partner, and she completed his Yoga Teacher Training in Costa Rica and is now gaining experience as a Teacher.
Here's what past students say...
I had the most amazing time during my 200h YTT with Josh, Guido and Tess, who are not only the best teachers you could wish for, but also have become wonderful friends! Together with 14 other like-minded and incredibly fun students we spent 16 days in between the vineyards of beautiful Tuscany practicing yoga, discussing philosophy, teaching our own classes, but also indulging in the Italian dolce vita with delicious food (pizza night!), wine tastings and the most beautiful Tuscan sunsets. Due to the small group size, each and every one of us was individually challenged and supported, so that I did not only improve my personal practice tremendously, but also feel genuinely confident teaching yoga classes now. I'm beyond grateful for Josh, Tess and Guido sharing all their knowledge with us and can't wait to do my 300h YTT with them!
