Our Favourite Canggu Yoga Studio
Desa Seni
Jalan Subak Sari No.13, Canggu, Bali
Desa Seni is set in a spectacular tropical paradise that feels completely removed from the buzz of the streets of popular surf spot Canggu.
I first heard about Desa Seni back around 2010 when a teacher of mine in LA, Tara Judelle, decided to leave LA so she could live and teach there. Jane and I first visited in 2013 and have enjoyed the setting ever since.
Yoga at Desa Seni
They offer vinyasa, Hatha, restorative, Yin, and meditation classes.
Other Desa Seni Experiences
Not exclusively a yoga studio, Desa Seni is also a boutique resort dotted with original antique wooden homes, imported from the many islands of Indonesia. The property is scattered with gardens growing almost 80% of the produce used in their organic restaurant and they also work with local businesses to focus on bringing great meals direct from farm to table.
The Best Place for Sunrise Yoga in Canggu, Bali
Pererenan Beach Practice Space
Pererenan Beach, at the bottom of Jalan Pantal Pererenan
Just a one kilometre walk along the beach from Old Man’s (a popular spot to sit and have a drink as you watch the sunset in Canggu), past Echo Beach, you get to Pererenan Beach. Here you’ll find an amazing, semi-secret spot to practice yoga.
Where Jalan Pantal Pererenan meets the sea there is huge statue of Gajah Mina, an elephant-headed fish that is part of the local Hindu mythology.
It was erected in early 2017 to help draw tourists to Pererenan Beach, but so far it mostly seems to draw early-morning yogis. Around the base of the statue they have built a few areas of flat lava stone where you can unroll your mat and practice yoga with the waves crashing around you.
If you want to practice at sunrise, I hear you need to get down early to grab a spot. But, since I’m not much of a sunrise person, I came down during the day and was the only person practicing here. It’s the perfect spot if you want to do your own practice in a one-in-a-lifetime location.
Canggu Yoga Studios with Accommodation
Aside from the studios we visited, there are lots of other places you can go to practice yoga in Canggu, Bali.
Samadi Bali
Jalan Padang Linjong No. 39, Canggu, Bali
If you want to practice Asthanga Yoga in Canggu, Samadi Bali is the place — they lead morning Mysore practices daily.
They also offer Hatha, Yin, aerial, and restorative yoga. You can attend sessions in life coaching, chakra balancing, and craniosacral therapy, too. After yoga, make time to enjoy their property. It’s a lovely oasis and they have a cafe which serves delicious-looking vegetarian food.
Watch our yoga studio tour of Samadi.
In April 2018, Samadi opened a boutique hotel on their property, with 10 rooms, a great pool, and a sauna, all surrounded by lush tropical trees.
For the ultimate pampering retreat, spend 4 days in Canggu combining yoga with massage at this 4-day spa and yoga retreat at Samadi.
Pranava Yoga Canggu Bali
Jalan Pantai Berawa No. 37, Pelambingan, Tibubeneng, Bali
We heard great things about the teachers at Pranava, but didn’t get a chance to visit. They provide a variety of classes which are suitable for all levels of students.
Their teachers, the majority of whom are Balinese, observe and adjust your postures according to your capability, helping you to gain the maximum benefit from the practice by honouring your individual yoga journey. Styles include vinyasa, Hatha, and Anti-Gravity yoga.
The studio is located on the grounds of Matra Bali guesthouse, so you can stay there to create your own mini Canggu Bali yoga retreat.

Jalan Nelayan, Canggu, Bali, Indonesia
Serenity offers a wide variety of yoga with a full weekly schedule. They also have a hostel and guest house, offer massage, and have an alkaline raw vegan restaurant on site.
