The Body-Mind-Soul Center provides an ideal environment for learning and a practice process, where yoga teacher training courses are presented and practiced in-depth.

The Body-Mind-Soul Center is an RYS 300 registered school with Yoga Alliance and is honored to collaborate with teachers from wonderfully diverse and experienced backgrounds.

The aim is to apply the teachings and practices of the yoga tradition to go on an exploration to investigate the relationship of your body, mind, and soul. Ultimately to gain clarity, to understand your nature, to create harmony between you and others, and to experience freedom and joy.

In-person training: Suly Center Bali

Welcome to Suly, where tradition and ecology unite for a brighter future. Set amongst beautiful Balinese rice fields and lush greenery, Suly Center offers its guests peace and tranquillity with a truly authentic ancient Balinese vibe spread over a wide-ranging area.

It is a 1-hour drive from the Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Denpasar and a 10-minute drive from the Ubud Monkey Forest and nearby places like hospitals, clinics, restaurants, museums, and art galleries. Suly Center is happy to welcome you and to organize the airport transfer (around 20 EUR).

Ubud

Ubud is Bali’s prominent art center, famous for its painter’s community. But Ubud is special in more ways than one. You will find emerald green rice fields in the stunning central Balinese foothills, the village also used to be the center for medicinal sources.

It has its own magic, and its particularly beautiful surroundings and gracious way of life have drawn travelers and artists from all over the world in recent decades; some have even adopted Ubud as their own home.

The magic is easy to find – just take a walk south of the village through its terraced paddy fields to the monkey forest. Freshwater spouts out of the sheer rock at the base of the ravine, and a bath in a secluded, shady spot is purifying.
