Prana Veda Yoga
At Prana Veda Bali we offer a 6-day Yoga program. As we are a small retreat centre, we are able to care for our guests individually.
From Monday to Saturday two Yoga and Meditation classes take place each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. We practice different styles of Yoga like Hatha, Vinyasa Flow, Yin & Restorative Yoga and different types of Meditations, such as water meditation in our Watsu pool, Yoga Nidra, Breathing meditation, Buddhist mindfulness meditation, dance meditation, candle meditation and silent meditation. In the morning, after we start our Yoga practice, with a silent meditation and different Pranayama (breathing) techniques.
Hatha Yoga is a comprehensive combination of physical postures, breathing techniques and meditation. The asanas stretch and strengthen your body. You hold postures, which gives you tor exploring the proper alignment for each pose. This gentle style helps you to harmonize the connection between body, breathing and mind.
In the Vinyasa class, the postures flow fluidly into one another. You glide from one posture to the next, harmonizing movement and breath. You develop strength and flexibility in a dynamic way and breathing and body awareness increase.
Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of Yoga in which postures are held for about 3 to 5 minutes, which stimulates the meridians, the energetic pathways of the body. Flexibility is improved since the deeper layers of connective tissue are addressed.
Restorative Yoga is similar to Yin Yoga. The postures are held in stillness supported by props and bolsters. The focus is on winding down and relaxing your mind.
Partner Yoga is a playful approach towards yoga that teaches how to connect with someone else, to support one another, to let go and to develop trust.

Prana Veda Yoga Program
Our Prana Veda Yoga program comprises six 1,5 hour sessions in the morning and six 1,5 hour sessions in the afternoon. The classes built up progressively.
On Sunday morning, we start with an introduction to Yoga and a gentle, slow Hatha Yoga class. We ask you to tell us about your Yoga experiences and your physical condition, so that we can get to know you better.
In the afternoon we introduce you to meditation followed by Yoga Nidra meditation practice.
On Monday, the focus is on the back. We start with an introduction to hanging belts from Iyengar Yoga with which you can experience a nice stretch of our spine and see the world upside down from a different perspective and practice Yoga asanas, which are beneficial for the back.
In the afternoon we have a floating meditation in our 35°C Watsu pool.
On Tuesday morning, we teach forward & backward bends.
In the afternoon, we practice Yin/Restorative Yoga followed by a heart or breath meditation.
On Wednesday, we offer a silent day to connect deeper with our innermost self. In our Yoga class, we concentrate on the hips with hip openers and twists.
In the afternoon we practice Yin/Restorative Yoga followed by a silent Meditation and share our experiences from the silent day.
On Thursday morning, we practice a slow Vinyasa Flow session.
