Join Jamie Isaac for a week of mind, body and spirit allowing you to connect and centre, on location in Bali. Desa Seni is a beautiful eco village offering an authentic Indonesian experience through the exploration of culture, art, yoga, organic farming and complete wellness. It’s a perfect location for Jamie’s mind and body approach to the classical Pilates method.

The week is an opportunity to experience Pilates, with a focus on a fluid, mindful approach. Based in Canggu, the retreat location is in it’s own eco village made up of antique homes imported from different Indonesian islands, each with its own character. Desa Seni has a beautiful saltwater pool, on site restaurant and a wellness centre offering world class spa treatments. In our time there, we will have access to 2 open air classroom decks, one for the Pilates course and another offering open yoga and meditation classes twice daily.

Absolutely everything about this trip was inspiring. The open studio space alone, surrounded by lush gardens, and water falls would have made it for me, but with Jamie’s attentive and caring teaching, the really tasty meals, and the beaches with the surfers, the sun, the temples… I’m in heaven again, just thinking about it… – Michelle
