Yoga Teacher Training in Bali Beyond the Mat
In the tranquil heart of Nusa Lembongan, Bali, Claire — founder of Akira Yoga with over 25 years of teaching experience — created The Yoga Garden, an open-air sanctuary for yoga, meditation, and holistic study. Rooted in depth, integrity, and embodied practice, Akira Yoga offers pathways for those seeking meaningful learning. The approach weaves Vinyasa, Yin Yoga, Chinese Medicine, Reiki, Ayurveda, Breathwork, and Meditation through in-person trainings, immersions, and ongoing study, with learning grounded in presence, clarity, and lived experience.
Set in the heart of Nusa Lembongan, The Yoga Garden is a lush, open-air yoga shala in Bali. A peaceful oasis away from traffic and distraction, it’s a space to breathe, learn and connect. Here, you’ll deepen your practice, grow within a supportive community and experience the quieter, more grounded side of Bali’s yoga culture.

Experience Yoga Teacher Trainings in Bali that move beyond the mat, blending accredited study with the gentle rhythm of island life. Each program unfolds with Bali’s nurturing energy, from daily breakfasts, shared lunches and evening restaurant excursions to Reiki sessions, massages and island adventures that support balance and vitality.
At the heart of the experience is community, laughter, connection and cultural appreciation.

With partner discounts, seamless transfers, nearby accommodation and continued post-training support, every detail is designed to nurture learning, belonging and joyful living.
Each element of our Yoga Teacher Trainings in Bali is designed to deepen learning while embracing the island’s natural rhythm.
