This 10-day workshop with Emil is designed to introduce the practitioner, in the delightful mountain environment of Bali, to both a stimulating postural practice, and the magic which lies beyond the physical aspect of Yoga.

Participants will practice together between 6-7 hours a day in a combination of morning and evening classes.

Âsana, Prânâyâma, Kriyâ-Yoga and guided meditation are combined with a discourse in yoga philosophy and background information on the techniques involved. The course also offers an insight into rituals, Mudrâs and Mantras, and includes paying respect to the spiritual environment with a private ceremony in one of the temples and shrines near Ubud.

During the workshop period, at least one collective visit to a temple or shrine is included – the occasion depending on the Balinese festival-calendar.
Emil E. Wendel has been living in Asia since the mid-seventies, studying Indian thought as well as Chinese classical philosophy. His many years of residency in Nepal and India have brought about a passion for yoga, in particular the aspects of breath and meditation techniques in both the Buddhist and Hindu traditions. His courses offer a glimpse into the treasures of philosophy, and their application in daily life as yoga practice and ritual, all in the original context.

He is presently instructing in teacher training programs for Yoga Arts of Australia, for Brahmini Yoga and ShaktiSpirit of India, and for Radiantly Alive of the USA/Bali. When not in Nepal and India teaching, practicing and researching, Emil is conducting his own workshops and retreats in Europe, as well as in Bali, Singapore, Australia and Japan.
In the price included is the hotel accommodation at Ananda Cottages, Ubud-Bali. The Ananda is a beautiful hotel (s. website www.anandaubud.com) and has hosted the most prominent yoga workshops for very many years.
The extended brunch meals are plentiful, vegetarian, and served buffet-style.
Ubud and its surrounding villages offer a spectacular range of beauty, crafts and personal encounters. Bali is the Island of Gods – there are temples and ceremonies everywhere, everyday. For those who wish to explore the countryside during the time off, taxis are easily available with the hotel on request. Likewise, motor scooters are for rent nearby. For dinner, we suggest to explore the many restaurants in Ubud – apart from typical wholesome Indonesian food, a variety of delicious cuisines from around the world are found within easy reach. To soothe the hard-working body and mind, we recommend a Balinese-style massage, offered both in the hotel and in the many excellent parlors in town.
