Hello Yogis, Yoginis and Friends of The Yoga Barn,
You may have heard that
Mount Agung - a volcano in the East of Bali - erupted on November 26, sending ash and steam up to 3000 meters in the atmosphere. Bali's airport is temporarily closed and flying conditions will be re-evaluated every 6 hours. If you want to keep up with latest news and developments, you can refer to
this article. As of the writing of this email, Ubud is still unaffected and The Yoga Barn is operating with usual hours.
Renovations are now complete!
We are excited to share that renovations of the Garden Kafe and upper studios are now complete. Studio Wayan and Studio Made now both face south and have bigger capacity for classes and workshops. The Garden Kafe has a brand new deck with more seating spaces and a big roof for reliable rain cover. We will have photos and more details to share on social media so keep an eye on our channels.

The ancient wisdom of yoga teaches that Life is already given to you, you are completely loved as you are here now. The universe comes perfectly, and is awesome in its integration and infinite existence. When you experience this connection to the fullness of creation, of nurturing source, you are doing your Yoga. Yoga is your direct participation in nurturing source. All of us at Heart of Yoga are committed to broadening this message: you are fully loved, you are fully able, you are perfectly capable the way you are. We strive to teach the healing power of intimate connection, in the traditions of 10,000 years, recaptured for our era.
