Finding Peace: A Yoga Retreat in Bali with CF Yoga Retreats at Villa Mandala Karangasem

I had the absolute pleasure of spending two incredible days capturing a yoga retreat hosted by Cassandra from CF Yoga Retreats, who traveled all the way from Boston to the stunning Villa Mandala in Karangasem, Bali. The retreat was a beautiful blend of mindfulness, movement, and the serene energy of the Balinese landscape. The villa itself, nestled by the ocean and surrounded by lush greenery, coconut trees everywhere., provided the perfect backdrop for each yoga session, allowing the participants to connect deeply with nature and themselves.

It was inspiring to see Cassandra guide her students through their practice with such care and passion. Each moment felt so genuine—from the early morning meditations by the sea to the sunset yoga flows that brought a sense of peace and relaxation to everyone present. Documenting these experiences was truly a joy, as the participants’ smiles, focus, and tranquility radiated through every frame.

This retreat was more than just a yoga getaway; it was a journey of self-discovery and connection, set in one of Bali’s most breathtaking locations. I feel honored to have been part of it and to capture the essence of this transformative experience.
