Our Story & Philosophy
Tucked deep within the lush, tropical canopy of the Bukit Peninsula, our boutique resort offers an intimate sanctuary just a short, scenic walk from the iconic breaks of Padang Padang Beach. We have deliberately built our entire retreat experience around a seamless integration of technical surf coaching, traditional yoga philosophy, and modern sports recovery—creating a balanced, immersive environment that nurtures both physical capability and mental clarity.
A week spent at our resort is explicitly structured to deliver concrete, practical skills and actionable techniques rather than just a fleeting holiday escape. We provide you with foundational physical and mindfulness frameworks that you can integrate directly into your daily routine long after your time in Bali comes to an end. To explore the exact layout of our weekly training schedules, view our comprehensive retreat programme.
The foundation of our coaching methodology relies heavily on deep, individualized attention. Our world-class training team shuns rigid, mass-market scripts in favor of dynamic programming that adapts in real-time to the unique experience levels, energy, and physical goals of the guests present.
Meet Captain Bingo (ERYT500)
As our core wellness leader and head yoga instructor, Captain Bingo (ERYT500) lives by a simple, grounding philosophy: take the joy of nonsense seriously.
Bingo balances more than 30 years of elite international yoga teaching experience with an absolute, lifelong dedication to surfing the world’s most demanding breaks[cite: 1, 2]. Over his decades of instruction, he has meticulously refined a singular teaching methodology that directly bridges the gap between structured physical discipline and lighthearted, creative play[cite: 1].
Having deeply immersed himself in an expansive array of classical yoga lineages, martial arts, and functional movement modalities, Captain Bingo provides an organic style entirely his own. His classes fiercely champion self-guided exploration, body awareness, and an empowering willingness to color outside the traditional lines of static movement[cite: 3].
Deeply inspired by natural systems and ocean fluid dynamics, Bingo views the sea as his absolute primary mentor. He masterfully translates the raw lessons of wave tracking, patience, and fluid adaptation directly into his studio alignment sessions.
Having successfully anchored elite training programs, workshops, and wellness retreats across multiple continents, his daily classes consistently leave guests feeling profoundly physically integrated, mentally re-centered, and deeply in tune with their surroundings.
