Flowers and Fire Yoga Garden & Seaside Yoga, Gili Air
Flowers and Fire offers two unique locations on Gili Air. Our Yoga Garden hosts classes, a café, accommodation, and a kids' area.
Seaside Yoga offers sunrise and sunset classes with breathtaking ocean views. Both locations host transformative workshops. I would like to announce a new birth to the world. It isn't due till towards the end of the year but it's going to be a big yoga centre baby (as in regular yoga centre!). Like all new things this is extremely terrifying but also very exciting. Connecting to the support of friends and community as I document the stages of bringing this centre to life, make it slightly less daunting. Hopefully this page will inspire ideas, suggestions and new contacts as well as promote the centre's development. My collaborators on this project are the amazing Ado Al'wahab and Jeremy Higgs. Without their help this dream would not have made the transition over to reality. We have already achieved a lot with land on the paradise island of Gili Air and the build underway. With other collaborators coming on board to support financing, build supervision and design I have learned that it takes a community to coax a centre out from the perfect idyll of mind dreams to the sometimes turbulent terrain of material worlds. Please join us in this middle kingdom of cyber space to hold our virtual hands as our idea seed blossoms and materializes.

Join us for our Tension and Trauma Release Workshop at Flowers and Fire Yoga Garden
Thursday 13th November : 1.30 pm - 2.45 pm
In this Tension and Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) workshop combined with Yin yoga, our focus will be on the hips, where we tend to store emotions, traumas, and tension. TRE safely triggers a natural reflex that causes shaking or vibrating, releasing muscular tension and stored emotions or traumas, thereby calming the nervous system. By activating this shaking response in a safe and controlled setting, the body is guided towards restoring balance.

Gili Air is known for its turquoise waters, white sand, and slower pace of life, the kind of place where days naturally soften and time feels different.
At Flowers and Fire Yoga, we’re grateful to call this island home. Our yoga studios, garden café, and community spaces are all part of the rhythm of Gili Air living.
If you’re planning your visit to Gili Air, step into our garden and join us for yoga by the sea.

The Name
The name flowers and fire came to me during a meditation. I was in India at the time, intent on my morning practice, when a vision of a flaming Shiva and white flowers floating through the air came to me. It was an image of momentous power and delicate beauty.
I’ve reflected on their meaning a lot since then and espoused on the significance of the two as they manifest alone and together
When looking to name the centre here on Gili Air the memory of the meditation came to me. Flowers and fire are at the centre of Hindu offering and ritual, everywhere you go in Bali you see little baskets with flowers and burning incense laid out for the gods. It seemed an appropriate honoring of yoga’s cultural origins while the simple form of the words laid on top of each other, makes an evocation of a vivid image, accessible to everyone.
The Philosophy
Our spiritual vision is to represent and convey the essence of yogic principle without getting stuck in dogma so illumination becomes available through a multitude of conceptual and physical vehicles and forms. Our belief is that it does not dilute or corrupt yoga by releasing attachment to concretized convention- rather it allows us to come closer to the heart and core of the numinous destination which yogic philosophy points us towards. ‘Be a light unto thyself’ Buddha’s last message to his disciples, has been echoed by seminal spiritual teachers throughout time. Whatever story it takes to illuminate the path within is valid if it has the capacity to bring you home to wholeness.
The Aim
We function with a vision for the larger whole rather then just for ourselves. In recognition of the wonderful opportunities that have allowed us to set up our centre in the region, we are committed to contributing to initiates that support the local community.
Our aim is to seed innate talents and support members of the larger community who have reduced access to development opportunities.
We’re exploring different ways to do this such as supporting existing educational initiatives in the region, promoting ethical pay structures and inspiring working conditions for our staff and providing a platform to support and develop local micro businesses and budding entrepreneurs, through product/skills development and the creation of an ethical marketplace for products, sold and promoted at the centre.
