Asana & Meditation

Yogi Yansa

• Asana
• Meditation
• Balinese Spiritual Practice

Yogi Yansa teaches from within Balinese spiritual tradition, which gives his classes at Samadhi Yoga Ashram in Bali a different feel compared to classes rooted purely in Indian yoga traditions. Over more than 8 years, he has developed a way of teaching Asana and Meditation that carries the calm, grounded presence often linked with Balinese spiritual culture.

That calm presence is really what defines his teaching. He doesn't teach with urgency or push students hard. Instead, his classes lead students toward a settled, quiet state, mostly through the steady, calm way he carries himself while teaching. It's less about pushing students into stillness through instruction, and more about the calm feeling he naturally brings into the room.

In terms of style, his teaching blends Indonesian yoga culture with classical Hatha basics, so students get a practice that feels familiar in structure but also carries influences special to Bali and its own spiritual traditions. For students who have only practiced within an Indian lineage before, this blend offers a genuinely different way to experience yoga and meditation.

If you practice with him, expect a class that values calm over intensity, and presence over performance. His 8+ years of teaching have gone into refining this grounded style, rather than moving toward flashier or more physically demanding forms. This makes his classes a good match for students wanting to slow down, whether they're dealing with a busy mind or simply want to experience yoga through a Balinese lens.
