Where the Ocean meets the Soul
Slow down, reconnect, and rediscover balance on a secluded island without roads, where yoga, horses, and the rhythm of nature guide you back to yourself.

Each day at Secret Gili Islands YOGA Retreat unfolds gently. Mornings begin with mindfull meditation and yoga on the ocean-view Yoga platform, where sunlight filters through the jungle canopy and the sound of waves sets the rhythm for your breath. Afternoons invite exploration — snorkeling through coral gardens, hiking island trails, receiving a massage or simply swaying in a hammock as the world slows down.

OUR RETREATS

MEET OUR TEACHERS

Cilia

Verified Yoga Teacher

Growing up with a grandmother who is a yoga teacher, I was immersed in yoga from an early age. In 2018, I traveled to India to do my teacher trainings and study traditional forms of yoga.


My teaching bridges ancient yogic wisdom rooted in traditional Hatha Yoga with modern science. I studied psychology and am fascinated by the science of the body, which helps me to guide students to connect body, mind, and breath through asana, pranayama, and meditation.

My intention is to make yoga accessible to everyone, regardless of flexibility, age or experience, while encouraging students to grow on their personal journey.

I first set foot on this island 3 years ago as a traveller, fell in love with it and decided to make it my home, where I now live permanently at the Ecolodge as a full-time resident yoga teacher.

We stayed 10 days at the Ecolodge and came for Yoga classes every day, most of the time in the morning and again in the late afternoon for Ying Yoga. Cilia is a very talented Yoga teacher and for us it was a wonderful experience to have this Yoga retreat with experience with her in this calm and inspiring environment. Cilia makes this place alive and a real Yoga-Shelter. I am practicing Yoga for a long time but here it was a special experience and also after our stay at Gili Asahan the memory of the Yoga moments there are a source of energy and peace of mind.Thank you Cilia very very much and all the best for your way.

I had a truly wonderful yoga session at Gili Asahan Eco Lodge. The instructor was incredibly kind, calm, and welcoming, creating such a peaceful and grounding atmosphere. Practicing in the beautiful yoga shala with its breathtaking view was an amazing first experience.Highly recommend to anyone visiting the island!

Cilia’s yoga classes was a highlight of our stay at the eco lodge on gili Asahan. She’s a brilliant teacher and her yin class was so relaxing and we felt like we were floating afterwards. She explained the benefits of yin yoga as we practiced which was fascinating. The yoga Shala is perched on the top of the island and is a perfect calming space to move, breathe, and reconnect. The views across the water to Lombok are spectacular. Without doubt the mist beautiful place I have ever practiced yoga. We loved meeting Cilia - she has a wonderful energy and was warm and welcoming. She also kindly shared some fantastic recommendations for the next stage of our travels on Lombok. Highly recommended 🤩
