Practicing Yoga classes Nusa Lembongan will feel quite different from doing it in Ubud. You won’t see long lines of studios competing for your attention, and the weekly schedule won’t be filled with hundreds of classes. Instead, there are a few small shalas, some of which offer really great classes in gardens or by the beach, where the calming sound of water replaces the noise of busy streets.
While staying on the island, I took a class here, and what stands out is the size. The groups are small, the spaces are open-air, and you won’t need air conditioning in the morning. The yoga scene on Lembongan is still pretty small, so most studios know their regulars. But don’t worry, drop-in visitors are welcome at all the places on this list.
One important thing to know is that the choices here are limited. If you’re coming from Ubud or Canggu expecting the same variety, you might be disappointed. For a 2–3 day trip, this isn’t a big problem. But if you want a longer yoga holiday, you should look into teacher training programs or retreat packages instead of just dropping in for classes.
A few things to keep in mind before your first class on Lembongan:
- Check schedules directly before showing up. Studios on smaller islands shift their timetables seasonally and don’t always update online listings. A quick WhatsApp message the evening before saves a wasted trip.
- Drop-in is fine at most studios. No advance booking required unless you’re joining a workshop, retreat, or teacher training.
- Cash is standard. Most studios accept IDR cash. A few take a card for class passes. Confirm when you arrive.
- Getting here by scooter or taxi. All five studios are in or just off the main road in Jungutbatu. A scooter rental (IDR 100,000 / $7 per day) gives you the most flexibility.
Best Yoga Nusa Lembongan
🧘 Island Yoga Nusa Lembongan
📍 Address: Hidden laneway off the main road, Jungutbatu View on Google Maps
📸 Instagram: @islandyogalembongan
Island Yoga Lembongan is the oldest and most unique yoga studio on the island. The shala is tucked away down a quiet sandy path off the main road in Jungutbatu—you might miss it if you’re not looking while on your scooter. Surrounded by a tropical garden, with the sounds of the ocean nearby, it has a cozy small-group vibe that’s hard to find at busier studios on the mainland.
Drop-in classes include vinyasa, yin, and hatha yoga. But the studio is especially famous for its sound healing and gong meditation sessions. They also offer private sessions at the shala or your villa, cacao ceremonies, and oracle card readings. It’s more than just a regular yoga studio, but the yoga classes are still really good.
BGB TIP: The gong meditation on Monday evenings is the most talked-about session. If your trip overlaps, book it in advance via their website rather than assuming space will be available.

🧘 Yoga Bliss Nusa Lembongan

Yoga Bliss has been operating on Lembongan for over 5 years and offers one of the most organized yoga setups on the island. The studio is located at the back of Green Garden Restaurant, so you can easily do a yoga class and then have breakfast or lunch without leaving the restaurant. There are two shalas: one open-air with fans and one indoor with air conditioning, which is helpful during the wet season when the heat and humidity can make outdoor yoga uncomfortable.
You can choose from vinyasa, yin, hatha, or ashtanga classes, all taught by international instructors. The studio also offers Yoga Alliance-accredited 200-hour and 300-hour teacher training courses.
If you’re just dropping in for a class, the process is simple and well-organized. With an international teaching staff, you can expect a consistent quality. If you’re interested in more than just a few classes, they also have retreat packages that include accommodation.
BGB TIP: Six percent of the income from these programs is donated to local community and environmental projects on the island, which is something to keep in mind when deciding where to spend your money.
| Option | IDR | USD |
| Drop-in class | IDR 120,000–150,000 | $7–9 |

🧘 Shizaru Nusa Lembongan
📍 Address: Jl. Jungutbatu, Lembongan Island View on Google Maps
📸 Instagram: @shizaru_lembongan
🌐 Website: myshizaru.com
Shizaru is the only hot yoga studio on Nusa Lembongan. The studio features the original Bikram beginner series, 26&2 hot yoga, and Inferno Hot Pilates, all set to music in a heated room.
Hot yoga isn’t for everyone, especially on a tropical island where it’s already warm outside. But if you enjoy sweating in your practice, many regulars find that the heat is part of what they want. Shizaru has created a community for people who like hot yoga. Even though the poses can be intense, the classes are beginner-friendly. The main challenge is the heat, not the poses.
The studio also hosts retreats and wellness events on the island. If you’re traveling alone and want to meet other yoga practitioners, the classes have a social atmosphere unlike that of quiet garden shalas.
BGB TIP: Bring a full water bottle and a towel; the room gets genuinely hot. If you’ve never done hot yoga before, tell the instructor before class starts. Drink water beforehand and don’t eat for at least 2 hours before a session.

Frequently Asked Questions Best Yoga Nusa Lembongan
How much does yoga cost on Nusa Lembongan?
Drop-in classes typically cost between IDR 100,000 and 180,000 (about $6 to $11) at most studios. This is roughly the same as in Canggu and a bit cheaper than in Ubud. Akira Yoga offers a free community class on Sundays. Prices for class passes vary, so it’s a good idea to contact the studios directly for the latest rates since they change with the seasons.
Is Nusa Lembongan good for a yoga retreat?
If you’re planning a short retreat of 4–7 days, you’re in luck. Isla Indah Retreat and Akira Yoga offer structured retreat packages that include accommodation, daily classes, and optional island activities. If you’re just visiting for a couple of days and want to add yoga to your plans, Island Yoga Lembongan and Yoga Bliss are the most convenient options for you.
Do I need to book yoga classes in advance on Lembongan?
If you’re dropping in for regular classes, remember that walk-ins are welcome at Island Yoga, Yoga Bliss, Shizaru, and Akira Yoga. For sound healing sessions, gong meditations, or the free Sunday community class at Akira Yoga, it’s best to book ahead because these spots fill up quickly, and the studios are small. Always check the schedule directly with the studio the day before since the timetable can change with the seasons.
Which yoga studio on Nusa Lembongan is best for beginners?
You can join Island Yoga Lembongan and Yoga Bliss even if you’re a complete beginner; they welcome you in their drop-in classes. Akira Yoga offers daily Vinyasa and Yin classes suitable for all levels. Shizaru is beginner-friendly with poses that are suitable for newcomers, but keep in mind that the hot format makes it more physically challenging, so consider this before your first session.
Can I do a yoga teacher training on Nusa Lembongan?
Yes. You can take Yoga Alliance-certified programs at Akira Yoga, which offers 200-hour, 100-hour, and 50-hour courses at The Yoga Garden Lembongan near Dream Beach. It’s the most specialized YTT on the island, focusing on Yin Yoga and Chinese Medicine. You might also want to check out Yoga Bliss, which offers 200-hour and 300-hour programs. For more information on staying on the island, see our 2-day Nusa Lembongan itinerary.
Final Thoughts on Yoga Classes Nusa Lembongan
The yoga scene on Nusa Lembongan is small by design. There are five studios, a few daily classes, and a relaxed pace that matches the island itself. If you’re visiting and have a couple of days to spare in Bali, just one or two morning classes at Island Yoga or Yoga Bliss will do. But if you’re looking for a deeper experience like Yin Yoga combined with Chinese Medicine, a retreat that mixes yoga with surfing and freediving, or a hot yoga session to sweat it out, the island offers something special for everyone.
Make sure to check the schedules at each studio before you arrive. If you’re still planning your trip to Nusa Lembongan, you might want to start with our complete 2-day itinerary.
