Imagine waking up in the nourishment of nature. Imagine being surrounded by authentic, empathic people who support you in feeling safe enough to simply be you – without pretense, embarrassment or shame.
That’s what Alchemy breathwork retreat is all about.
Our Breathcamps embrace you in a family environment that supports the growth and changes you want to make. They help you to fulfill the greatness of who you are, so you can know yourself better, and perhaps even consciously step into why you’re alive in these particular times.
Our learning atmosphere for BreathCamp is one of courage, transformation and surrender. And it is so exciting!
No matter where you are in your breathwork journey – a newbie, an advanced breather, a graduate, or alumni – join us to explore your life in a deep, compassionate and caring setting.
Our tailored programs range from an introduction to breathwork for newbies, from deepening your why, to highlighting special classes for graduating students, that can’t be done online.
Learn new skills that give you confidence in yourself and your relationships. Bring your strengthened personal power into your every day life, personal to professional.
Breathcamp is for everyone serious about personal and global transformation. Whether you'd like to incorporate this work into your daily life, and/or become a facilitator, all levels are welcome!

Alchemy of Breath At The Ark
Ubud, Bali
Welcome to Bali!
The Ark, located in Penestanan 400 meters behind Alchemy Cafe, is unique, beautiful, and is said to be supported by spirits. This stunning property backs onto an undisturbed valley, fringed by rice fields and lush gardens - it’s a hidden gem.
The venue features an open-air yoga shala, where we will practice breathwork, and hold classes. It overlooks the jungle and is complete with gorgeous hardwood coconut floors and a thatched roof. Our pool, infrared sauna, and gardens are immersed in nature, and yours to use exclusively.
This Breathcamp is led by our long-time Master Trainer Pablo, and his team of mentors and angels. In this 9-day breathwork retreat, be deeply supported in letting go, and stripping away what no longer serves you. Release physically, emotionally, and even spiritually as our team holds you, and guides you on your learning journey.
Whether you’re a graduating student, or new to breathwork, blossom your inner knowing, and perhaps even find a greater sense of self-care, purpose and service.
Be nourished by our trainers, the venue, and the lovely Balinese staff - along with the innate healing magic of Bali.
What not to bring?
Drugs! ESPECIALLY FLYING INTO BALI.

Testimonials
- Steven (T15)
Breathcamp in one word: WOW! I loved every single moment of breathcamp. The learning and growth was beyond, personally as well as on my journey to becoming a breathwork facilitator. It truly felt like a deep dive into the breath, where all our online experiences accumulated in one incredible experience.
- Angela (T16)
Attending Breathwork retreat has profoundly changed my life! I met the most amazing people, accepting every messy bit of me and showering me with love and support. The sessions and classes helped me to connect with my intuition on a very deep and safe level. My own practice and space holding reached a new depth. I highly recommend the whole experience, it will push you forward in your processes in a way you wouldn't expect.
- Andrea, Switzerland
As a first-timer, I’m blown away, and committed to this path for life. What a relief to just be who I am. I felt held throughout the entire experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students
Yes! Please keep in mind that due to the nature of our work, intimacy is usually at an all time high. Please don’t mistake that as an emotional or sexual invitation. Be considerate of others personal space, and don’t assume anything. And… please keep sexuality in general out of the equation unless you arrived as a couple. Together, let’s protect a safe space for everyone.
Absolutely. We suggest setting your own boundaries, and clearly communicating them as needed. You’re also welcome to reach out to the mentors and team if you need support. Also, most of our locations are deep in nature, so take your space as needed!
Yes at ASHA! Contact the venue directly at other locations. You can do that in 2 ways at ASHA… either in our new 3-5 day pre/post Breathcamp programs, or ala carte (book when/as you like). At ASHA we recommend pre-booking space, as it’s high season in the summer and space tends to sell out quickly.
Once signed up, you’ll receive our welcome package, complete with the program guide, schedule, and more information.
We finish after lunch, around 2 pm on the final day.
Accommodation
Whether a new or old student, we only accept reservations for the entire duration of the event. Sorry, though we cannot offer exceptions.
Potentially. Book together to stay together at the same time. If you’re booking last minute we may not be able to accommodate your request but we promise to do the absolute best we can!
We’re sorry but due to high demand, your reservation is only confirmed once payment has been made and we cannot hold rooms for you.
