When you are in Bali—the spiritual heart of the world—the convenience of “Private Yoga on the Go” is an undeniable luxury. Whether you are staying in a clifftop villa in Uluwatu or a tropical oasis in Canggu, having a world-class instructor arrive at your door is the ultimate way to deepen your Sadhana (daily practice).

However, as the wellness industry in Bali grows, so does the range in service quality. Not every “mobile yoga” provider operates with the same level of integrity, safety, or logistical expertise. At ADDA YOGA Bali, we believe in the principle of Satya (truthfulness).

To ensure your journey is safe and enriching, we have compiled the essential guide of 5 questions you must ask any mobile wellness provider before you book.

1. “How do you verify your instructors’ international certifications?

In the world of yoga, a certificate is more than just paper—it is a guarantee of Anatomy & Physiologyknowledge and safety.

  • The Industry Standard: A reputable provider should only employ teachers with a minimum of an RYT-200 (Registered Yoga Teacher) certification, recognized by international bodies like Yoga Alliance.
  • The ADDA YOGA Difference: We go a step further. Our teachers are handpicked not just for their certificates, but for their ability to teach “off the mat.” When you book with us, we match your experience level (from raw beginner to advanced) with an instructor who specializes in that specific intensity, ensuring you are never pushed beyond your safe limit.

2. “What is your transparent policy on travel and logistics?”

Bali’s traffic is legendary, and nothing ruins a Vinyasa Flow faster than a teacher arriving 30 minutes late or asking for “extra petrol money” at your doorstep.

  • The Red Flag: Providers who give a flat rate but don’t account for the distance between Canggu and Uluwatu often face “burnout” or punctuality issues.
  • Our Policy: We are transparent about our Service Area Guarantee.
    • Home Zone: Standard rates apply within 5 km of Canggu (including Berawa, Pererenan, and Umalas).
    • The Greater Reach: For areas beyond 5 km—like Seminyak or the Bukit peninsula—we provide a personalized quote This ensures our teachers are fairly compensated for their travel time, allowing them to arrive at your villa grounded and ready to hold space.

 

3. “What are your booking security and deposit protocols?”

 

A professional wellness business should have a structured “Terms & Conditions” page. This protects both the student and the teacher.

  • Ask About Deposits: If a provider doesn’t ask for a deposit, they may not be able to guarantee your time slot if a “higher-paying” group comes along.
  • Our Protocol: To confirm your session, ADDA YOGA requires a 50% non-refundable deposit via PayPal. This secures your instructor’s time. The remaining balance is paid directly to the teacher in cash. This “hybrid” payment system ensures professional commitment while keeping the final transaction simple for you.

4. “How do you handle modifications for injuries or health conditions?”

Yoga is a healing modality, but without proper guidance, it can aggravate existing issues.

  • Expertise Check: A high-quality provider will always ask about your physical history before the class begins.
  • Tailored Practice: At ADDA YOGA, we ask you to share your experience level and any injuries during the booking process. Whether you need a Restorative session for recovery or a Hatha practice focused on spinal alignment, we handpick the teacher whose expertise matches your medical or physical needs.

 

5. “What is your policy on group sizes and space requirements?”

A private session for one person is very different from a private event for ten. The provider should offer clear guidelines on how to set up your “home shala.”

  • Logistics Matter: Ask if they have a cap on student numbers or if they charge per person.
  • The ADDA YOGA Guarantee: We allow changes to student numbers up to 48 hours before class. We also provide professional advice on your setup: ensuring a spacious area for mats and recommending a shady spot to avoid Bali’s midday heat, which can interfere with Pranayama (breathwork).
