Lord Ganesh at the Yoga Barn

Congratulations! You’ve been accepted into your favorite teacher’s teacher training in Bali. Now what??? Time to start planning and packing for your trip to the tropics. Here is my packing list for my month long teacher training with Zuna Yoga at The Yoga Barn in tropical Ubud.

I may have overpacked compared to some of the other girls in the training, but I used everything I brought. And of all the things I packed I shared the tennis balls the most. Who doesn’t like a little self massage during lecture?

I packed thinking I would want to have enough clean clothes to last me until our first day off, which was about 10 days in. My husband and I were in Bali for nearly 7 weeks and did laundry about once per week. I didn’t always change my clothes after morning practice, but I would recommend packing enough that you have the option to change into clean clothes after a sweaty practice. The Yoga Barn has showers that you can use as well.

I had a hard time finding a good packing list when I was preparing for my trip to Bali, so I hope you find my YTT packing list helpful.
