About Us
Ashtari Yoga Kuta Lombok was born in 2006, on the remote surf mecca of the South Lombok coast; a humble meditation hut tucked amidst lush greenery on top of a hill with breathtaking ocean views over the South coast towards Sumbawa.
Our journey began with a dream of creating a sanctuary where mindfulness and nature converge. Nestled in Lombok’s lush hills, overlooking turquoise waters, Ashtari offers a transformative space for yoga, self-discovery, and holistic wellness. With deep roots in community and sustainability, we are more than a yoga studio—we are a lifestyle dedicated to harmony and growth.

Undoubtedly we have no questions to ask which are unanswerable.
