Founders retreat · Targeting February 2027
7 Days to Feel Alive Again
The proposed trip spans eight calendar days and seven nights: four nights in or around Ubud, followed by three nights on Nusa Lembongan. The sample itinerary runs from arrival on Day 1 through departure on Day 8.
Exact dates, properties, suppliers, activities, availability, and pricing are subject to final confirmation until contracts are signed.
The retreat
Healthy as Hell Bali is an adventure-forward health retreat built around a simple idea: your health should make your world bigger. We are pairing daily movement and whole-food meals with the kind of experiences that make a week memorable—waterfalls, Mount Batur, hot springs, ocean time, and a small crew of good humans.
This is not a yoga intensive, a clinical program, or a transformation promise. It is a proposed, thoughtfully paced route with enough structure to make the trip easy and enough freedom to let Bali feel like Bali.
Keeping the group to 10–12 paying guests makes room for real conversation, practical support, and logistics that feel human. Solo travelers are welcome; the format is designed to make joining the group feel natural.
Meet Your Host
Thomas Kane has been involved in health, fitness, and natural living since 2003. His background includes raw and whole-food nutrition, extended wellness programs, fitness, entrepreneurship, and international travel.
Healthy as Hell grew from a broader idea: health should not be a life of deprivation or a performance of perfection. It should give you the energy, strength, and happiness to experience more.
Thomas will host the Healthy as Hell experience. Appropriately qualified local partners will operate specialist activities once suppliers are contracted; Thomas is not presented as a medical provider, mountain guide, or boat operator.

Find your fit
An honest fit matters more than filling every room. Read both sides before you raise your hand.
The proposed route
The route moves from arrival through central Bali and onward to Nusa Lembongan. Every stop remains subject to final contracts, conditions, and safe operation.
DPS to the island and back
8 days / 7 nights
These labels describe the intended rhythm. Timing, order, operators, and activities can change as contracts, weather, sea conditions, and safety require.
Land, settle in, meet the crew, eat something good, and let your nervous system catch up with your passport.
An easy mobility session, a nourishing breakfast, and a waterfall adventure paced for curiosity—not competition.
An early start for the proposed Mount Batur sunrise hike, followed by food, warm water, and a very earned exhale.
A slower central-Bali day for whole-food meals, mobility, local culture, optional recovery, and room to wander.
Travel toward the water, cross to Nusa Lembongan, and trade the inland rhythm for island air.
A proposed reef excursion, island exploration, and time at Dream Beach—with conditions and safety leading the plan.
A flexible day to move, rest, explore, laugh, and celebrate a week that felt much bigger than a week.
Close the circle, finish your personal 30-Day Reset, and leave with a plan that survives contact with real life.
Places shaping the route
These are the three locations Thomas shared for the working route. They are possibilities, not promises: no venue, operator, access plan, or inclusion is final until contracts and safety review are complete.
Pre-dawn challenge
A before-dawn Mount Batur climb is the proposed high point of Day 3: real effort, volcanic terrain, and a sunrise that weather never owes us.
Thomas’s shared link is for a specific trekking operator. No operator, route, or access arrangement has been selected or contracted.
Post-hike reset
Batur Natural Hot Spring is one of the places Thomas shared for the working post-hike recovery stop in the Lake Batur area.
Area context only: this photograph shows Lake Batur, not the named hot-spring facility. The venue and its inclusion remain unconfirmed.
Island edge
Dream Beach is a proposed Day 6 stop on Nusa Lembongan—a dramatic piece of coastline to enjoy with conditions, not a guaranteed swim.
Timing, transport, access, and swimming guidance remain subject to the final route and conditions on the day.
The practical bit
The final participant agreement will control exactly what is included. For now, this is the clearest working picture.
Before you commit
Final requirements will be published before booking opens. Nothing below replaces medical, legal, or insurance advice.
Active, not extreme. Expect walking, stairs, uneven and potentially wet ground, outdoor heat, boat transfers, and an early proposed Mount Batur hike. You do not need to be an athlete, but gradual preparation matters.
Proposed options are shared rooms, private rooms, and a limited premium-suite category. Exact room layouts, sharing arrangements, accessibility, and inventory depend on the contracted properties.
February is within Bali’s wetter season. Warm weather, rain, trail conditions, visibility, and sea conditions can all reshape a day. The final itinerary will favor good judgment over forcing a photo opportunity.
Qualified suppliers, current conditions, and participant safety will guide final activities. Suitable travel insurance is expected to be required; review medical care, evacuation, cancellation, delay, and planned-activity coverage carefully.

Not yet. February 2027 is the target window. Founders-list members will receive exact dates and final details first, before any booking decision is required.
You do not need to be an athlete. You should be comfortable walking on uneven ground, handling stairs, spending active time outdoors, and preparing gradually for an early Mount Batur hike. We will publish final activity requirements when suppliers and routes are confirmed.
Yes. The small-group format is designed to make arriving solo feel natural. You can request a shared room or choose a private room, subject to availability.

No. Movement and mobility are part of the week, but this is not a yoga intensive, boot camp, detox, or weight-loss promise. It is an active, balanced week built around feeling more alive.
