Craving a meaningful experience?
Welcome to Arise, a space to connect.
You set out on this journey to see new places, taste new flavors, and immerse yourself in life in Sri Lanka. But maybe, deep down, you were also looking for something more: to step away from the rush, the expectations, the constant noise of everyday life back home.
You’ve stepped into the unknown, chasing freedom, new experiences and possibility. Maybe just for a couple of weeks or you are traveling for a longer period of time. This newfound freedom isn’t always easy. When the noise settles, the questions and old mindsets and patterns remain. Now what?
You’re looking for clarity and grounding, and people who truly understand. You’re ready for meaningful connection, for community, even if just for a while.
At Arise, we’ve been there. We’ve walked the same path and continue to walk it, while we hold space for others on the same journey. We’re here to support you in slowing down, creating space to listen inward, and finding your next step.
Our yoga classes and events offer the chance to reflect, explore, and share with others. Through movement and practices such as meditation, breathwork, and sound healing, our experienced facilitators guide you in reconnecting. With yourself, with others, and with the present moment.
Set in the Sri Lankan jungle overlooking a village temple, Arise is your home away from home. We reflect, imagine, inspire, grow, and connect.

Why Arise? Hear from our students!
This space and the creators are AMAZING! What a setting….. it is like a dream.. the shala is surrounded by coconut palms, your private jungle overlooking a Buddhist stupor. Reverberating with peace, tranquility and good vibrations.
The owners are INCREDIBLE, their current offerings, ethos and plans for the future are visionary for the area and love how they are embracing the local community.
The standard of teachers/mentors is impressive especially for a tourist destination.
The schedule is full of a wide variety of classes, workshops, connection and just FANTASTIC vibes.
Love this space!
Mmmmm I think I will stay in Hiri a little longer!
Thanks to you ALL at Arise.
Such a peaceful place, you can hear the waves of the ocean in the background. I’ve really enjoyed the yoga class. Meditation, Pranayama, Asana, information about the intention of the class – everything set up so well. Can highly recommend.
Such a beautiful space run by incredible people. 100% worth a visit if you are in the nearby area.
The location is stunning – in the middle of the jungle, overlooking the local temple. It’s about a 5 minute walk to the beach and you can still hear the waves crashing. It is SO peaceful.
All the classes are run by skilled and knowledgeable people – I signed up to quite a few whilst on my holiday and loved every single one. The Muay Thai being my current favourite – a great way to get in a workout, learn a new skill with a brilliant teacher (we all had a great laugh too)!
They owners / Arise team work with the local community which is so lovely to see. They offer free local classes and often get involved with local projects.
Chatting to the team – the plans for this place sound dreamy and I cannot wait to go back. You have to be involved with this Arise 🌞🧡
I had a wonderful Ashtanga yoga class this morning. The location is a dream! Will definitely come back 🥰
Did the yin Yoga Session Today and it was really calming. Loved it!
A wonderful and magical place to reflect and train mindfulness. Everyone puts their heart and soul into this. Thank you arise
A simply wonderful place in the middle of the jungle with a view of the Hiriketiya temple. The Yin class that Charly, one of the owners, led was one of the best yoga classes I have ever had. 🌴🫶🏼
