Who this is for: You're in Bali and want good people, useful places and a routine that isn't just another beach club.

My take: A good gym, a decent workspace and a few familiar faces change the whole experience.

Surfing

Three contacts saved in my notes:

• Jodi: Canggu Beginner Surf · +62 819 9900 9215.
• Angga: Dance on the Waves Bali · +62 813 5304 1697.
• Gibe: +62 857 9874 3231 · Instagram @gibebiyawaksurf.

Ask about experience level, safety, board hire, conditions, pickup and total price.

Fight clubs and gyms

• SOMA Fight Club — One of my favourite gyms from my Bali experience. My notes say to ask about Mike Ileilei.
• Wrong Gym — Contact lead Simon, from my notes.
• Bali MMA — Another training option to compare.

Some high-end gyms cost far more than local ones. Visit, try a session and compare long-term pricing before committing. My old prices aren't current quotes.

• Tropical Nomad — An old note connects Speak Up Mondays with Robert Ian Bonnick. Verify the event schedule.
