The Superhuman Experience in Bali

September 26 - October 1, 2025

Ubud, Bali
Our initial retreat in March was so great that we had to do it again.

Join David Verdesi in Bali for a rare opportunity to immerse yourself in the Superhuman Experience—two transformational seminar over the course of 7 days that go deep into the Superhuman trainings.

Whether you’re just beginning or deep in your practice, this retreat is an invitation to step beyond ordinary consciousness, unlock your innate power, and receive the energetic activation of a lifetime through sacred ceremony just like in the Searching for Superhumans Docuseries.

Choose one seminar or attend both. Come prepared to be transformed.

I want to invite you to something different.

An invitation from David Verdesi

This isn’t a retreat. It’s not a workshop. It’s a living experience—an immersion into a field of transformation.

for those who are done collecting techniques and are ready to enter into something real.

This is the work I hold closest to my heart.

What I’ll Be Sharing

In Bali, I’ll be teaching two core practices that I feel called to transmit at this time.

First, a set of teachings that are deeply practical—tools you can actually use to shift your experience, your perception, your life. Whether you’re walking the path toward complete enlightenment, or simply looking to live with more presence, these practices meet you where you are.

Second, we’ll explore the union of heart and mind—what I call the vertical axis of experience. This axis becomes a vector, a direction. And direction is everything. Without it, techniques are just noise. With it, transformation begins.

What to Expect (And Not Expect)

I never follow a script. I teach what’s needed, based on the people who show up. The form may change—but the essence is always the same. What I share comes from one line, one transmission, not a patchwork of systems.

This is not spiritual gymnastics. Yes, we’ll work with breath. Yes, there will be energy. But that’s maybe 20, 30 percent. The rest is dialogue. Conversation. Relationship. That’s where the real work happens.

People ask me what the practice is. The practice is the dialogue. The meeting of two minds, two creative forces. That’s how we orient the soul. That’s how we find the way forward.

Something Rare

You’ll also have the chance to meet someone very special—an extraordinary healer with rare energetic abilities. If you’ve seen the documentary, you’ll remember the man with the electric leaf. This will be a direct experience of that same kind of force.

There will also be the opportunity to receive blessings from a respected figure in the local spiritual tradition. These aren’t just performances. These are living transmissions—deeply embedded in the land and culture of Bali.

Why We’re Doing This

Because the real purpose of this work is reunion.

Religare—to reunite. Yoga—to yoke. To return to what you are, to dissolve the illusion of separation.

That’s the real teaching. And it can’t be downloaded or streamed. It has to be lived, in relationship, in presence.

So if you feel the call—come. I’ll meet you there.

– David

The Superhuman Story

It all started with one of the strangest phone calls Qi Gong master Lee Holden had ever received.

A film director asked him, “Do you know anyone with real superhuman abilities? Energy transfers, psychic phenomena—stuff you wouldn’t believe.”

Only one name came to mind: David Verdesi.

​​​​​​​Lee and David had met in their 20s while studying under the legendary Master Mantak Chia in Thailand. Even in that elite circle, David stood out. Students would strike him with baseball bats, try to bend swords against his throat—none of it worked. His body defied logic.

Raised in Rome by his grandmother—a WWII sniper who skied and shot Nazis—David was anything but ordinary. While other kids played with Transformers, he practiced Judo, threw knives, and trained with a crossbow.

He wasn’t trying to be tough. He was chasing something deeper: power.

At age 11, David was while dancing in the rain in the Aps, in pure trance. There he experienced something that changed everything—pure, electrical energy coursing through his body.

And then he passed out.

When his grandmother eventually found him and touched his body, she got shocked.

She was fine. She thought it was just static electricity or a leftover charge. But David had touched Qi. And from that moment, he had to master it.

There was just one problem: he was eleven, living in Rome. Asia and its masters felt galaxies away.

But David didn’t wait for the path to open. He made one.

Armed with the Yellow Pages, he visited every Chinese restaurant in the city. One by one. Spring rolls, fried rice, and the same question:

“Do you know anyone who understands Qi?”

Eventually, it paid off. A waitress said yes—and called a chef from the kitchen.

David described the power he’d felt. The chef listened, then simply said,
“Hold out your hand.”

The moment he touched David, a powerful shock surged through his body. One that he would become very familiar with over the years.

David's only response: “When can we start?”

The chef replied that he'll be in Taiwan training with masters in a few months and for David to meet him there.

David did just that—and never looked back.​​​​​​​

From Taiwan to Indonesia, from Himalayan caves to Taoist temples, David trained under over 120 masters across Asia and beyond.

David could do things no one else could. He became what most would call "superhuman".

David sending the same powerful thunder path transmissions that he received at age 11 to others.

But something wasn’t right.

Despite all the power, something was missing. He kept chasing greater feats, deeper highs. Until one night, during a party, he attempted yet another demonstration—exhausted and overstretched. It went wrong. A knife slipped and drove into his neck.

He almost died. Not just physically—but spiritually.

David had assumed that becoming extraordinary would bring awakening.

But it didn’t.

It was a power trip, a childhood obsession. Not a path to truth.

And in that moment of collapse, David saw something clearly:

Even among the masters, many were emotionally wounded, spiritually fragmented, or deeply attached to money and fame.

So he didn’t abandon everything he’d learned—he refined it.

David in Tibet working with one of the many masters he met when searching for people with special abilities. 

After decades of study, David saw what almost no one else could. Beneath every tradition, every culture, every miraculous feat, there were a few common principles. As David says:

“Doesn't matter which historical period, which anthropology, which tradition. By interviewing hundreds of them and living with them and training with them, there were universal principles that each one shared"


He realized that techniques are just vehicles—they vary by person, culture, and life stage.

The real transformation happens when you understand the principles beneath the techniques, and work with clear protocols designed to build not just altered states, but awakened traits.

David redefined his mission: not to chase highs or perform miracles, but to use the deep patterns behind superhuman abilities as a path toward real, lasting transformation.

He began to map this individuation process—a journey that includes the subconscious, the nervous system, the emotions, the body, and the way we relate. A path that awakens clarity, resilience, presence, and the capacity to love.

Today, David guides others not toward spectacle, but toward integration.

The Superhuman Experience isn’t about chasing phenomena.

​​​​​​​It’s about unlocking your full human capacity—integrating the mystical and the mundane, the shadow and the light, into a complete, embodied self.

This isn’t about doing the impossible.
It’s about becoming more fully you than you’ve ever imagined.
