Luh Juniati
Senior Spa TrainerMy Background
Hi, my name is Juni I come from Singaraja in the North of Bali. I started my career as a Butler at a luxury resort which was my first foray into the world of Hospitality. In 2007 I began my career with Mandara Spa as a Spa Therapist, my first assignment was in the stunning Pacific Island of Palau where I served guests from all over the world especially Japan and China. On returning to Bali, I was offered the position of Mandara Spa Trainer, which I have loved ever since, it has now been 14 years of teaching Spa Therapy students all over the world and I couldn’t be happier.
My Passion for Work
The work we do with our hands as Spa Therapists is in my opinion Art, we are able to take a sore, stressed tired person and within an hour transform them into a light, relaxed being. Teaching this Art to my students is what drives me, transferring my skills, growing confidence in others and spreading my passion for this industry fills my heart.
My work has given me incredible opportunities to travel and meet and massage interesting, kind, and even a few famous and globally influential people.
My Life’s Joy
When I am not working my greatest happiness is found in my home cleaning, organizing, and cooking for my loved ones, my family is my life and being there for them brings me immense joy. Plus, I really love shopping – but doesn’t everybody?

On returning to Bali in 2018 I took up the post of Spa Trainer, I have always had a passion for mentoring and guiding my junior colleagues and I felt this would be the next natural step in my career.
My Passion for Work
In my role as a Trainer, I have the opportunity to assist others chase their dreams just as I have done, transformation in a student is what motivates me, to see where they start and what they can do when they focus and work hard.
I love knowing that my students will one day be travelling the globe and have the opportunity to see other countries and experience the diversity of life.
My Life’s Joy
I work hard and I relax well, I like nothing more than spending my weekends visiting the salon for some pampering and doing a spot of shopping. Keeping it simple, keeping it calm and quiet is what makes me happy and allows me to re-energize for the week ahead.
