Yoga Teacher Training
Ashtanga & Hatha • 200H TTC
Deepen your practice in paradise • Awaken your voice as a teacher
Join us for a yoga teacher training on Koh Tao, Thailand
A tiny Thai island rooted in the tradition of flowing with the waves of life to dive deeper into ourselves.
Our immersive yoga teacher training is rooted in tradition, connection, and balance. Whether you aim to become a certified teacher or simply want to immerse yourself in a yogic lifestyle, this is your opportunity to go deeper – on and off the mat.
This training is for those ready to deepen their relationship with practice, reconnect with their own rhythm, and remember the ancient wisdom that lives in the body.
Ashtanga & Hatha Yoga Teacher Training
Our Yoga Alliance-accredited training goes beyond the usual curriculum, bringing together the power of Traditional Ashtanga and the softness of Hatha Yoga.
The training explores the in-depth eightfold path of yoga – the classical Ashtanga system -which provides a structured journey from ethical discipline and self-study to concentration and meditation. Through dedicated asana practice, pranayama (Breathing), philosophy, and alignment study, students cultivate strength, stability, and self-understanding.
This training is designed for sincere practitioners who wish to experience yoga in its true form, the way it is meant to be in its traditional form.
This is an intensive program where you get to immerse yourself fully into the lifestyle of a yogi. The programs are designed with care to support your self-growth and fill up your wellness cup so you can share from a space of plenty!
Candidates have the option to stay on-site or rent their own accommodation.
