Monthly Drop-in Classes

Drop-ins - for students who have a committed mysore ashtanga practice and, for whatever reason, need to stay elsewhere on the island, we open up the opportunity to drop-in and practice in our dedicated mysore ashtanga program.  This is a month commitment at a time. Monthly drop in is not possible during full retreat programs. Please email us one month in advance if you intend to come.

The classes are conducted in our shala that opens to the beach and beautiful waters of Thailand. We follow a holistic approach to yoga, aiming to ground the student properly and help them grow from there. Morning classes are in the classic ashtanga system, primarily taught "mysore" style.

The ashtanga system, and the "mysore" style in particular, are a very thorough approach to the practice of yoga. It begins pretty basic and starts to open up and reveal its depth as the practice is continued over time. The mysore approach works with students individually so they progress appropriate to their level. It ensures that the student is always challenged and growing and at that the same time being where they need to be. For more about this please read the above mentioned articles on this site.

Paul and the other teachers are extremely dedicated to the practice and life of yoga. Paul is authorised by the master Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and they all spend time in India continuing to grow in practice. This ensures a thorough, clean and, of course, enjoyable approach to learning and practicing yoga. To learn more about the teachers, please read their bios.

For beginners
to the ashtanga series we recommend you join one of the retreats.

Those with experience in practice can drop-in based on a month at a time sign up. All are encouraged to do longer stays as the teaching can then fully sink in and practice can begin to reveal itself.
