Meditation practice was incorporated into each lesson, one lesson was from 7:30-9:30 each morning, the other from 4:00-5:30 in the late afternoon. The yoga instruction was outstanding, there were four regular instructors and two levels beginning and intermediate/advanced in two separate rooms. My husband and I did a week long yoga retreat at Island Yoga on Koh Yao Noi, Thailand. We will definately continue the yoga and meditation practice in our everyday life after we have discovered how much is affect the body and the mind in a possitive way. We didn't regret our decision at all! Thank you so much to David, Betty, Dimitri and Antonella for making our yoga experience so special and to Ning, Sin and the rest of the staff for making the homely and cosy atmosphere. But after 3 days at the luxery resort we missed the yoga practise and the nice atmosphere at Island Yoga so much, that we changed our plans and moved back to Island Yoga to spend the last couple of days at our vacasion.
We stayed one week at this place and afterwards we were moving on to a more luxery resort at the same Island. We came as yoga beginners and felt in love with the yoga practise immediately. Altso the other guest are very nice and contribute in a perfect way to the pleasent atmosphere at this place.
This place is very special! The atmosphere at this place is very nice and the staff is unusual welcomming. If you are open to new experiences and wish to take care of yourself, go at your own pace and find some inner peace, this experience is for you! It was one of the best weeks of my life so thank you to all the staff and I hope to come back very soon! These class were all-level and you get many occurrences that the teachers give you the different levels to practice at your level - and improve if that is your wish. There are 2 yoga sessions a day (1h30 morning & 2h afternoon) and in the morning before the first session is a guided meditation class, where I found help with my solo meditation practice.Īll yoga lessons with the 5 different teachers (Marcello, Lucy, Mariana, Nash & Molly-Rose) were all wonderful - I had only known one type of Yoga before and now I have discovered and practiced so many more and my body felt so well at the end of the week. The retreat is well located on the island and in a quiet spot. I chose it because of the Tai Chi lessons on the beach with the sunrise and I gained so much more (and fell in love with Tai Chi at the same time!). I did the Yoga Vacation program of 5 days and I had the best time. Well done Island Yoga - see you again soon 👏👏 Best way to see the island is to hire a moped There are lots of places to go to outside of the resort if you get bored with the restaurant menu.
There is also some nice little bars and restaurants within walking distance. The resort does not sell alcohol but there is a large fridge in the room so we stocked it up with purchases from the local market. They are also moving towards being plastic-free which gets my thumbs up 👍 Our bungalow was by the pool and was clean, modern with mosquito nets around the bed. It’s worth investing in a bungalow with AC. Total beginners would not get the attention they need to learn the poses correctly due to the amount of people attending. The yoga classes were a little too large in my opinion but still good. Starting the day with Tai Chi at sunrise then two daily yoga sessions of 2 hours each. The place is perfect for winding down and relaxing. I absolutely loved Island Yoga and will definitely return.
