7 Day Holistic Yoga Immersion on Koh Phangan's Beachfront

Each day follows a steady, unhurried schedule. Mornings start with a 90-minute yoga class in the open-sided shala, followed by a long, lazy breakfast break where you can swim in the saltwater pool or walk along the beach. Late morning brings a yoga philosophy and pranayama session, then a sound journey or yoga nidra. After lunch and another break, there's a group meditation, and the day closes with a yin or slow flow class as the sun goes down. Evenings are given over to optional activities like kirtan, cacao ceremonies, and ice baths.

The teaching is led by Sarah, who heads the yoga department and has over 6,000 hours of teaching experience, and Daliah Barkan, the co-founder of the centre. Daliah has been leading retreats in Thailand since 2003 and teaches from a background in Ashtanga Vinyasa and Hatha yoga. The centre itself has been running since 2005 and has hosted thousands of guests, with a reputation for a supportive, non-competitive atmosphere.

The retreat also makes full use of the centre's wellness facilities. After class you can sit in the herbal steam room, use the infrared sauna, or take a dip in the ice bath. There's a beachfront cafe serving a mostly raw, always vegan menu, and the whole property is set among coconut trees and tropical gardens. Legend has it that Koh Phangan sits on an ancient bed of crystal quartz, and the island has long drawn people looking for a place to slow down and reset.
