Yoga is an ancient art of self-development, used for thousands of years for physical health, mental well-being and spiritual fulfillment. The system is complete and comprehensive in its nature, utilizing body, breath, mind and spirit as tools for transformation. Modern practice involves mainly asanas (postures) and breath to build good health and harmonious functioning of the whole being.
The meaning of the word yoga is to ‘join together’… the body unites with the breath to develop the mind and spirit, creating a unified and integrated person.

Yoga classes are held daily at 8am, 10:30am & 4pm in our Buddha Hall.

Session: 300 Baht/class or 7 pre-paid tickets for 1,600 Baht (@230 Baht each)

January1 to February 12 :- Ashtanga yoga with Yogi Luiz

Brazilian born Luiz has been a disciple of Asthanga yoga for over 10 years , after studying for 3 1/2 years with Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and his grandson Sharath in Mysore, Luiz  has been sharing his passion ever since.
Luiz will adopt the traditional principle of Mysore Style [self practice] whereby students work at their own pace and the emphasis is on learning the sequence of asanas and encouraging focus and awareness. In accordance with the Mysore teaching style, Fridays will be led classes, encouraging students to work on the flow and rhythm of the Ashtanga system. For beginners this is the perfect opportunity to learn about this amazing practice in depth and step by step; for those already familiar with Ashtanga, this is a chance to deepen an existing practice. All levels welcome.

This 6 weeks of Asthanga practice will be a perfect warm up for our Asthanga Yoga Teacher Trainings program due to start on Feb 13

Febuary:-  13 to Marc h 14       Hatha Yoga with  Shakti Mhi

Shakti Mhi has been teaching Yoga Teacher Trainings at Sanctuary for 5 + years and we are very pleased that she will share her skills at our regular 8 am class at this time – Her teaching, which is rooted in classical Hatha Yoga (without the religious aspects), has been described as: “profound, experiential and transformational”.   Shakti draws on more than 30 years of personal experience in Yoga and Zen. From living in a Yoga ashrams in India, to spending a year in contemplation in a middle-eastern desert, as well as taking advanced training at Yoga centres from a number of Hatha-based traditions, shakti’s knowledge base is extraordinary. shakti passes on this knowledge through the ancient medium of direct teacher-student connection, as well as through the new mediums of online forums and published literature.

Shakti Mhi will teach a 1 month Yoga Teacher Training group at Sanctuary from March 15. – It is arguably the most effective and unique course of its kind available anywhere, utilizing the latest in audiovisual multimedia learning in a fully immersive and experiential learning context
