Inside Our Thailand 200hr Yoga Teacher Training
There are places in the world that seem to allow for an immediate relaxation of your nervous system. Where the air is softer, the pace is slower, and something about the environment makes it easier to let go and breathe easy.
Koh Samui is one of those places, and Vikasa Yoga Retreat (perched on a cliff above the Gulf of Thailand) is one of those sanctuaries.
This May, we're gathering there for our Thailand 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training, and I genuinely cannot think of a more beautiful or fitting place to step into this kind of transformation.
More Than a Certification
I want to say this clearly, because I think it matters: this training is not just about becoming a yoga teacher. It's about becoming more you.
Our 200 hour Yoga Alliance–certified program is built around the Present Practice pillars of Discipline, Discovery, and Devotion. It's a curriculum designed to help you deepen your personal practice, develop real teaching skills, and reconnect with who you're actually here to be… in this season of life, in this body, right now.
Whether you walk in with a dream of leading classes or simply a deep pull to understand yourself better, this training will meet you there, and it will shape you from the inside out.
The Journey Begins Before You Land
One of the things I love most about how we've structured this program is that the transformation starts before you ever board a plane.
Before we gather in Thailand, you'll move through The School of Being, our self-paced online prerequisite course. It's a thoughtful, unhurried exploration of yoga philosophy, Ayurveda, meditation, and self-inquiry. You'll begin sitting with the Present Practice pillars. You'll start asking bigger questions. By the time you arrive in Koh Samui, you won't be starting from scratch. You'll be arriving with a foundation and a confident readiness.
Vikasa: A Place That Holds You
Our in-person immersion takes place at Vikasa Yoga Retreat, and truly, it has to be seen to be believed.
Imagine waking up to panoramic views of the turquoise waters below. Practicing in the golden morning light with the sound of the ocean beneath you. Gathering for nourishing, vibrant meals rooted in Thai wellness traditions. Resting between sessions at a saltwater infinity pool that seems to pour right into the sea.
There's a private beach, a full-service spa, and thoughtfully designed rooms that balance simplicity with real comfort. Everywhere you look, nature is reminding you to slow down. You're exactly where you're supposed to be.
This is the container for your transformation, and my goodness it is a good one.
You only become a yoga teacher once, and we're here to make it unforgettable.
If Thailand is calling you, we'd love to welcome you. Reserve your spot here, or schedule a call with us if you have questions. We're always happy to talk it through.
With so much love,
Zoe
