Anyone know any classes here? Please don't include the poncy overpriced spas/resorts and that mad Canadian woman in Rawai. Thanks.

I see a big sign on a building in Kathu opposite the Go Kart / ATV courses..

Yea ive spotted this also Birkam Yoga i think its called...ill have a look today on my way past.

I've seen Yoga advertised at Sukko Spa on Chao Fa West Rd. There's a nice place at Central, too, but it's shutting down this month.

"The mad Canadian"??? The woman in question is a well-qualified Ashtanga yoga instructor with a lovely shala and a very loyal following of students. She's lived in Phuket nearly 2 decades and is neither crazy nor angry (depending on what, exactly was meant by "mad") and in fact is a lovely and friendly person. There's not a single thing "mad" about her, which is much, much more than I can say about plenty of people claiming to be "yoga instructors" around here.

And yes, I realize you were just quoting the OP.

Sukkho Spa teaches Ashtanga yoga as well, Kata Hot Yoga (Bikram) just opened up in Kata and is quite good, there is Bikram in Kathu and Tomasz from the old Central studio has opened his own studio on the north of the island. Google will help out with links, if anyone is still interested.

Kata Yoga, opposite the Boathouse.

Atsumi & Friendship both in Nai Harn/Rawai are detox centres & have yoga every morning & I am sure would welcome casuals for yoga without having to be internally cleansed beforehand.

I too know the Canadian lady, never considered her to be mad but rather a compassionate person.

i wish them all the best.

I know a Canadian Yoga teacher here, she's part Filipina, not only is she not mad, but has to be one of the prettiest ladies in Phuket.

Aside from her good looks, she's a great person and I've been told an outstanding instructor.

PM me if you want her email.

i wish them all the best.

Hey Kim - just noticed that the OP is a banned member, so she probably won't be PMing you anytime soon. If you're looking for work, have you tried contacting the gyms in the neighborhood?

I can say that I started doing Hot Yoga in Kata and am totally hooked and I have never been a fan of yoga but always thought I "should" be doing it.

I have also never been one to enjoy fitness classes but this is just so different.

I was never able to get up early and now I can, i have more energy and in a short time my body changed, got firmer that even my friends noticed. It does not matter what your ability is and is not competitive. However I have seen some very fit looking guys with big muscles probably get one of the best workouts of their lives!!

The classes are very mixed with thai/farang male/female

I have been going for over 2 months now .. and a lot of my lower back pain has gone away..

The owner is Dutch and he is also the head instructor

PM me if you have any questions.

By the way the "Canadian Yoga teacher here, she's part Filipina" will be out of Thailand for a few months.

Are there also Thai yogateachers there? I used to follow Asthanga classes from a Thai couple in Chiang Rai, which I enjoyed very much. They hardly spoke English, but no problem at all.

Most of the time I was the only foreigner and I paid 50 baht per lesson

Totally different than the 450 baht Phuket price. Anyway, will follow this topic.

Well 50 baht a piece is good. Some places charge more for farang then Thai too here in Phuket.

Some...? Haha...

Maybe one day...there will be a different price for the rich and for the poor, instead of Farang-Thai...

there is yoga everyday from 11:30-1:00 across from the kok chang elephant camp on the hill from nai harn to kata. 250THB class.

My wife goes to AbbYsan who has just moved into where Easy Fitness was near Central 3000 baht a month for unlimited sessions - she says they are good.
