saneroad Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabeachbum Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Anyone know any classes here? Please don't include the poncy overpriced spas/resorts and that mad Canadian woman in Rawai. Thanks. Kata Yoga, opposite the Boathouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentine Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huggybear Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I too know the Canadian lady, never considered her to be mad but rather a compassionate person. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallingoffthemap Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 i wish them all the best.metta k 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMan Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 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 http://www.katahotyoga.com/ 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulwy Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMan Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Well 50 baht a piece is good. Some places charge more for farang then Thai too here in Phuket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulwy Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 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... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
