A different Thailand
Khanom Beach Paradise
Khanom is across from Koh Samui island and a world away from its noise. Long quiet beaches, a working fishing harbor, jungle waterfalls a short drive inland, and a resident pod of pink dolphins offshore. Hosted at Aava Resort & Spa, a small, owner-run property where the rooms open onto the sea.
[Placeholder: max group size]. Two practices a day. Real food. Time enough to actually rest.

Retreats
Open enrollment, small group, ocean-view rooms. Pick a date that fits, or write to us about a private group.
What's different
Built for the practice, not the package.
Small enough that the schedule flexes around the group. Hosted at the resort, not in a rented venue. Programming that respects your time.
Hosted at Aava
Ocean-view rooms, a dedicated yoga shala, a kitchen that takes dietary briefs seriously. The resort is the retreat, not a rented venue.
[Placeholder: max group size], [Placeholder: teaching staff size]
The cap is firm. Adjustments are personal. Questions get answered. You'll know the cohort by name on day one.
A real place, not a backdrop
Waterfall hikes, dolphin tours, fish-spa hot springs, a fishing harbor that still wakes up before you do. We build the days around the place.
Yoga Alliance certified
Train to teach in three rigorous weeks.
A small-cohort RYT-200 immersion at Aava Resort. Real anatomy, real teaching hours, no fluff. You'll graduate ready to teach a class on day one — not just hold a certificate.

What people say afterwards.
Khanom is what southern Thailand was twenty years ago. Quiet beaches, kind people, real food. The retreat fit the place — slow, generous, well-run.

Wellness Retreat — March 2025
The 200-hour was the most rigorous and most human training I've done. Real anatomy, real teaching hours, no fluff. I started teaching the week I got home.
Marco D., Italy
200-Hour Teacher Training — October 2024
I came expecting a week of yoga and left with a daily practice I've actually kept. The pace, the food, the fact that the cohort was small enough that Gabe remembered everyone's name — none of it felt like a package deal.
