Why Yin Yoga — Now?

In a world that glorifies speed, productivity, and intensity… Yin Yoga is a radical act of slowing down.

Yin is where deep transformation happens — quietly.

Extend Your Journey in Phuket

Your Yin Training may last one week — but your experience in Phuket can go much deeper. Many students choose to arrive earlier or stay a few extra days to integrate their learning, explore the island, or continue their wellness journey. All experiences below are available at an additional cost and can be arranged with our team.

  • Eco Adventures & Island Tours
    Phuket is surrounded by turquoise waters, limestone cliffs, jungle landscapes, and vibrant local culture. Through our own eco-tour company and experienced local guides, you can explore the island and nearby regions in a conscious and meaningful way. Whether discovering hidden beaches, snorkeling in clear waters, visiting cultural temples, or experiencing ethical wildlife encounters, these adventures are designed to align with yogic values and sustainable travel.
  • Yoga & Meditation Sessions
    Before or after your training, you are welcome to join our regular yoga and meditation classes at the rooftop studio. Continuing to practice within our community environment allows you to stay connected to your body, breath, and awareness while enjoying the peaceful retreat setting.
  • Energy Healing & Continuing Education
    If your travel dates align, you may choose to expand your learning through additional energy healing offerings held at Andaman Yoga Academy. Reiki courses, private Reiki sessions, and sound healing ceremonies are sometimes scheduled close to the Yin training dates, allowing you to combine certifications or simply deepen your personal exploration of subtle energy and healing practices.
  • Spa & Detox Experiences
    Yin Yoga works deeply on connective tissue and the nervous system, and many students complement this work with spa treatments or detox programs. Our wellness facilities offer variety of massages, herbal steam and holistic spa treatments, as well as structured cleanse programs for those wishing to support their body’s natural reset process. This can be a powerful way to integrate the physical and energetic shifts experienced during training.
  • Surfing Experience: Kata Beach
    Embrace the thrill of surfing at Kata Beach, renowned as one of Phuket's premier surfing destinations. Our complimentary shuttle service provides easy access to the beach, where you can enjoy expert surf lessons and invigorating sessions amidst breathtaking coastal scenery.
  • Workshops & Day Pass Programs
    Throughout the year, we offer creative and wellness-based workshops as well as full and half-day immersion programs. These experiences invite you to explore conscious living through hands-on activities, mindful rituals, and holistic lifestyle practices, all within the supportive environment of Andaman Yoga Academy.
