8-day yoga retreat on Koh Phangan.

Surya and Santosh amazed us as instructors. We learned so much in just a month, it’s mind-blowing! I can’t even fathom how it could get any better!! Going from knowing nothing about teaching yoga to leading a full hour class felt so empowering. And thanks to Santosh’s guidance, acing the Yoga Philosophy final exam was a breeze. This newfound knowledge will definitely come in handy in both life and my future classes.

The food was not just good, it was plentiful and diverse. And my beach bungalow was absolutely perfect! The setting was like something out of a dream. The camaraderie in our class was outstanding – I made 24 new friends from all over the world!

It might sound strange, but I couldn’t find a single thing I didn’t like or love. The days flew by so quickly after finishing my 200-hour ytt at One Yoga on January 13th. Now, just 10 days later, I wish I could turn back time and do it all over again.

I remember scouring the web for the right yoga teacher training and struggling to make a decision. After looking at many schools and reviews, One Yoga kept drawing me in. First, it was the 28-day duration, then the location and the amazing photos of the food, and I just knew I had to book it.

When I first arrived, it felt like magic and incredibly safe. Despite feeling a bit intimidated, each day was truly special. I learned so much about yoga, anatomy, philosophy, mantra singing, meditation, and most importantly, about myself. The teachers were so dedicated and professional, bringing great energy and sharing their knowledge in a way that was easy to understand. They were truly inspiring and lovely, and I miss them terribly.

The other students became like family, and I love them all so much! I miss them tons.

It might sound like I’m going overboard, but I truly can’t find the words to express how amazing this experience was.

And let’s not forget the wonderful staff! They were all so kind and helpful, always there when you needed them.

Did I mention the stunning location and delicious food yet? Just breathtaking!

Both staff and students are showing a lot of enthusiasm and energy.

I really wish the program was a bit longer so I could have more time for self-study and practicing teaching. By the end of each day, I was so tired that I didn’t study much and I would have loved some extra time for it. I absolutely enjoyed immersing myself in yoga practice and philosophy six days a week, all day long. It was exactly what I was hoping for. The One Yoga team, who are all so supportive and knowledgeable, have enriched my life and changed my perspective on yoga. I felt nurtured and cared for, both as a future yoga teacher and personally. The program was very holistic and packed with a lot of information in our 28 days.

Omdat ik alleen in het meditatie programma zat, betrokken ze me niet overal bij (bijvoorbeeld in de app groep). De sfeer was gezellig maar ook serieus. Ze hadden alles top georganiseerd. Het programma was precies goed, niet te zwaar. Het eten was fantastisch. Ik sliep in de accommodatie ernaast en dat was echt een mooie plek.

I have to leave soon, but it’s been great spending time with you!

I would recommend adding more guidance with meditation to really enhance the experience. Everything else was spot on! It was so healing and wholesome. The classes were awesome and different every day. The food was delicious and the staff was super friendly and helpful.

I think we should have fewer but longer breaks in between activities on the schedule. The Yoga teachers here are so diverse, each with their own unique style and knowledge to share. Yoga Nidra and Sound/Gong baths are offered every day to help you relax and release hidden emotions. The Yoga philosophy classes are tailored to the group’s interests and needs, and they are truly inspiring. And let’s not forget about the amazing food here—it’s absolutely out of this world! I am definitely coming back for more.

I liked every single item. Danny has my endless gratitude for establishing One Yoga and bringing in experienced yogi teachers. I am thankful to all my teachers who pour their hearts out sharing their knowledge and experience in yoga. The curriculum gave me a systematic education in anatomy & physiology, yoga philosophy, Buddhism, teaching techniques, and attention to detail in asanas and pranayamas. The weekly practicum challenges in Art of Teaching helped me think creatively and grow my confidence in teaching yoga. I started as a beginner and appreciate how much valuable knowledge I absorbed like a sponge.
Ji ji and her team deserve thanks for the delicious and nutritious meals and keeping the facility clean and comfortable. I highly recommend One Yoga to anyone. Huge thanks and best wishes to the teachers, administrative team, cook, and supporting staff at One Yoga. Namaste.

I absolutely loved everything about One Yoga! The peaceful setting, the quality of the meals, the kindness of the staff, the high level of both practical and theoretical knowledge of all the teachers, and especially the constant support and care you feel during this training… Everything at One Yoga makes this experience unforgettable as it helps us grow personally. More than just a yoga teacher certification, it’s a true journey to self-discovery in the most nurturing environment possible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the entire One Yoga team, I will never forget all that you have given me during this stay 🙂

I’d say they could improve the administrative part a bit 🙂 I definitely recommend this program to everyone. The asana classes rock, and the schedule is perfect for both beginners and advanced students. The anatomy class is customized for your yoga practice and super interactive, which I loved. The philosophy class is straightforward and enlightening, you’ll learn a lot about yoga and yourself! The teachers are fantastic, each bringing a unique perspective to the table. The food is delicious (my biggest worry before coming haha) and the bungalow view will inspire you to wake up early every day!

Everyone greeted me warmly, making me feel like I was returning to a loving family. The instructors were like spiritual guides, trusted friends, and supportive advisors. They were also great listeners when I needed a non-judgmental shoulder to cry on. I had no idea what to expect when I arrived, but the whole experience felt truly magical.

The language felt really tough for me, but it’s all about the experiences. Instead of learning with your brain, try experiencing what yoga can bring you. It’s all about love, kindness, and lots of patience.

As I left Love all of the staff, I noticed how accommodating they were to everyone’s needs, responding quickly. I really loved all the teachers, they were very knowledgeable. The daily meditation was a favorite of mine. The food, though similar each day, was tasty. I love how light and clean I feel now at the end. Koh Pha-ngan, an amazing island with like-minded people, is truly something special. And the sunsets? Absolutely beautiful!

I had an amazing month with One Yoga where I not only learned how to teach, but also gained unexpected insights into the history and philosophy of yoga. The course was well-organized and smooth. Koh Pha-ngan was just the right size to feel comfortable during the course and offered lots of places to explore.

My month at One Yoga was absolutely amazing. It was an incredible experience and a beautiful journey for me. Choosing to go there was the best decision I could have made. I adored the island and the Shala. The lectures were always super interesting and the yoga classes were taught with love to help you really delve deeper into your practice. Surprisingly, I found that I loved the morning meditation sessions. The teachers were amazing – so kind and always willing to listen and answer any questions. The food was delicious too. The staff and organizers were so friendly, always with a smile on their faces and ready to help. I really enjoyed my time there! Thank you, One Yoga! Namaste

I loved everything about it, it was so intense. The teachers were amazing, the location was perfect, the food was delicious – it was all great!

Danny, the curator of One Yoga, artfully put together this truly enjoyable experience that will round you out as a yoga teacher. The course covers philosophy, the art of teaching, and anatomy in a beautiful and thorough way. The teachers are lovely, though they may change from course to course. As soon as you arrive, you feel safe on a lovely island with plenty of vegan restaurants and options everywhere! You’ll make beautiful friendships, deepen your practice, develop as a teacher, and still have time to explore the island and connect with the local community. Can I please do it all over again?

The shala was always leaking from the rain, creating slippery conditions. The equipment like mats and pillows were subpar.

The accommodations were really lacking. Ants were constantly all over my bed and the sheets were scratchy and uncomfortable. The price for accommodations kept changing, and I didn’t get my deposit back due to unexpected charges like electricity for the poor room. I only found out about this charge on the day I was leaving. However, the teaching quality from Lior, Astrid, Surya, and Swami was absolutely fantastic!

In short, One Yoga Thailand completely changed my life. I didn’t have much experience with yoga when I started (only about 2 years of practice, taking 5-6 classes a month), but I felt a deep sense of calm and retreat that made me want to learn more and grow in my practice. One Yoga Thailand had everything I needed: a welcoming environment for all levels, highly qualified teachers, a mission focused on community and humanitarian work (not profit), and a beautiful yet humble setting. They offered a great balance of asana practice, meditation, philosophy, anatomy/physiology, and teaching skills, with time for relaxation and exploration. Most importantly, I found this experience helped me reflect and grow in mind, body, and spirit, guiding me towards a path of love, kindness, and respect for myself, others, and the world. Thank you One Yoga, you will always be my family and have a special place in my heart!

Some classmates faced challenges with their accommodation, but I stayed at Sunset Hill, which was incredibly comfortable and convenient! The yoga studio was right there, so all I had to do in the early morning was head up to the beautiful rooftop studio. I was just looking for quality information and knowledge on the physical aspects of yoga – asanas, sequences, correct alignments, teaching methods, and tools. And of course, a Yoga Teacher Certificate that is recognized worldwide.. What I got at the end of the course exceeded my expectations! The instructors were not only great teachers in their subjects, but also life teachers who shared their light with all of us. After the course, I not only became a yoga teacher, but also a happier person, with a transformed world. I gained valuable knowledge and wisdom for living a quality life… Endlessly grateful for this transformation!

A quick shoutout to the teachers:
Danny – the driving force of One Yoga, so bright and kind!
Surya – the sun and light of One Yoga; her Art of Teaching classes were efficient yet simple and clear; every yoga class was a harmonious experience with your body!
Swami Sachi – Philosophy may be philosophy, but I still remember your bright smile and kind heart!
Astrid – Anatomy classes may have been challenging, but your patience and love made them interesting and enjoyable! Really eye-opening information!
Lior – Singing the songs of life with you was a joy!
Clair – The team’s angel!

Namaste!

The yoga shala moved to a different location this time, which was beautiful but not within walking distance from my accommodation anymore. They should have given me the option to relocate and explained the situation since my accommodation wasn’t on google maps. I had thought I’d still be close enough to walk, but ended up needing a motorbike which I can’t ride. Thankfully, my family members offered me a ride every day! <3 Taking the 200hr TTC at One Yoga Thailand was truly one of the BEST experiences of my life. It was an incredible journey on this lush island. The people at One Yoga are so inspiring, full of love & kindness, and share so much wisdom. The environment they create is a safe space where you can truly be yourself and have the freedom to explore, learn, and grow. The classes are top-notch and incredibly valuable. Throughout the month, I found a new family in my One Yoga community. <3 We'll continue to learn from life, our experiences, and each other. I know that my One Yoga tribe, including the teachers and new friends, will always be there for me. One Yoga, One Love. Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu

You eventually overcome everything you don’t like because the whole point of this experience is to release and embrace a new life. I adored my Yoga Teacher Training experience, coming in with an open mind and being pleasantly surprised. One Yoga sits on the stunning Koh Phangan in the Surat Thani region of the island. It boasts gorgeous beaches, stunning sunsets, and a fantastic yoga/vegan atmosphere with plenty of restaurants catering to vegan diets. I was lucky to share this journey with 23 beautiful souls from around the globe – my new family. The teachers were highly qualified, teaching with love and unforgettable smiles. My accommodation at KP Guesthouse was a spacious, private room with natural light and air-con. The locals were incredibly friendly and helpful. Exploring the island on a rented motorbike during free time was a highlight. I can’t wait to come back to this enchanting place ~NAMASTE

We provide high quality teachings, excellent learning conditions, and a real life time spiritual experience.

I am so glad I chose One Yoga for my TTC training. Everything was absolutely perfect from the very beginning – they communicated well and were very organized. I really appreciate how they took care of us and made us feel valued.

Danny, Suria, and Latifa are amazing people with big hearts. They created a friendly atmosphere and always had time to help me. I felt safe and supported throughout the course, even as a beginner in yoga.

The food was delicious – we had a smoothie every morning for breakfast and a buffet for lunch, all vegan and very tasty. It changed my perspective on food, and I still eat vegan after the course.

The accommodation was great – I stayed in a bungalow just 6 minutes away from the school by motorcycle. Koh Phangan is a beautiful island, with a spiritual and positive vibe that will stay with me forever. I highly recommend One Yoga for their TTC course, it was truly an amazing experience.

The chefs repeated some dishes, but they still made them deliciously with love. The program didn’t just focus on yoga poses – it really opened my mind and guided me toward a more spiritual and balanced life. All the teachers gave me lots of support, and their knowledge and wisdom exceeded my expectations.
