Yoga Classes
There are countless benefits to doing yoga every day. Not only does it improve your physical health, but it also has profound effects on your mental and emotional well-being. Yoga is a powerful tool for managing stress and anxiety. It helps to calm the mind and ease tension in the body. Yoga also promotes better sleep and can increase your energy levels during the day.
Regular yoga practice can help to improve your flexibility, strength, and balance. It can also help to prevent injuries, reduce pain, and boost your overall immunity.
But the benefits of yoga go far beyond the physical. Yoga is an excellent way to connect with your inner self and find stillness and peace in the midst of chaos. It can help you to access your own wisdom and intuition and make better decisions in all areas of life.
Jungle Hiking
Hiking is not only a great way to get some fresh air and sunshine, but also a fantastic form of exercise. And, according to some research, it can be even more beneficial than running.
A recent study published in the Journal of Experimental Biology found that walking and running use similar amounts of energy, but that the muscle power required for walking is lower. So, over time, hiking can actually be less strenuous on your body than running.
Hiking also has a number of mental health benefits. A 2013 study from the University of Essex found that people who walked in nature had lower levels of rumination (a type of repetitive negative thinking) than those who didn't walk in nature. Walking in nature has also been linked with increased self-esteem and happiness.
Muay Thai
Muay Thai is a combat sport that originates in Thailand. It is considered to be one of the most effective stand-up striking martial arts in the world. Muay Thai boxing is known for its heavy use of elbows and knees, as well as its signature clinch work..
Muay Thai has many benefits, both physically and mentally. Physically, Muay Thai helps to build strength, endurance, and speed. It also increases flexibility and agility. In addition, Muay Thai improves balance and coordination. Mentally, Muay Thai helps to build discipline, confidence, and focus. It can also help reduce stress levels and promote better sleep habits.
Overall, Muay Thai is an excellent way to improve your physical and mental health. If you are looking for a challenging and enjoyable workout, Muay Thai is definitely for you!
Swimming
Swimming is wonderful exercise and has many benefits. It is a great cardiovascular workout and helps to tone muscles. It is also low-impact, so it is easy on the joints. Swimming can be done by people of all ages and abilities.
Swimming is also a great way to relax and de-stress. The water can be very soothing and calming. And swimming outdoors in natural bodies of water can be even more peaceful and rejuvenating.
So if you are looking for a workout that is good for your heart, your muscles, your joints, and your state of mind, swimming is a great option!
Guided Meditation
Meditation has been practiced for centuries, and it has a long history of being used for mental and physical health. In recent years, meditation has gained popularity as a way to improve overall well-being and reduce stress.
There are many benefits of meditation, including reducing anxiety and improving focus and concentration. Meditation can also help to increase self-awareness, promote relaxation, and improve sleep quality. Additionally, meditation has been shown to boost the immune system and reduce chronic pain.
If you're looking to improve your mental and physical health, Meditation is definitely worth trying!

About The Host
A cozy resort close to the beautiful Lamai Beach. It featured a simple restaurant with Thai food and a beautiful pool.
Over the years it became more and more involved in health and detox, as next door the Muay Thai Gym developed into a world-class health & fitness center. The resort started organizing their now famous all-inclusive packages, with no shortcuts to weight loss and full-body health.
Nowadays people from all over the world come to the resort and superfood café, requesting only the healthiest food, clean and comfortable rooms, detox treatments, as well as quality workouts and yoga classes.
Our holistic approach avoids ‘quick win’ diets and colonics, and instead focuses on letting your body do what it does best – cleansing itself naturally with food and exercise.
Our team will help you balance your mind, body, and spirit by ensuring your body has the healthiest food to fuel it, daily exercise to sweat toxins out, along enough downtime for you to relax and regenerate at your own pace.
Our location, on the beautiful island of Koh Samui in Thailand, definitely adds to the process of de-connecting with the rat race. The sunny tropical climate does wonders for the mood and the white Lamai beach, just a stone's throw away, is perfect for relaxation… or a heavy workout!
We pride ourselves on being a cozy resort offering a personal approach. Everyone has different abilities in their personal fitness and yoga practices – but most importantly, everyone has individual goals.
Our lovely staff will welcome you with their famous Thai smiles – nothing is more contagious than positive happy vibes. We hope to welcome you soon!

FAQ
What is the best time to come weather wise?
Koh Samui weather is really pleasant most of the time, that’s why we are open year-round. The climate in Samui comes in three seasons: dry, hot, and rainy. Thailand lies between the Tropic of Cancer and the Equator (slightly closer to the latter). This makes its climate warm and humid all year round. The humidity level stands between 70 and 85 percent, and the temperatures average at around 28°C. Koh Samui offers all that vacationers from cooler countries could dream of regarding weather conditions – the one thing you will rarely feel here is cold. You can enjoy the best weather conditions in Koh Samui between December and September. Even during the so-called rainy season (October and November) you will still enjoy lots of sunshine, while the rain showers come and go and seldom last longer than an hour.
Where is the resort located?
Located on Koh Samui, Thailand, in the village of Lamai – home to one of the best beaches on Koh Samui. A 25-minute taxi ride from the airport brings you to the end of the beach road in Lamai, basically the frontier between the tourist epicentre and local island life. Our location is perfect as it offers the action of Lamai with markets, beach-bars, and nightlife, but at the same time makes a gateway to discover the quiet and unspoiled South of the island.
Should I buy travel insurance?
We recommend to buy a travel insurance as it can provide a wide range of benefits from financial recovery for medical expenses that are incurred because of accidents and illnesses to protection against trip cancellation and interruption. Medical treatment can be very cheap in the local clinic but very costly in international hospitals.
What if I am on anti-depressant medication?
We believe the use of antidepressants can be avoided through challenging activities like hikes, yoga, healthy food, and natural supplements. Many guests with light to moderate mental health issues experience improvements in both mental and physical health. In any case please consult your doctor before booking. In the village of Lamai there are several pharmacies offering a variety of international and generic drugs, if you need to top-up on anything.
Is this a weight loss resort?
We are a fun-loving resort, different from all other detox retreats. We are not a hardcore bootcamp with shouting PT’s or a boring juice-cleanse retreat. We believe in the healing powers of exercising in nature with like-minded people, enjoying delicious & healthy food, relaxing yoga classes, and simply discovering the natural tropical beauty of Koh Samui, Thailand. For years we have watched people balloon and get angry with fad detox promises that don’t agree with their body balance. It’s about adopting a different lifestyle, not about strict diets or starvation methods.
How many people will be in the group fitness classes?
Generally we have anywhere from 2 – 8 people per class. Workouts, S&C and cardio classes are closed for guests outside of the resort. Only the daily yoga classes are open for guests staying off-site.
Do you provide equipment?
We provide all equipment for all sessions. For the fitness classes you just need to bring yourself, lightweight clothing, and trainers. It’s also a great idea to bring swimming goggles if you are a keen swimmer.
