Yoga Retreat Thailand — Where to go?

The Yoga Retreat Thailand trend is here to stay. And escaping to yoga retreats in Thailand mid-Winter is the perfect solo adventure.

Koh Phangan, Thailand

Dreaming of Thailand, sizzling street food and the smell of chili in the air, bustling night markets and beautiful beaches? I sure as hell am. I think it’s safe to say Thailand evokes more or less the same few idyllic things for everyone. But one thing that’s currently gaining popularity is the Yoga Retreat Thailand trend. Escaping for yoga retreats during your Thailand itinerary mid-Winter is a great solo adventure and the perfect way to experience those magical holiday vibes you’ve been craving, but with a restful and invigorating twist of a health holiday, you won’t forget.

Yoga does not just change the way we see things, it transforms the person who sees.” is one of my favorite yoga quotes as it encapsulates so much of the magic there is to be found in a Thailand yoga retreat, or anywhere else.

When picking from the vast Yoga Retreat Thailand throng of offers, most people will opt for the southern islands, which makes total sense. But there are so many other places to visit in Thailand! I’ve also included a few retreats up north if you prefer that area. I love Chiang Mai too!

And since you will likely be commuting through Bangkok upon arrival, here are some more handy resources I wrote which might be helpful:
