11 Day 100 Hour Hatha & Ashtanga Yoga TTC in Chiang Mai, Thailand

This intensive 100-hour teacher training combines traditional Hatha and Ashtanga practices with comprehensive yoga education. Your days start with shatkriya (cleansing practices) and pranayama before moving into daily Hatha and Ashtanga classes. The program weaves together physical practice with theory through Yoga Anatomy workshops and Philosophy sessions. You’ll also engage in Karma Yoga (selfless service), mantra recitation, and meditation practices. Beyond the mat, there’s an excursion to ancient Buddhist temples and sightseeing in Thailand’s highest mountain range, adding cultural depth to your yoga education.

You’ll stay in wooden Thai-style bungalows without air conditioning in Chiang Mai’s natural setting. The accommodation keeps you connected to Thailand’s traditional architecture while the mountain location provides a peaceful backdrop for intensive study. The non-AC aspect means you’ll experience Thailand’s climate authentically, which actually supports the detoxification process central to yoga practice. The property offers a genuine retreat atmosphere away from Chiang Mai’s busy city center.

This program welcomes all levels, making it perfect for both yoga practitioners wanting to deepen their practice and those considering teaching. The 4.75-star rating from previous participants speaks to the quality of instruction and experience. However, this isn’t a relaxing vacation retreat – it’s serious study requiring daily commitment to multiple practices and workshops. If you prefer luxury amenities, struggle with heat and humidity, or aren’t ready for an immersive educational experience, this intensive format might feel overwhelming.

Insider Tip: The homemade herbal detox drinks are a unique feature here – embrace them as part of the cleansing process rather than viewing them as strange additions to your routine.

All meals are vegetarian with vegan options, plus organic and Ayurvedic choices available. Beyond accommodation and food, you receive comprehensive study materials including textbooks and a complete 100-hour training manual. The temple excursion and mountain sightseeing come included, along with daily practices spanning physical asanas to meditation. You’ll need to budget separately for airport transfers, air conditioning (if desired), laundry services, and personal expenses like travel insurance and flights.

Free cancellation provides flexibility for international travel planning. Since you’re staying in wooden bungalows without AC, pack lightweight, breathable clothing suitable for Thailand’s warm climate. The retreat runs year-round, though cooler months (November-February) offer the most comfortable temperatures for intensive practice. Chiang Mai’s location makes it accessible via domestic flights from Bangkok or direct international connections, though transfers aren’t included in the package price.
