I attended the intensive Hot Yoga 26 & 2 Teacher Training course at Kata Hot Yoga over the summer, and it was truly a life-changing experience. Having practiced 26 & 2 hot yoga for over ten years, I’ve long appreciated its benefits—but following several health challenges in recent years, including a hip replacement and arthritic shoulders, I’ve become forever indebted to the healing power of this yoga. Both mentally and physically, it has supported my recovery in ways I can’t overstate. This practice is genuinely underrated for its incredible healing benefits. While I never set out with a burning desire to teach, I wanted to deepen my understanding of the postures and the philosophy behind the practice. The training turned out to be the most demanding challenge I have ever undertaken—certainly not for the faint-hearted! The five and a half weeks were intense and unforgettable, filled with two 90-minute hot yoga classes a day, posture clinics, lectures, and daily assessments. At times, I questioned the methods and the purpose behind certain aspects of the training and was simply told to “trust the process.” That wasn’t easy at first, and memorizing the dialogue verbatim often felt impossible. But despite the physical and mental exhaustion (and there were plenty of tough days!), the beautiful paradise setting of Kata Beach kept me grounded and motivated to see it through. Along the way, I met incredible people from around the world—some of whom have become lifelong friends. I’ll always be grateful to Govert and Eric for their tough yet compassionate guidance, encouragement, and unwavering belief in me. Their passion and knowledge for Hot Yoga 26 & 2 are truly inspiring. Although I started the course unsure if I’d ever teach, I’ve returned to the UK now proudly leading Hot Yoga classes. It would feel like a waste not to share what I’ve learned—the knowledge is too rich and rewarding to keep to myself. If you’re looking for a challenge that will push you to your limits while deepening your understanding of Hot Yoga 26 & 2 and its philosophy, I cannot recommend the Kata Hot Yoga Teacher Training highly enough. It’s an experience that will stay with you forever.
first time trying hot yoga and it was an incredible and challenging experience! teacher who isnt native speaker can be difficult to understand if you are a beginner. owner isnt friendly and blatanlty ignored me when I said hi and bye.

Tips for Visiting Wellness & Spas
Learn Wat Pho First
Wat Pho in Bangkok is the birthplace of traditional Thai massage education. Their on-site massage pavilion offers excellent treatments from students and graduates at reasonable prices — and you know the technique is authentic.
Communicate Pressure Preferences
Thai massage can be intense. Say 'bao bao' for lighter pressure or 'nак nак' for harder. A good therapist will check in, but don't hesitate to speak up — suffering in silence defeats the purpose.
Book Longer Sessions
A 60-minute massage is fine, but 90 or 120 minutes allows the therapist to work thoroughly. The price difference is often only 200–400 THB for an extra hour — worth it for a deeper, more relaxing experience.
