This is your chance to explore the golden wellness capital of Asia, where ancient traditions meet modern relaxation. Don’t miss out on this transformative experience!

A portion of this journey will be dedicated to exploring the enchanting city of Chiang Mai, home to more temples per square mile than any other city in the world! Witness the serene sight of barefoot monks gliding through the streets, collecting alms as they prepare for the magical Loi Krathong festival.

​

Together, we’ll celebrate this sacred tradition by releasing glowing lanterns into the night sky and floating beautifully adorned flower rafts down the river. Immerse yourself in the vibrant parades, temple ceremonies, and joyful celebrations as the entire city comes together to cleanse their karma and set heartfelt intentions for the future.​​

​

The second half of our adventure takes us to Pai, the epitome of Thailand’s natural beauty and charm. Here, we’ll reconnect with nature through invigorating hikes, strolls across picturesque bamboo bridges, and breathtaking sunset views at Pai Canyon. This carefully curated trip is designed to be completely hassle-free, allowing you to fully unwind, embrace the moment, and soak in the magic of Thailand.

​

The course is tailored to Massage Therapists and Yoguis who want to incorporate new technics to their practice. We will emerge in the therapeutic culture of Lanna and learn the Thai Fire Massage, the hammer massage and more. You will complete the course able to deliver a powerful Thai Yoga Massage. Check out the schedule for more information.

Depart at least a day in advance to arrive on FRIDAY the 31st of October. You can fly from anywhere to Chiang Mai to be early and be ready to start the trip officially on Friday. You can fly into Bangkok and take a domestic flight up to Chiang Mai (if you get in early enough to connect)…or you can fly directly to Chiang Mai. We recommend flying through Seoul on Korean Air to Chiang Mai as a good option.

​

​Meals for arrival day and any day before are not included in the trip but the rooms are reserved for any extra prearrival nights you request and we do pick you up and schedule you for a massage as soon as possible (included!) We personally feel we need a couple of days to just do nothing and acclimatize from the big time difference. The arrival day is for settling in and restoring after traveling. Participants will be arriving at various times, even several days prior. What is included is your pick-up from the airport, welcome package, a great orientation map, and your first Thai massage! You may do some light walking to get oriented with our neighborhood just outside the old walled city of Chiang Mai, and get settled into your hotel at the SUGAR CANE. Take a dip in the pool to celebrate arriving from the plane journey!

  • Reusable container, waterbottle, utensils and straw

  • Hairdyers are provided in hotels.

  • Light wrap or shawl to cover shoulders in temples (can be bought there easily but we hit the temples pretty quickly).
