I've looked forward to taking classes from Gernot over the past two years whenever I'm in Chiang Mai. His knowledge of anatomy and biological reasons behind certain yoga positions and practices is very appealing to anyone who has a science background. There is a spiritual side to be sure, but I have never know any other yoga teacher with this unique perspective. I was very pleased to learn Gernot is offering online yoga classes during the pandemic, and I would urge any yogi to try his classes. Thank you Gernot for putting your class online!

Located in the heart of Chiang Mai's moated core is Pranom's Health Massage shop. Stroll around this small park's perimeter path near Wawee Coffee and you will see the shop. The open front of the shop will reveal busy masseuse working with their clients . The displayed tariffs show the various massages offered at very reasonable prices e.g Thai Traditional Massage for one hour - 150 thb. It can serve up to 12 clients at any one time so you shouldn't have to wait long to be served.

Y'all. I asked my local host where I should go for an authentic thai massage and they suggested Pranom. This place is nothing fancy as it's in a little strip-mall type place. You can do a full body or foot 1 hr massage (Do the full body if you love yourself). Remove your shoes before you enter, and they'll give you flexible pants to change into. You lay on a mat in a little cubicle and your masseuse will stretch and massage your entire body. Fans blow on you making it cool even though it's open air. It's perhaps the most relaxing thing I've ever done. I went back two days in a row after lots of walking and physical activity. Best of all? It's incredibly cheap. At the time, about $6 USD, $7 after I tipped. Incredible. I still dream about this place.

I took the Body and Mind Healing course in Reiki and QiGong and both were amazing physically and emotionally. Rod is the best teacher I have ever worked with. He has no ego and his humility makes learning from him completely accepting. NO matter where you are physically or emotionally, you are welcome. Body and mind positive focus. I was insecure about my fitness level and it made zero difference for the practice. Rod has so much experience and confidence that is based on happiness and good feelings, not torture yourself for results. I loved the space he holds his classes in, there is a sense of calm and peaceful energy. The practices I learned in 2 weeks will change the rest of my life. I wouldn't go to another teacher for anything. He is the best. He even uses humor, which is so appreciated in a time when there is so much challenge in the world. There is a herbal fruit smoothie shop on site, run by his spouse and they also have supplements that help promote well-being, immunity and energy. I am grateful I found Body and Mind healing and hope that you give it a try too. There is a reason you are looking into it, please just go!

In search of a strong massage , I visited Orn twice during my stay in Chiang Mai. The first time I booked a traditional Thai massage with Orn herself. As soon as she started massaging my back I knew I had come to the right place as she had an understanding of the body and its muscles, working into tight spots and kneading out the tension. It was definitely a strong massage and I flinched in pain at some of the more tight spots while Orn advised me “no pain no gain” ???? She was right . I felt an instant sense of lightness and relaxation after my treatment. It was so good I booked a massage a few days later but this time with balm to work deeper into my muscles. This was even better ! Orn worked deep into my muscles all over my body with attention , care and KNOWLEDGE. Again a little sore in spots but afterwards I felt amazing. My neck felt less stiff , my shoulders dropped away from my ears and my back felt more flexible. These were my main areas of focus along with my wrist and fore arm which gets sore from using a mouse and keyboard. If you are looking for a STRONG massage then I highly recommend booking here. It is not relaxing in a day spa kind of way but the benefits of releasing tension from your body far outweighs a temporary sense of bliss. Don’t come here if you want some oils lightly massaged onto your skin. Do come here if you need to work out all the knots and blockages in your body. Both times I had orn for my massages but my partner had the other ladies she works with who he says were equally good.Call ahead as this place is busy! Thank you Orn!

Bangarang is a great place to learn Muay Thai what ever level you maybe or attend the Boot camp to improve your fitness. From the moment you are collected at the airport by Nuk the realible and safe driver, all your needs are looked after by the staff with a pleaseant welcome at the main front receiption when you arrive. The ladies here can solve any additional requirements you require and all staff speak english. The rooms are supberb, very clean with air con and kept clean by the gang of experienced and very friendly staff. The training facilities are wonderfully only made better by the trainers who have all fought at one time and are excellent at not only training you but helping with your weaknesses and encouraging you when it gets tough, a special thanks to Boat who helped me with some private lessons on this trip. The camp is in an area of tranquillity with wonderfull walks right on your doorstep into the rice fields and the use of the swimming pool at lunch time to ease the aches and pain from the morning session. This is my second visit and I will be back again soon also helped by the proximity to Chiang Mai which is reachable by taxi for 300 baht yet far enough away to concentrate on the training. You will also meet people from around the world and create new friendships. Bangarang is definately worth the visit

This was my first time of intentional silence, and it turned out to be a different experience than what I expected (in a good way). The way Blandine, Uriel and Radu combined meditation, yoga, lectures, inspirational videos, the delish food, the mountain settings, and the accommodation itself was truly beautiful. This 10-day silent meditation retreat truly was an incredible experience of shifting perceptions about God, Ego, Love, disconnection from my true self, and reconnection to my true self. Thank you Blandine, Uriel and Radu for sharing your wisdom (a true goldmine!) and for providing a supportive environment in which to explore our inner world.

I started practicing yoga after covid lock down in July, before that I practiced at home by following some app or went to gym take group class. By chance I visited Kru Nok’s yoga studio in JJ market. I have to say it’s completely different from other places, it’s really great to practice yoga like this, detailed instructions, warm but powerful adjustment, quite and joyful meditation. I gained the energy and peace during each practice. From then on I never stop, I almost joined the practice everyday. As I wanted to know more about yoga, Kru Nok gave me lots of encouragement to take the TTC which I’ve never thought about, but I really did it. All the teachers here are knowledgeable, professional, kind, and patient, I can feel their love to yoga, to all the students. It’s one of the most wonderful experience in my life to learning from Kru Nok, Master Anil, Kru Meeny, Kru Jane and Kru Biw. And I guess it will be a reason for me to stay longer in Chiang Mai so I can practice yoga here longer! Strongly recommend it to all!

This was my first yoga class in several months, and it was such a joy! Challenging and healing and energizing! The yoga teacher, Ning, encouraged me to work hard to achieve positions that I thought might be beyond my ability. She also respected my needs to stop and breathe. The studio was beautiful and clean. Overall, the class was so lovely that it made me decide to pick yoga up again. Unfortunately, I do not live in Chiang Mai. If I lived in Chiang Mai, I would be here all the time.

definitely feel pampered here and had a chance to relax... though many come to Thailand for the massages for incredibly low prices on the streets, I wanted the usual spa experience (and the cleaniliness) and you can get that here at half the cost of same treatments in the U.S. My husband and I had a couples one hour aromatherapy massage with Zee and Tay. I also opted for a body scrub on a different day with Ao. All three of them provided wonderful service. We were guests at the hotel, but even if you are not, still highly recommend this spa. Book early for optimal times. They had a special on purchase of spa items of at least 1300bht for a one hour massage- excellent deal and we bought aromatic diffusers as cute souvenirs for our daughters.
