Become a Master of Your Life

Learn the difference between moving through postures and truly practicing Yoga as the mental concentration required to align movement with breath, posture with chakra, body with mind. Imagine your body becoming an antenna precisely tuned to receive specific energy from the universe. Most people never experience that alignment. This week is where you begin to.

What This Week Is

Each day moves through a blend of asana, meditation, and philosophy — taught by Yogita and a team of experienced teachers rooted in the Hatha Yoga tradition. The teaching is designed so that you apply what you learn in the same moment you are learning it. The change you’re wishing for happens on the mat, in the breath between one posture and the next. Think of it as a recipe. Follow it and the result is consistent. After one week you feel different.

What Participants Say

★★★★★
"I loved it so much that I repeated it three times. It gives a broad understanding of yogic philosophy, theory, and practices — and how to integrate them into daily life. After years of suffering daily from digedstive issues, within two or three weeks of practice and the dietary changes recommended in the course, the issues had stopped."

★★★★★
"Joining Foundations of Yoga was a life-changing experience. I have been doing yoga for several years but now I understand what yoga really is. I loved the quality and how the teachers taught traditional Hatha Yoga while focusing on the chakras. I went to many yoga schools on Koh Phangan over the years but none had this knowledge. I am so happy to find this."

Life at Arcana

Arcana Wellness Village is a conscious living sanctuary on the island of Koh Phangan. Three spacious yoga shalas, a saltwater pool, spa, sauna, ice bath, cold plunge, natural pool, gym, and a vegan and vegetarian restaurant — set within a landscape of tropical beauty. There is a particular quality to time here. It slows down in the best way.

The food at Arcana is not an afterthought. Arcana’s vegan and vegetarian restaurant serves delicious, healthy food aligned with the yogic principles you are learning — what you eat, how you eat, and why it matters are part of the teaching.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need prior yoga experience?

No. Students new to yoga and those with years of practice attend the same week and both find it challenging and rewarding.

What is Tantric Yoga?

It is the path that works with energy, music, the mind, food, and the full experience of being alive — the opposite of renunciation. The body becomes an antenna, precisely tuned to receive specific energy from the universe. This is the lineage this course is rooted in.

How does the teaching work?

Every day follows a precise structure — morning lecture, mat practice, afternoon asana, evening Q&A. What you learn at 8:30 you apply by 9:00. Nothing stays theoretical for long.

What is the accommodation like?

Arcana offers four room types — Dormitory, Comfort Room, Deluxe Villa, and Boutique Suite — all within the sanctuary grounds. All include full access to the pool, gym, spa, sauna, ice bath, and natural pool. Breakfast is included with all rooms except the dormitory.

Is the food included?

Yes, if you are staying at Arcana — breakfast is included except for dormitory guests. If you are joining without accommodation, meals are not included.

Can I join only Week One?

Yes. Each week stands on its own. Attend one now and return for others across separate visits.

How do I get to Koh Phangan?

Fly into Koh Samui Airport (USM). From there, take a 10-minute taxi to Big Buddha Pier and board the Seatran Discovery ferry to Thong Sala Pier, journey time around 45 minutes. Book ferry tickets in advance at 12go.asia
