ABOUT US
Home shala of Bangkok's Ashtanga community since 2013. Several of Bangkok's Ashtanga teachers practised and assisted here before opening their own shalas.
Welcome to the Ashtanga Yoga Center of Bangkok (AYBKK), your sanctuary for authentic Ashtanga yoga in bustling Bangkok. If you're on the hunt for a transformative experience guided by seasoned teachers, you've arrived.
Our Philosophy: More Than Just Asanas
At AYBKK, we're not just about bending and stretching; we follow the full spectrum of Ashtanga principles—from gazing and breathing to asanas and bandhas. Under the lineage of our esteemed gurus, Pattabhi Jois and Sharath Jois, we aim to master more than just the physical form.
Our Classes: traditional
We offer Mysore and Led Primary classes, sticking to the traditional schedule practiced in Mysore, India. But here's what sets us apart: we've been running a Led Intermediate Series for nearly a decade, a rarity that attests to the high level of dedication and skill among our students.
Your body, your practice.
Boonchu Tanti, your lead teacher with 16 years of experience, is dedicated to individualized growth. We'll pinpoint your weaknesses and sync our teaching with your energy level, helping you grow stronger, both mentally and physically.
Our Vision: Come as you are
Our doors are open to everyone. Some students arrive with years of practice, some arrive never having done a Sun Salutation. We guide each person one breath at a time, in the traditional way, six mornings a week. Practice is the teacher. We are here to help you keep showing up.
Visitors who already know the sequence are welcome to drop in. If you are new, start with a monthly package and we will teach you from zero.
Ready to Dive In?
If a disciplined, deep dive into the world of Ashtanga calls to you, AYBKK is your sanctuary. But don't just take our word for it; experience the challenge firsthand.
AYBKK is led by Boonchu Tanti, Authorized Level 2 by R. Sharath Jois, with Jamsai and M. In 2018 and 2024 we hosted R. Sharath Jois in Bangkok.
