Private yoga on Koh Phangan, beginners truly welcome
Slow, somatic, one-to-one yoga in your own rhythm, anywhere on the island. Whether you’re stepping onto a mat for the first time, finding your feet after a few classes, or ready to go deeper into specific asanas and sequences, we begin exactly where you are. No keeping up with a crowded room. Just your body, gently met.

You don’t need to be flexible, fit, or experienced
Some people who message me have never really practised, or tried a class once and felt lost, rushed, or on display. Others have found a first spark and want to understand it more deeply. A private session makes room for all of it. It’s just you, me, and a pace that belongs to you.
This is for you if…
- You’ve never set foot on a mat
- You’re sure you’re “not flexible”
- Group classes feel too fast or too public
- You’re carrying an injury, or years at a desk
- You’ve had a taste and want to go deeper into specific poses or sequences
- You want to understand your body, not just follow along
Somatic yoga: led by sensation, not shapes
Rather than chasing a perfect pose, we slow down and listen to what your body is actually telling you. Every session is built around your limits, your boundaries, and your nervous system, so movement feels safe, grounding, and genuinely yours.
The feel
- Slow
- Tailored to your body
- No pushing, no forcing
- Breath-led
- All levels, all bodies
Just you, or a private container
One-to-one
The whole session is your space.
Couples & friends

Small private groups

Hi, I’m Markus
I teach a slow, somatic, deeply personal style of yoga, the kind of practice I wish I’d found when I first began. My work is about meeting each person exactly where they are, with patience and without judgement, so that even a first-ever session feels safe, simple, and yours.

Questions before you begin
Do I need any yoga experience?
None at all. Many of the people I teach are stepping onto a mat for the very first time. A private session is built entirely around you, so there’s nothing to keep up with and no wrong place to start. If you already practise, we can just as easily go deeper.
I’m not flexible or fit, can I still practise?
Yes, that’s exactly who private yoga is for. We move slowly, inside your own range, with no pushing or forcing. Flexibility is something practice grows over time, not something you need beforehand.
How long is a session and what does it cost?
A private session is 90 minutes for 2,500 THB. If you practise at the studio in Thong Sala, mats and props are available there (a small extra charge may apply). Ask me about packages if you’d like to practise regularly.
Where on Koh Phangan do you teach?
All over the island. I can come to your villa, resort, or garden, or you can practise with me at a professional studio in Thong Sala, where I’m regularly teaching at the moment. I also travel to Sri Thanu, Baan Tai, Chaloklum, Haad Rin, Wok Tum and beyond.
What style of yoga is it?
I don’t put myself in a single box. Every lineage (Hatha, Ashtanga and the rest) carries a profound depth, and what I share is a combination filtered through my own practice and expression. In a way there are eight billion styles of yoga, because every person and every practice is individual. Together, we’ll find yours.
Can I book with my partner or a small group?
Absolutely. As well as one-to-one, I teach couples, friends, and small private groups. Lovely for a villa, a retreat, or practising alongside someone you trust.
How do I book?
Just send me a message on WhatsApp with a little about where you’re staying and how you feel in your body. I usually reply within a day, and we’ll find a time.
