Anahata Yoga Shala

Anahata Yoga Shala is an open-air shala on the upper floor of Sandy Bay Resort on Haad Yao Beach, on Koh Phangan's west coast, with a sea view straight over the sand. It is a simple space – no reception, changing rooms or fans, and a metal roof – so classes are cancelled in heavy rain, with updates posted in a WhatsApp group.

The main drop-in class runs every day from 8:30 to 10am: Hatha/Vinyasa Flow followed by meditation, open to all levels including complete beginners. Group aerial yoga in hammocks runs from 10:30am for a minimum of two people and must be booked via WhatsApp before 10am; private aerial sessions are also available.

Regular classes need no booking – just arrive five to ten minutes early, as late arrivals are not admitted. A class costs ฿400, with five- and ten-class packages valid for two months; aerial yoga is ฿500. The shala is open daily except 25 December and 1 January.
