Instructors
Megan Marcelle
Megan has always been fascinated by the workings of the mind, which is why she studied psychology at Edinburgh University. She found yoga after graduating when she travelled to Vietnam to work as an English teacher for local children. Megan has completed the following complimentary courses: Mindfulness in schools training, 300-hour yoga teacher training specialising in traditional Chinese medicine and Yin yoga in India, intensive training course with Usha Devi, Vipassana (10 days of silent meditation).
Retreat location
This ecolodge truly offers eco-tourism at its best – for them, exploration doesn’t mean exploitation. It is located between two seas, a sheltered bay and a beautiful and deserted 12- kilometer beach fringed by private beach coconut trees and virgin jungle. Koh Phra Thong is a place of vast natural diversity with thriving wildlife, lush nature and authentic culture still undisturbed by the mass tourism of Thailand.
The way they see it, responsibility has never been an obstacle, but rather a way to push creativity, helping redefine contemporary and meaningful luxury – less, but only the best. This can be seen in everything they do, from how they build the lodge, source products, interact with people and tailor experiences.

- Fresh buffet breakfast, selection of fresh tea, coffee, homemade jams, fresh fruit, pastries and hot menu options to choose from every morning at the Club House.
