About Simon Low
Simon’s teaching reflects his training and ongoing studies with international teachers in many forms of Hatha and Classical yoga. After originally completing and becoming certified in Teacher Training and Advanced Yoga Therapy with Dr. Larry Payne at Samata International in Los Angeles, California, Simon has developed a unique and personal teaching style. While the classical teachings of Sri T Krishnamacharya and his primary students inform the foundations of Simon’s ‘yin and yang’ style yoga experience,his own teachings are augmented |

“The distant shores of silence begin “Over the years I have witnessed my students derive enormous enjoyment & benefit when committing to the experience of yoga on residential weekends and holidays. I myself enjoy greatly and am inspired by the natural surroundings, landscapes and peaceful environments of the chosen venues. This leads me to encourage students to explore the interior landscapes of their bodies, to experience energy and depth of the breath, and to discover and connect to the meditative peace and tranquility of their own unique spiritual essence.” Simon teaches regular classes exclusively at Triyoga and has been taking groups on weekends and holidays in the UK and abroad for ten years. |

YOGA HOLIDAYS ABROAD 2008
Each of our foreign destinations enjoys a unique location and special environment in which to practice yoga.
On arrival you will be given a full schedule. As a general guide, this includes two yoga classes a day, of at least two hours duration, taking place in the early morning before breakfast/brunch and in the late afternoon, avoiding the heat of the day. Dinner follows.
To allow for excursions or free time the yoga schedule usually has one free afternoon and one free morning. The sessions, all of which are optional, may include pranayama, meditation, or partner work. Sometimes chanting is a feature of the class and is especially enjoyable, for example, in the vine covered yoga space in Turkey.
The schedule allows plenty of time during the day for appointments with on-site massage therapists, excursions, trips to local villages, swimming, walking or simply relaxing and doing nothing!
Locations and prices are listed below.
Upon receipt of the booking form and deposit/full payment cheque you will be sent confirmation of your place, subject to availability, and closer to the date of your holiday all relevant info. including flight details (if applicable), detailed travel directions and a check list of things to bring.

THAILAND
Railei Beach Club, Krabi, & Khao Sok Lake
Railei Beach Club, where we stay, is a stunning private resort, with a wide selection of architect designed luxury villas, from 1-4 bedrooms. The resort is set in lush & beautiful tropical gardens, leading directly out to the beach, & surrounded by the magical limestone cliffs & islands the area if famous for. The beach has a variety of excellent restaurants & cafes, local shops, & beach bars. The beautiful yoga sala is at Bridge House, the largest house within this private community. Rock climbing is always available through professional climbing shops near RBC, also kayaking, diving, snorkeling, bird watching & speedboat trips around the surrounding islands.
Sensitive tourism development has actually benefited the varied wildlife found here, which includes primates, sea eagles, civet cats & others. The surrounding sea is studded with small craggy islands, white spits of sand & coral sea gardens.
We will eat in the excellent & inexpensive local restaurants on the evenings when our private chef is not cooking dinner at Railei Beach Club. We will however enjoy Deng’s fabulous cooking at daily brunch at RBC.
Khao Sok offers sensational lake & cliff vistas, kayaking, primary rainforest, extraordinary wildlife (including hornbills & gibbons), & amazing Thai food featuring freshwater lake fish & rainforest grown vegetables. Many consider the Khao Sok National Park to be one of the most beautiful national parks in South East Asia. The pristine moist evergreen forest abounds with wildlife & fascinating plants. The park provides an adventure for botanists, environmentalists, naturalists & anyone interested in exploring plant & wildlife in a rain forest. The mountains in the park are intersected by a range of limestone karsts (tall cliff-like formations, some nearly 1000 metres), leftovers of a coral reef system that stretched across the seas of South-East Asia millions of years ago.
Simon will teach twice daily yoga classes in the Yin & Yang styles, & treatments can be arranged with experienced Thai Massage therapists. Simon will have an assistant for all yoga classes at both venues. Simon is also in constant contact with his good friends Dick & Beth Balsamo, who have been resident in Thailand for over 20 years, & have homes at Railei Beach & Khao Sok. They are still working almost full-time on raising & distributing aid directly to Thai villages that were affected by the tsunami, but have missed out on the distribution of aid & assistance from the large international aid organizations. Dick & Beth will be present during most of our trip, & together with Simon, will carefully & thoughtfully ensure that our time & money is well spent in all the right places, & that this yoga holiday is an organised, enlightening and fun-filled adventure.
The holiday schedule & internal transportation information will be sent to you approx 3 weeks before departure. Any required ‘arrivals’ bus transfer bookings will be arranged well in advance of your arrival.
Each student will need to carry Thai baht for restaurant/café meals, shopping & bus / boat transfer charges, beverages, & personal expenditure.
NB: It is a condition of this vacation that each person has personal travel insurance appropriate to activity and fitness centred holidays..
