Why teachers join

Students losing motivation in their first year?

Yoga is a journey, not a race. But for beginners it is a hard one, and it gives little reward in the first months. When students don't feel progress, enthusiasm drops and some stop coming.

What if you could help them feel real progress in a single class?

Thai stretching gives you hands-on tools to guide a student deeper into an asana, safely and with less effort. Students gain confidence, better alignment and flexibility they thought was out of reach, and your classes become more dynamic and rewarding for both of you.

What you'll learn

Thai massage, taught for yoga

Every technique starts from the asana: which muscles limit the pose, and how to release them so your student can go deeper.

Assist with confidence

Step-by-step techniques to support your students in their asanas, with safe positioning for you and for them.

Read the body in the pose

Understand which muscles and joints hold a student back in a pose, so you know what to work on and why.

Stretching that lasts

Advanced Thai stretching for alignment and flexibility, ready to use in your classes, private sessions and retreats.

Your instructor

Gigi

I am a certified Thai massage teacher and therapist, trained at the Old Medicine School and at ITM in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I moved to Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, in 2021 and founded Santa Teresa Thai Massage, where I have worked with more than 2,000 clients, many of them yogis and yoga teachers.

The idea for this workshop came from a client, Maria, who struggled with Lotus Pose. It was the first time I used Thai massage techniques with the anatomy of one specific asana in mind, and the results surprised us both. Since then I have built my teaching for yoga teachers around the asanas.

In the workshop I share the techniques that make the biggest difference, so you can bring them straight into your classes.
