Tantra is an ancient Asian philosophy that focuses on the channeling of universal energy from the macrocosm to the microcosm; from God or the Universe to the human being. The objective of Tantra is therefore to expand the awareness in all states of our consciousness by going beyond the compulsive and cyclical nature of the mind and body. Thus, Tantra Yoga is a form of yoga that teaches one to use his or her body to be free of the compulsive and cyclical nature of our body, and thereby experience more holistically, spiritually, and sensually. It is quite a misconception that Tantra Yoga is just about sex. Tantra yoga teaches its disciples how to use one’s energies to make one’s life more balanced. Through this, however, couples can learn to be more sensual and have better relationships.

Thong Nai Pan Yai is home to many yoga studios which offer Tantra Yoga. These yoga studios are ideal for both beginners and veterans. Most of these studios have trained yoga gurus as instructors and offer you authentic Tantra Yoga training. Many resorts and as well as The Yoga Studio; the premier yoga studio in Thong Nai Pan Yai, offer Tantra Yoga. So if you want to try out this ancient form of yoga that enhances the body, mind and soul, the beautiful region of Thong Nai Pan Yai is probably one of the best places to start.
