28 Day 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training in Koh Phangan, Thailand

One Yoga’s 28-day, 200-hour training runs from a private beachfront resort on Koh Phangan, with classes held in a shala with a sea view rather than the studio-and-shared-house setup common to shorter trainings. The 23 teaching days across 28 total build in Sundays off, and the style list runs unusually wide for a single certification — Hatha, Vinyasa, Ashtanga, Yin, Restorative, Kundalini, Vipassana, and Tantra.

Accommodation is air-conditioned and on-property for all 27 nights, offered as either shared or private rooms depending on availability at booking. Meals cover a vegan or vegetarian breakfast and lunch buffet on the 23 teaching days — dinners and meals on the five days off aren’t included, so those fall to participants to sort locally. The 4.79 rating from 280 reviews is a substantial sample for a training of this length, giving more weight to the score than a program reviewed only a handful of times.

Watch out: meals stop at breakfast and lunch, and only on teaching days — anyone budgeting for the full 28 days should plan for dinners and five full days of self-catered or restaurant meals on top of the listed price of $2,099.

The certification itself is Yoga Alliance-accredited, arriving with a course manual, a graduation ceremony, and a complimentary One Yoga t-shirt and tote bag. Graduates also get 30 days of free access to One Yoga’s online studio, which the operator lists at over 900 classes, plus an optional lifetime add-on to the online 200-hour course for anyone who wants a permanent reference after leaving. Mats and props are provided for all sessions, so nothing beyond personal yoga clothing needs to travel in.

Insider Tip: the 30-day free access to the online studio is a genuine extension of the training rather than a marketing add-on — worth using in the weeks immediately after departure to reinforce sequencing and philosophy content while it’s still fresh, since the course manual alone won’t cover everything taught across 23 teaching days.

Koh Phangan has no airport of its own, so arrival means flying into Koh Samui or Surat Thani and finishing the trip by ferry — taxi transfers to the campus itself are listed as excluded, along with flights, visa fees, and travel insurance. Free cancellation applies at booking, worth using given how far in advance a month-long training typically needs to be planned around work and travel.
