The Warriors House is located in Saraphi area, about 20 minutes from Chiang Mai city centre, in a small Thai village, where life begins with the sunrise.
A place immersed in the silence of the nature, an excellent refuge from the modern life and its frenetic rhythms. A place to explore, where you can meditate and relax.
Open by reservation for Yoga and meditation. Private and small group classes. The Warriors House offers Yoga experience, intensive courses, workshops and retreats with the possibility to create one tailored for you. Any level is welcome.
WHY THE WARRIOR HOUSE WAS BORN
The Warriors House was born out of the need to take a step back from the hectic life that modern society would like to impose on us. So when we found this place, we thought it was the right one for us. We got lost in the countryside, in a place where at night you can still look up and see the stars, listen to the silence and feel the energy of nature.
WHY WE CHOSE THIS NAME
In this age – which the ancient Hindu scriptures identify as Kali Yuga, or the age of darkness, characterised by widespread spiritual ignorance – the warrior in each of us must emerge with determination. To fight his inner and outer limits. To achieve one’s goals.
This is the first reason why we decided to call this ‘gym for the spirit’, The Warriors House. A place where you can take care of yourself, away from the chaos of the city. To go back to the past, to see a future. In contact with nature, rediscovering the simple things we have too often forgotten, distracted by the banalities of modernity.
The second is because in Yoga, warriors, are Asanas (positions) important both for concentration and spiritual growth.
KRU PAO
Kru Pao has been a Yoga Alliance-recognised yoga teacher since 2019. Born in Thailand and raised in Italy, after university she spent a few years in London and then decided to return to her homeland, where she opened The Warriors House.
She studied various styles of Yoga with different international teachers: Hatha, Vinyasa Flow, Rocket, Iyengar, Hot Yoga and Ashtanga, and then specialised in Anusaranga, a fusion of Anusara Yoga and Ashtanga, where physical practice meets spiritual practice.
