About the Retreat 
  
As city dwellers, it is easy to forget that we are also a part of nature. Our bodies being made of stardust, we are also undeniably connected to all things. In today's fast-paced world, it's essential to take a step back, breathe, and reconnect with our inner selves and the natural world.

Our facilitators, April and Yun, invite you to spend a few days away from the city and deep into the forests and hills of Chiang Mai. Thailand is home to a rich spiritual heritage and breathtaking landscapes, providing the perfect setting for a journey of self-discovery and transformation. Join us on this exclusive yoga retreat as we explore the intersection of nature, movement, and mindfulness, and rediscover our place within the world.

This retreat will include a trip to Chiang Mai city to enjoy the sights and sounds of Songkran Festival. 

About La Tierra 

Nestled in the lush hills of Northern Thailand, La Tierra offers an exclusive retreat experience for groups, teams, and leaders looking to connect, grow, and transform. Located just an hour from Chiang Mai’s International Airport, this 17-acre sanctuary is rich with greenery, fruit trees, a tranquil creek, and plenty of open space. Enjoy the charm of Lanna-style accommodations, savor delicious meals, and host transformative events in spaces like the 100 sqm Transformation Room or the expansive outdoor areas. From stargazing to exploring nearby cultural and adventure spots, La Tierra is more than a destination—it’s the space where everything grows.

About Yun Ng 

Yun started practicing Yoga at the age of 17 and has been training as a teacher since 2009. Her curiosity and thirst for knowledge keep her on the mat, fuelling her desire to learn and evolve every single day.

Recently, Yun's focus has shifted towards pre and postnatal yoga, influenced by her own experience as a new mother, which has strengthened her own postpartum recovery. She is also passionate about mobility, music and endurance sports, all of which continue to inspire and invigorate her. 

Yun's love for travel infuses her classes with an explorative spirit, evident in her creative sequencing, insightful alignment cues, and occasional mantra. She aims to guide her students in creating a seamless transition in and out of the yoga mat, using the tactical skills learned from yoga, from the sutras to mastering a handstand, to make sense of the world around them.
