ThaiG Hub
The beginning of a new cycle
The 7 year cycle often marks the beginning and the end. The closing of our 7 year cycle in Shanghai (7 & 14yrs!) was the perfect time for us to switch gears and embark on a new journey.
After many years of learning, practicing and teaching Internal Arts & Meditation, we hope to now share these valuable practices in our new base in Koh Chang.
The ThaiG Hub
"A space dedicated to sharing the inner practices of Taiji, Meditation and Internal Arts."
Founded by the G's.
Our Taiji school is for local residents and long term visitors, and open to all visiting practitioners. Our aim is to create a hub for teachers and practitioners to come together regularly to train and learn through sharing mutual teachings and experiences.
Our shared inner practice of Taiji forms the foundations of the Hub, yet we also offer additional teachings and practices based in our field of expertise for mind, body and energy.
Koh Chang
With an estimated population of 10000 people, Koh Chang is the third largest island in Thailand, yet still less developed than Phuket and Koh Samui. As we believe these practices should be accessible for everyone, we chose Koh Chang over mainstream locations in order to share with those who may not have as much accessibility to such practices.
Its hidden charms offer the perfect balance of yin & yang. Local fisherman villages and strong community spirit exist harmoniously alongside modern tourism facilities. 80% of the island is a natural park consisting of beautiful beaches, mountains, waterfalls and rainforests. Ideal for those looking to reconnect with the simplicities of nature. It offers relaxation and quietness, yet plenty of leisurely activities such as kayaking, trekking, massages, and local restaurants to keep you entertained.
The Base
The ThaiG Hub base is a unique 2 Floor building with a mix of modern and Thai style design, surrounded by a lush garden and an abundance of nature. Our ground floor hosts our Taiji School- training and meditation space 120sqm). Available also for seminars and workshop hosting. Additionally our ThaiG Hub Homestay a 48sqm apartment, is also located on the ground floor. Our Reiki space is located on the 2nd floor where all our holistic treatments and workshops take place. As we live on base we are mostly available or around if you need us.
Situated in the quiet surroundings of Klong Prao village, it is an ideal setting for cultivating inner work in a peaceful tranquil environment, surrounded by the sounds of nature. We are slightly tucked away from the main street, yet conveniently located within walking distance from local beaches, restaurants and activities. Accommodation can be easily arranged in one of the many beautiful resorts around.

Support
Over the last year we raised a substantial amount which allowed us to bring this project to life. We would not have made it this far on our own so Thank You! If you supported please contact us when you wish to receive your exchange for training, treatments or accommodation :)
As we are now settled our focus is to build our community and share our practices. To help us maintain our longterm plans for our school please continue to support by sharing what we do with your communities, circles and social media. This is a huge help for us in reaching a wider network and to be able to work towards securing the base over the next few years.
Joining future seminars, workshops or treatments is of course however the best way to support not just us, but also your own inner growth :)
