OUR GUEST PRACTITIONERS
Thailand has always been a centre of excellence for well-being and enjoys an ever-expanding health and wellness philosophy. For as long as we can remember, Koh Samui and its islands have attracted Yogis, alternative Therapists and Healers for its unique vibrational energy and climate. We consider ourselves extremely lucky to count many of these unique professionals as friends and welcome a roster of Guest Practitioners to lead our guests in our Rituals.
COACH JARED FOOTE
GUEST MOVEMENT & MINDFULNESS
Canadian Native Jared Foote quit his corporate job to become a yoga teacher in India before starting his callisthenics coaching practice in Thailand. Jared studied Hatha and Ashtanga yoga at The Rishikesh Yoga Teacher Training Center, a holy city in the foothills of the Himalayas. As his practice deepened, he discovered a sense of true self and a deep understanding of the holistic nature of well-being and the connection between movement and mindfulness practices where body, mind, and spirit are truly one and the same.
Jared believes in taking an evolutionary approach to health and fitness, which is essential for peak performance and longevity. By combining bodyweight training practices like yoga, callisthenics, and primal movement he is able to guide you as to what your body has been naturally created to do, and develop a practice and programme of movement, mindfulness, and self-discovery that extends far beyond your island holiday.
RAISA GABRIELLI
GUEST YOGIC, SOUND & MEDITATION COACH
In 2018, Raisa Gabrielli ventured to Kathmandu, Nepal, to become a 200 Hours Yoga Alliance Certified yoga teacher. While there, she experienced the power of sound healing - especially when combined with yoga & breathwork. So, in 2019, Raisa became a certified sound healer, accredited by OhanaJo Studio; an award-winning wellness studio and one of the largest sound healing centres in Malaysia. Due to her traditional (Hatha) training in Nepal, and its emphasis on balance, her classes ensure the re-alignment of not only the body but also the mind & soul through sound healing & breathwork.
Typically, Raisa teaches ‘Yin Yang Yoga with Sound Healing’ and her signature ‘Fire Flow’ which incorporates Pilates, Barre, & H.I.I.T. Regardless of the class being taught, each focuses on connecting with and understanding the body, mind, & soul through precise cues, anatomical information, and thought-provoking prompts. The intention behind every class is to empower, as Raisa firmly believes that finding moments of stillness in a world constantly on the move is of utmost importance - not only for enhanced well-being but enhanced productivity in all areas of life.
