I am 72 years old and was looking for a place to improve my overall physical fitness and lose some weight. I found this retreat online and spent 4 weeks with a very friendly participants and coached by professional members.
Although the retreat offered accommodation and three meals, I preferred to stay in a resident nearby the retreat and follow my own diet. It was a memorable experience which helped me improve my fitness and regain my self-confidence.

Most life experiences take some time to digest and settle in.
I was living ca. 6 months in the Kung Fu Retreat back in 2018/2019 and it was one of the most enriching experiences of my life so far.
I tried the Kung Fu Retreat for a week and that visit had such an impact on me that I decided to immerse in it.
When you visit the Kung Fu Retreat for a week or a month that will most likely be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life.
When you stay at the Kung Fu Retreat for over 3 or more months, that will most likely be one of the most transformative experiences of your life. However, it is possible that you only get to notice that sometime later.
Like one of the Nam Yang Kung Fu Retreat instructors said to me once “Kung Fu is a process, not an event. Trust the process.” The process doesn’t happen overnight. It happens day to day as you do your practice, day to day as you place awareness upon yourself by using your breath and your body to be fully in the now.
The Kung Fu retreat will give you techniques and exercises that will accompany you throughout your life, that you can take back to your day-to-day life to help you handle the situations that come up in your life with serenity and balance, therefore contributing to your community by being truly grounded in yourself. It may also give you friends for life to whom you will be connected regardless of your geographic location (and I can tell you that it is quite an experience to be reunited with these people again “back in the real world”).
Master Iain is a man who dedicated all his life to Kung Fu and who is committed to sharing this art with younger generations to empower balance and awareness. He has created a beautiful retreat that provides you with exactly what you need to get the best out of the experience. The location is quite magical, in the mountains in Pai, and the commodities are simple and modest, allowing you to fully concentrate on what truly matters. With all the excess and business of modern times, it can be quite peaceful to live in such a place for a while. The instructors are dedicated senior students who diligently show you the practices from scratch as Master Iain guides everyone into the art of living Kung Fu.
Being at the Kung Fu Retreat is a transformative experience that one can take back to daily life, and that will ultimately transform the way we live.
The teachings I received from living at the Kung Fu Retreat are beyond words, and writing this text is a mere way to express the energy of my gratitude for this experience that will be with me for as long as I live. Thank you!

Escape the incessant buzz of everyday life and embark on a transformative journey at the Nam Yang Kung Fu Retreat in Pai, Thailand. This is not your typical spa getaway; it's an authentic Kung Fu camp where the simple, functional accommodations contribute to a deeper, more meaningful experience. The spartan setting strips away distractions, fostering a unique serenity that refreshes both mind and soul.
During my ten-week stay at Nam Yang, I discovered a profound sense of peace. Picture this: sitting quietly outside my room, overlooking the lush Pai valley, completely immersed in the tranquility of nature—no phones, no laptops, no TV. This opportunity to unplug was not just rare; it was rejuvenating.
The retreat begins each day with early morning sessions that are as peaceful as they are meditative, greeting the sunrise amidst the tranquil Thai countryside. The Kung Fu training includes extensive stretching and conditioning, paving the way to master the art's techniques. The instructors at Nam Yang are not only highly skilled but also genuinely supportive and engaging, always ready to assist and enrich your learning experience.
Physically, I left Nam Yang much stronger, but the mental clarity and inner strength I gained were even more significant. Kung Fu here is taught as a defensive, calming art, promoting virtues like courage, confidence, and clarity—qualities that enhance life's zest without the aggressive competitive edge found in other martial arts.
Just a short distance from the retreat, the town of Pai offers a gentle, welcoming atmosphere with its laid-back, hippie vibe and exceptionally friendly locals.
Would I return to Nam Yang? Without a doubt. For anyone looking to transform physically and mentally, while finding peace away from the modern world’s chaos, Nam Yang Kung Fu Retreat is an adventure waiting to happen.

Great food, 5* gym, wonderful proximity to nature. The excitements of Pai are accessible while still feeling like you’re on a retreat. Great energy of respect and sincerity on the one hand, friendliness on the other. The training is structured and well thought out. I am massively grateful for my time here.
Master Iain is a world-class teacher whose unshakeable calm resonates around the entire retreat.

My two weeks at Nam Yang Kung Fu Retreat were amazing. I learned a lot about Kung Fu, Chi Kung, and meditation, and it was a really good experience overall. However, I got dizzy towards the end of my second week and fainted during my morning routine. Everyone at the school was really helpful, and they made sure I got the medical help I needed. Even though I couldn't practice during my last week because of the doctor's advice, Master Ian was very kind and professional and offered me a free week if I wanted to come back later.
Despite the accident, I have great memories from my time there. Learning Kung Fu and meditation was stunning, and I gained some wisdom along the way.
One of the best moments was when Master Ian took us for an outdoor meditation session at the canyons in Pai. It was unique. It's been over two years, but I hope to return someday and learn more.

I went to the retreat in Thailand, to learn about Chi Kung. Not being distracted from anything, just be there in the moment and think about myself. After a chat with master Iain i decided to take the warrior course where chi kung would be included. Hard work pays off they say, they are right! I am now back home for well over a month and i am still thinking about my time in the retreat. Incorporating the daily routine i had there in my daily live in the netherlands. Its not easy but a wise man once said, start and don't give up! Everybody in the retreat is super friendly, knowledgable and willing to help you.

This was the second time I visited this place. My first visit was last year at the same time for 2 weeks and this time again in Nov for 2 weeks. The experience has been just wonderful and I have no words to express my gratitude towards Nam Yang. Witnessing people from 18 - 70 years training together is a nice feeling. It was like a family. I felt more connected to people around and developed more confidence and peace of mind giving me the ability to not react immediately. I feel more relaxed and powerful at the same time. My mind feels controlled and calm. I d recommend everyone to at least visit this place for 2 weeks and see the difference in yourself. I hope I get another chance again to visit this place.
I have given a detailed review of my experience last time. Check this out:

I have just completed the 200 hour Qigong Instructor training course at Nam Yang Kung Fu retreat and it has been one of the best courses I have ever attended. The instructors who delivered the course were very professional, friendly and knowledgeable and no question was left unanswered. Personal attention was given to each of us to assist in fine tuning our practices. I arrived a bit overweight and thanks to the physical classes, I am now fit and toned and feeling very strong. The meditation classes were fantastic and have taken me deeper than I have ever gone previously. The schedule is structured so you have plenty of time to practice the routines in between classes. Master Iain has created a beautiful safe space here to learn and grow. If you are thinking about taking this course, I highly recommend it. Your life will be positively changed forever.

Just completed the 4 week Qigong teacher training at Nam Yang and it was a truly life changing experience! The course itself was really in depth and covered so many topics and the teachers were so professional and passionate about their subjects.
The teaching quality was excellent - the knowledge and experience of the teachers was evident from day 1 and I have learned soooo much over the 4 weeks. Overall I was really impressed by the course structure and content. It was hard work, but so enjoyable and I felt like I have learnt as much as I possibly could in 4 weeks!
The place itself is stunning - you feel as though you're in the middle of nowhere, being surrounded by rolling hills and beautiful views, but actually it's only a 10 minute scooter ride away from Pai town, where there are loads of restaurants, shops and cafes, so the location is ideal. The accommodation at the retreat is simple, but to a good standard, and is well maintained. The food is great and it's lovely how everyone eats together, so there's a real community feel :)
I already miss my Nam Yang family, but hopefully I'll return in the not so far future.
Thank you so much Master Iain and all of the Nam Yang team for such an awesome 4 weeks, and now I'm a qualified Qigong teacher (!) and can't wait to put all my new knowledge and skills into practice :) 👌

We travelled from Australia to do our 200 hr QiGong ( Chi Kung) Teacher training course & have enjoyed every minute. The retreat is situated in a most beautiful part of Thailand & the course was extremely comprehensive being taught by some fabulously experienced teachers lead by Master Iain Armstrong. The teachers are passionate about their skills & teach with enthusiasm & expertise. We have just finished our 4week intensive course & are leaving very satisfied & much more confident & enthused to share & teach our QiGong experience back home in Australia. I was most impressed with Master Iain being so hands on with our course, very professional & encouraging which truly enhanced our time at Nam Yang Kung Fu/ QiGong retreat.

Thank you
Scritta in data 24 dicembre 2018
Hi! I’m not sure if this would be our kind of thing but we are intrigued and was wondering is it possible to do a 1 day taster class or afternoon session? How much would this cost also! Thanks :)

Dear Danielle,
Very many thanks for your mail. You will be most welcome at our Kung Fu retreat!
Yes, we do have Day Course training sessions.
Unifying the mind, body and spirit is at the core of our practice so we certainly expect to be able to help you achieve your goals.

We specialise in developing self-esteem, confidence and all round fitness and will be very happy to help you achieve your personal goals.
Here is our schedule with prices for our Day Course Sessions:
Morning training: 700 Thai Baht. 6.00 – 9.15am Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday.

Just let us know the date that you intend to come and the sessions that you are interested in so we can take note of it.
Do please consider residential training, though, as it will give you the full ‘Retreat’ experience. Most people tell us that they get a lot more out of staying here.
If you have any more questions or need any help, please message us here or send us an email.
We very much look forward to meeting you all, Danielle!

Hi! I am looking to come to Nam Yang Retreat with my boyfriend in September (roughly around 22nd September) - I notice you do not train on Saturdays or Wednesdays, when is the best day to arrive?
We are both beginners to martial arts, and I have some problems with my back. Would this be an issue?
We would ideally stay for one week - is this enough time?
Thanks
Scritta in data 19 luglio 2018
Dear Sammi,
Very many thanks for your message. You and your boyfriend will be most welcome at our Kung Fu Retreat!
Yes, we do presently have availability for the dates which you have asked for.
Unifying the mind, body and spirit is at the core of our practice so we certainly expect to be able to help the both of you achieve your goals. We have a great track record in using our ancient but sophisticated arts to help people like yourselves transform themselves physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. We specialise in developing self-esteem, confidence and all-round fitness and will be very happy to help you achieve your personal goals.
Most of our students are complete beginners so we are very used to getting people like yourselves off to a strong start.
The cost per person for 1 week is $459 US for a room shared between two.
Yes, you can certainly attend the Retreat even for just a week, and still achieve an enriching experience. Many of our students learn a great deal about themselves while staying here, as you will see from our reviews here on Trip Advisor. It would of course be better if you could stay for longer, but you will still learn a variety of things while you are here for a short time and it will give you a good introduction to Kung Fu, qi gong, and meditation.
There are no fixed start and end dates for our courses and the students can begin at any time that they prefer or on the day that they arrive, but we are strongly recommending new students to arrive on a Wednesday or Saturday. Wednesdays and Saturdays are rest days so if you arrive in these days, you will be able to relax and prepare yourself for your early morning training the next day.
The restdays are a great opportunity for our students to relax, meditate, workout at our kung fu gym or explore the local dishes and the attractions in Pai.
With regards to your back problem, Master Iain and the rest of the team assure you that we should be able to work around it and will look after you. We would be happy to offer you advice. We are a very friendly group here and we adapt our training to each individual student so will be happy to accommodate you.
If you have any more questions or need any help, please send us a message here or email us, and we will be glad to help you out. :)
We very much look forward to having you and your boyfriend here with us at our Kung Fu Retreat, Sammi!

Hey! I was wondering how much time you'd suggest to train for someone who've never been exposed to Kung Fu? And also, how much does it cost?
Thanks!

Dear Daniel,
Very many thanks for your interest. You will be most welcome at our Kung Fu Retreat!
We do presently have availability for different dates, length of stay, and room types. It would be useful to know the dates that you intend to come to confirm availability.
Unifying the mind, body and spirit is at the core of what we practise here so we should certainly be able to help you achieve your goals. Building confidence and self-esteem, as well as physical fitness are our specialty and I am sure that we can achieve a great transformation in you. The physical and mental training in our Shaolin Warrior Program will allow you to reach the innumerable benefits of qi gong, meditation, and Kung Fu training. Most of our students are complete beginners so we are very used to getting people like yourself off to a strong start.
It is hard to give an average length of stay, but we recommend staying for as long as possible. Training for 1 - 3 months is incredibly beneficial. A 2-month stay would be a lot more productive and ideal than one month.
The cost for 1 month is $2160 US for a private room or $1559 US for a room shared between two.
For 2 months, it is $4320 US for a private room or $3118 US for a shared room.
For 3 months, it is $6000 US for a private room or $4313 US for a shared room.
We do adjust our teaching to suit your goals and fitness level, but I would also like to recommend that you take the Intensive Introductory Course alongside the Shaolin Warrior Program.
If you book the Intensive Introductory Course, you will get an extra 5 hours per week of individualised training, which runs during the long mid-day break in the program. We use the intensive course to focus on the more difficult elements of the training. The price for the Intensive Introductory Course is $200 US / person for 2 weeks. This course is ‘optional’, but extremely useful for those without prior experience of our arts.
If you have any more questions, kindly ask. When you are ready to book, please let me know.
We very much look forwards to having you at our Retreat, Daniel!
Iris, personal assistant to Master Iain.

* Pour aller de Chiang Mai à Pai:
Vous pouvez choisir un vol (environ 1900 Baht), un minibus (environ 200 Baht) ou un taxi (environ 4 100 Baht). Le minibus est le plus populaire avec un court trajet en taxi la dernière partie du trajet.
Vol de Chiang Mai à Pai - Vous pouvez essayer de vérifier la disponibilité de temps en temps car il n'y a pas de vols vers Pai pour le moment. Donc, vous devrez peut-être utiliser le minibus ou le taxi comme option alternative. Les deux fonctionnent 7 jours par semaine.
Minibus de Chiang Mai à Pai - Le prestataire de bus le plus populaire est AYA. Leur bureau à Chiang Mai n'est plus à la gare. Le service AYA est maintenant basé près de Tesco. La nouvelle adresse est Kamthiang Plaza, 60-60 / 1 Srimonkol Rd., Patan Muang, Chiangmai 50300. Pour s'y rendre depuis l'aéroport, prendre un taxi avec un compteur. Ça devrait être facile. Une fois que vous arrivez, réservez sur le prochain minibus disponible si vous n'avez pas déjà réservé. Les minibus circulent entre 7h30 et 17h00. Si vous passez la nuit à Chiang Mai, vous devriez être en mesure de trouver une chambre dans une maison d'hôtes pour environ 500 - 600 Baht / nuit.Même après avoir ajouté le coût des repas, les taxis etc cela fonctionne moins cher qu'un taxi pour Pai. Vous pouvez ensuite prendre un minibus à Pai le matin. Bien sûr, vous ne pourrez faire la séance d'entraînement du matin que si vous prenez le taxi.
Un taxi de Chiang Mai à Pai - Nous pouvons certainement organiser un taxi pour venir vous chercher à l'aéroport de Chiang Mai si vous le souhaitez. Les taxis coûtent environ 4100 Baht. Il y a aussi des taxis en dehors de l'aéroport - je vous conseille d'accepter un prix avant de partir.
* De la ville de Pai à la retraite:
The Retreat est à environ 30 minutes à pied du centre de la ville de Pai, à environ 15 minutes de la périphérie. Le moyen le plus simple, le moins cher et le plus facile d'aller de l'aéroport à la retraite est en taxi. Pour un taxi appelez le 0810234483. Le trajet devrait prendre environ 5 minutes. Le coût pour un taxi est d'environ 250 Baht. La moto-taxi est de 100 Baht. Demandez 'Kung Fu' ou Kun Iain / Kun Pu.
Si vous avez d'autres questions, s'il vous plaît envoyez-nous un mail. Lorsque vous êtes prêt à réserver, s'il vous plaît laissez-nous savoir.
Nous sommes impatients de vous accueillir bientôt à notre retraite. Didier!

Dear Didier,
Very many thanks for your mail. You will be most welcome at our Kung Fu Retreat!
We do presently have availability. It would be useful to know the dates that you intend to come, as well as your intended length of stay.
Unifying the mind, body and spirit is at the core of what we practise here so we should certainly be able to help you achieve your goals. Building confidence and self esteem, as well as physical fitness are our specialty and I am sure that we can achieve a great transformation in you. The physical and mental training in our Shaolin Warrior Program will allow you to reach the innumerable benefits of Kung Fu training.
English is the common language here and all lessons are conducted in English. Conversation between students is almost always in English.
From Bangkok, you have the option to take a plane, train or bus to Chiang Mai. From Chiang Mai, you can then choose to travel to Pai via flying, taking a minibus or a taxi.
You may find the travel information below:
*From Bangkok to Chiang Mai:
Upon arriving in Bangkok, you have the option to take a flight to Chiang Mai, get an overnight sleeper train from Bangkok’s central station, Hua Lam Pong, or choose the cheapest option of getting an overnight coach in Kao San Road. You can also catch a government-run bus going to Chiang Mai at Bangkok's Northern and Northeastern bus terminal or Mo Chit. Taking the flight is the most ideal.
*To get from Chiang Mai to Pai:
You could choose a flight (approx. 1900 Baht), minibus (approx. 200 Baht) or taxi (approx. 4,100 Baht). Minibus is the most popular with a short taxi ride the last part of the way.
You can try checking for availability every now and then as there are no flights to Pai at the moment. So you may need to use minibus or taxi as an alternative option. Both run 7 days a week.
Minibus from Chiang Mai to Pai - The most popular minibus provider is AYA service. Their office in Chiang Mai is no longer at the train station. AYA service is now based near Tesco. The new address is Kamthiang Plaza, 60-60/1 Srimonkol Rd., Patan Muang, Chiangmai 50300. To get there from the airport, take a taxi with a meter. It should be easy. Once you arrive, book on to the next available minibus if you have not booked already. Minibuses run between about 7.30 am and 5.00pm. If you stay overnight in Chiang Mai you should be able to find a room in a guest house for about 500 - 600 Baht / night.Even after adding the cost of meals, taxis etc this works out cheaper than a taxi ride to Pai. You can then catch a minibus to Pai in the morning. Of course you will only get to do the morning training session if you take the taxi.
Taxi from Chiang Mai to Pai - We can certainly arrange a taxi to pick you up from Chiangmai airport if you want. Taxis cost about 4100 Baht. There are also taxis outside the airport - I would advise that you agree a price before setting off.
*From Pai Town to the Retreat:
The Retreat is about 30 minutes walk from the centre of Pai town, about 15 minutes from the outskirts. The simplest, cheapest and easiest way to get from the airport to the Retreat is by taxi. For a taxi call 0810234483. The ride should take about 5 minutes. The cost for a taxi is around 250 Baht. Motorcycle taxi is 100 Baht. Ask for 'Kung Fu' or Kun Iain / Kun Pu.
If you have any more questions, please just mail us. When you are ready to book, please let us know.
We very much look forwards to having you at our Retreat soon Didier!

Ao Nang, Thailandia
Do they teach people how to control ones own mind or like meditation etc?
Scritta in data 8 dicembre 2017
Dear Kinley,
Yes, we do teach a lot of the 'mind kung fu'. In fact this is one of the things that we specialise in. We teach both seated meditation and moving meditation. The emphasis is more on the moving meditation since we find this the most effective approach for most people.
A lot of people find that our teaching helps them very greatly to clear their minds and gain a mental reset. You might like to take a look through the reviews that people have posted.
If you choose to join us here we will be very happy to meet you Kinley,
Iain Armstrong,
Chief Instructor, Kung Fu Retreat.

Dear Naag,
Very many thanks for your mail. I am afraid that we do not train on Saturdays (or Wednesdays). You would be welcome to train with us on Sunday. If you have more questions, please message us.
Kind wishes Naag,

Dear Danny.
Very many thanks for your enquiry. You will be most welcome here at the Kung Fu Retreat. Many of the people who come here do so in order to clear their minds and strengthen their purpose. You should definitely opt for the Shaolin Warrior Program. It is the basic course which most people follow. You might also choose to do the intensive introductory course and some private tuition.
How about emailing us through our website and letting us know which dates you are interested in? You could also ask any specific questions which you might have.
I hope to get the chance to met you in the near future Danny,
Iain Armstrong,
Chief Instructor, Kung Fu Retreat.
