Marga Yoga YTT200 Loved this - highly recommended.
I found the YTT200 to be an intense course - both mentally and physically but ultimately enormously rewarding. I am glad I did it - it was a tremendous experience - and I am VERY glad I did it with Simona at Marga Yoga.
Simona is an experienced teacher. She is calm, professional and dedicated, with a quite incredible depth of knowledge of yoga. From discussions on the finer points of yoga philosophy to correcting fine detail in an asana - Simona's got you covered.
She is also approachable and friendly with a good sense of fun. The small class sizes at Marga (I think the maximum is 8) mean students always have plenty of contact time with Simona.
The meals and refreshments offered on the course were nutritious, delicious and plentiful - and much of it comes from the MY Vegan Cafe...

Read moreA hidden gem on the peaceful west side of Koh Samui, My Vegan Food Shop & Café is run solo by the wonderful Simona — an Italian chef, yoga teacher, and truly inspiring human. She makes everything herself: house-made vegan cheeses, faux meats, and wholesome dishes prepared with love and care.
When I visited, I tried her melty vegan mozzarella — creamy, stretchy, and absolutely delicious. Her food isn’t just nourishing; it carries a peaceful, grounding energy that reflects who she is. You can feel the intention in every bite.
This serene little space is more than a café — it’s a place to slow down, reconnect, and feel truly nourished. Please support her if you’re on the island. Simona’s work is a...
