Thai Yoga Strength Thai Yoga Strength (formerly Nashville Thai Massage) is a one stop holistic shop for Thai Bodywork, Y It is moldable to whatever your needs may be.

Thai Yoga Strength seeks to bring the ancient healing art of Thai bodywork to Nashville's busy citizens. It is a system of "medicine" and healing dating back to almost the buddha! Performed on a mat on the floor, Thai bodywork uses a system of rythmic compression, acupressure, and yoga type stretching to open the body and release tension and energy blocks. Because of the nature of the work, it is suitable for all people.

I had the pleasure of starting this week by teaching advanced stretches to a wonderful group of practitioners. They are going to go and spread this work amongst their communities in wonderful ways, of that I'm sure. If you're in the Springfield area, checkout Crystal Arellano . They're creating an epicenter of traditional Thai work in Robertson County. Here in Nashville, Cory is blending his knowledge of yoga and now Thai bodywork at Seagrass Stillness & Yoga.

It's been an honor and a privilege to guide them down the initial steps of this path. Each person has put an incredible amount of time and effort into this work simply because they believe in it and respect it. I'm proud to have them represent our lineage of the work; to be the living representation of the knowledge that was shared to me by my teachers and their teachers before them. - Jacob

In this week's Office Tour we talk about Kruba Srivichai (you will see many different spellings). As with many of the relics that we have, they were passed down from our first teacher. This one was a gift he received in Chiang Mai and now resides in a place of honor in our space. Certificate, headache!

OFFICE TOUR! Well, not really, but I figured it might be nice to share some of the stories behind the items in the office. While they might seem merely for decoration, most of the things you see when you come in have a story and deep personal connection. Our altar stands as a center piece of the space and is home to items of deep respect and importance. It stands as a symbol of gratitude for this work that we are lucky to share with you all. - Jacob

Some of the best moments of a class are when the "wheels fall off" and everyone is simply exploring the work. Nothing beats the experience of receiving and providing this work in a group setting.

Scenes from day one of our Level 2 Practitioner Program. It's always a privilege to share knowledge with open and eager students. Each person brings a unique set of experiences, skills, and a determination to put in the necessary time. Not a single person here is looking for the fast track or short cut. There's no better way to honor our teachers than by sharing this work with these students. Be on the lookout for more amazing Thai bodywork therapists in the near future!

Everyone loves a flashy move, and they do serve a purpose, but the magic of a session comes from the basics. The most successful sessions are usually the most boring to watch. If you've been avoiding Thai bodywork because you're worried about your flexibility, do not worry. We save the flashy for when it's absolutely necessary.

Messing around during a break on Day 1 of the Practitioner Program. Obviously not what we're learning, but class should always be fun.

What sets our Practitioner Program apart from others? We aren't out to give you a paint-by-numbers sequence. Our program will take you beyond rote technique training. You will learn to use the tools that allow you to foster your unique style.

Unlike bigger programs, we intentionally keep class sizes very small. Teachers have spent years honing their skills in real world scenarios. Working with corners is still our main practice. You won't find anyone on the TYS team who spent a week in Thailand and came back to immediately start teaching.

The TYS Practitioner Program will take you from beginner to professional level therapist. Though much has been modernized for a contemporary wellness setting, we still emphasize the historical and cultural context of the work. Even though the learning never ends, you will leave this program with a mastery of technique as well as your own individual approach.

Class sizes are limited, so grab your spot early. Click on booking and hit the classes tab. Level 1 begins in March.

Last night I watched The Stone on Netflix. A good movie out of Thailand that revolves around the chaos of a young man discovering his father owned a super rare Thai amulet. Chaos ensues.

This got me thinking about the story behind my Thai amulet. I purchased it outside of Wat Si Koet in Chiang Mai. There were many sellers throughout Chiang Mai, but this individual called to me. As did this amulet (I had no desire to purchase one prior to seeing the one I ended up buying).

After a bit of sleuthing online, I was able to verify the information giving to me by the seller. I also discovered that it has its own fun backstory, the full extent of which I will never know. It's uncommon, possibly even rare, and almost worthless when it comes to monetary value. I find that combination oddly beautiful.

Going back down this rabbit hole of discovery reminded me of the need to be more mindful during my practice and in daily life. What fills your bowl depends on your actions. That true loving-kindness isn't reserved for the ones who are the easiest to give it to. There is magic in these amulets, even if it's only to remind us of the values we wish to keep. - Jacob
