Who we are
Pyramid Yoga is a beautiful retreat centre located in a tropical forest on Thai Island Koh Phangan. It is our mission to offer people a space to connect, to grow spiritually and have fun. The trees of the forest reach high to the sky and our yoga Shala’s have a pyramid shaped roof. The energy moves upward. We offer in-depth transformational programs and residencies to ensure a full and deep transformation for the ones that are called to work with us. Our founding father David Goulet, who has been on the yogic path for more than 50 years, developed his own style of yoga. Chakra yoga, that is mainly focused on the breath. Or you just come for a day, drop into one of our yoga classes, follow a workshop or dance your socks off at our ecstatic dance.
WHY are we running manafest?
Why are we hosting a lifestyle festival in an established yoga school, you may ask?
Indeed a very powerful question, in which we would love to use this occasion to share our vision with you.
Just as our beloved Planet is a truly diverse place of countless cultures, traditions, beliefs and practices, so is our beloved Island which some of us are lucky enough to call Home. Blessed with plenty of good souls attracted by this magical place to make it theirs too, for a season or even a whole lifetime.
A beautiful blend of very talented people which if asked, they would probably all love to make a difference here. Giving back and helping to make the world a better place.
It appears that the time is now to create a mutual vision, one which is not only worth creating but grows organically by its impact, message, and visibility.
As home is where the heart is, we want to create and movement from that place.
From a place of love, support and inclusion. Creating a lively soil to grow that powerful vision of the Future. For the land as well as our personal lives and especially the vision we strive to grow and root our community in, here in this wonderful place.
A community that is truly bonded, a community that is active, truly connected and charitable. Working together to be in service to the land, it’s environmental future, as well as our community members wellbeing who might fallen in emergency.
Bridging and knitting the western and the local Thai community across our charming, insignificant differences in a dynamic movement that pursues the same goals for the betterment of the future.
A more sustainable and ecological future!
Defined by inclusive systems that create a positive feedback loop. May it be in tourism, leisure, organic farming or just our daily life.
In an effort of transforming our precious lands not just in a modern yoga studio but a holistic eco-village where the in- and output are matching it’s balance we strive to grow and inspire a big community of likeminded people. Spreading the spirit of protecting the lands and its ecosystems in a way that serves both the business community, and the land. Supporting each other in the process of realization by open source sharing of Know How and network, helping to preserve this beautiful Island for the future.
This is why we created Manafest!
What is the vision of manafest?
A playground for the new earth, a melting pot of creative minds and free spirits.
Pursuing a common mission of transforming our way of living and relating for the better and create a true bond amongst the community. Creating our mutual future from a place of heart and understanding for each other.
At Manafest we strive to bring everybody together, providing a space to ignite that mutual vision, giving a voice to those who want to inspire or raise awareness. Creating a space where the Island’s most talented teachers and practitioners can showcase their profession and where local sustainable businesses can network, show off their great work, find supporters, donors and close powerful collaborations.
No one is left behind, no one is excluded WE ALL ARE ONE ..of the very same kind.
From here we would love to move forward.
Making the first steps on building our common future together.
How could this not be the coolest thing to come together for?
Come and join us, to help create this beautiful future together…
…and be Human.
Let’s be Human together
