Luna Alignment Yoga

About

Luna Alignment Yoga is a professional yoga education and practice space situated on the island of Koh Phangan in Chang Wat Surat Thani, Thailand. Founded in 2015 by Tal Swissa, the studio was established with a clear and focused purpose: to create a dedicated space for alignment-based practice, therapeutic understanding, and serious yoga education. Tal has been teaching yoga internationally since 2006 and has been a consistent presence on Koh Phangan since 2010, bringing both global perspective and deep local roots to her teaching.

The studio's approach centres on guiding students through a process of realigning body, mind, and emotions with clarity, precision, and respect for how the human system naturally functions. This is not a generalist studio offering something for everyone — it is a space built around anatomical understanding, functional strength, and nervous system awareness, underpinned by a refined and thoughtful teaching methodology. That focus gives the studio a distinctive character: purposeful, grounded, and intellectually rigorous without being inaccessible.

Luna Alignment Yoga currently offers alignment-based drop-in classes suitable for dedicated practitioners, private yoga therapy sessions for those seeking individualised support, and 50-hour advanced teacher training programs for yoga professionals looking to deepen their practice and refine their skills. Since launching her teacher training programs, Tal and her team of expert teachers have graduated over 300 teachers across 19 professional trainings — a testament to the studio's reputation within the broader yoga education community. All classes, private sessions, and trainings are personally taught and guided by Tal, ensuring a consistent standard of depth and direct mentorship throughout.

Trainings are deliberately kept small to maintain an intimate, focused learning environment where each participant receives individualised guidance and comprehensive support. This commitment to quality over scale reflects the ethos that runs through everything at Luna Alignment Yoga. Set against the backdrop of one of Thailand's most beloved islands, the studio attracts dedicated students and yoga teachers from around the world who are looking for something more considered — a place where the practice is taken seriously and the teaching is both precise and personal.

On an island offering so much yoga, Tal really delivers classes that stand out from the rest & I’m so glad to have found her! She’s my ‘go to’ for 3 classes a week! Would recommend her to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of the way their own body & nervous system works. She has a unique approach to teaching alignment, mobility, core & nervous system regulation and her classes are accessible to everyone. There are moments of calm & reflection as well as power & strength in every class and I noticed improvements in my practice immediately. Her classes are held in a beautiful, newly renovated studio with great facilities and props. See you there!

Tal is a super experienced teacher and has deep understanding of the physical and mental connections in the body , and you can really tell by the way she teaches—clear, professional, and spot-on. Her classes are well thought out and u feel so good after class. The studio feels cozy and welcoming, and Tal is warm, attentive, and gives personal guidance when needed. Highly recommend trying a class with Tal.

Tal has been such an important part of my yoga journey. She didn’t just teach me the practice—she helped me truly connect with my body, become aware of my posture, and understand proper alignment in a way I never had before. In a place like Koh Phangan, where there are so many yoga studios, Tal really shines. She brings a grounded, thoughtful energy to every class and creates a space that feels both welcoming and deep. If you’re looking for a teacher who truly cares and knows her stuff, I can’t recommend her enough.

Luna Alignment Yoga is by far the best yoga studio in Koh Phangan! The studio is spacious, clean, and modern. But the best part is the teacher. Tal is the most talented yoga teacher. She has developed a very practical and precise style of yoga, which she teaches with so much grace. While here on the island, I surely take every single class she offers.

Highly recommended. I just love Tal’s classes. The way they are so well built up to the main asana of the day, the way she is super accurate in her instructions and I also just love her energy as a person. The new studio is superclean and with high quality materials. There’s a group of people that comes regularly, which also feels nice, the classes have become part of my weekly routine. Thank you Tal & Guy for creating & offering this on the island! 🙏🏾💚
