SPARTA ACADEMY JIU JITSU & YOGA RETREAT
PHUKET, THAILAND | AUGUST 14 - 21, 2026 | 8 DAYS, 7 NIGHTS
Sparta Academy Jiu Jitsu & Yoga Retreat
Each sunrise brings a fresh tempo — slow, steady, invigorating — moving from energizing yoga sessions beside like-minded explorers to playful sparring on the jiu jitsu mat as laughter bounces off bamboo walls. Lunches burst with local flavor, shared stories, and a post-card view, while afternoons might sweep you deep into temple calm or humming old town streets. Elephants saunter by at the sanctuary, saltwater clings after island swims, and the day's energy winds down with the crackle of Muay Thai or the warmth of communal tables lit by Phuket’s golden dusk. Every experience sparks a sense of adventure without leaving behind the calm, It’s a week for those craving both movement and meaning, side-by-side with new friends and the vibrant pulse of island life.
