2021 COURSE CALENDAR
Live-In Students are charged Bt 2200 per day -- this includes a room of your own with 3 meals a day, 1 hour of Thai yoga plus 6 hrs of teaching, herbal steam baths after class, one of our four Training Notebooks, bicycles, internet, airport pickups and transportation into town when you need it. Surcharges & Discounts. If you are willing to share our dorm (2 to 5 persons), the charge is a little less: Bt 2100 per day. If you prefer a private room with a shower and toilet of your own the charge will be a little more: Bt 2300 per day. We have only 4 rooms with private bathrooms so do tell us ahead of time if you are interested in this option -- the final decision will be made according to need. If you are lucky and we just put you in one of those rooms there is no extra charge. The Live-in Student Rate is a special, all-inclusive charge, and there is no refund for meals missed on Study Days for Students or for their partners. This not only helps us to keep our student fees as low as we possibly can but to maintain our level of concentration. The ordinary live-in charge for Days-off & Extra Days is Bt 1100 for a private room with a shared bathroom. If you have opted for our dorm, the extra-day charge is only Bt 1000; if you have a private room with a private bathroom the charge is Bt 1200. For Live-in Students and their partners, the perks continue on Days-off, including free steam baths, and many students decide just to stay home to practice and relax. If you decide to go off and do something adventurous on a Day-off there can be a refund for missed meals, but you must tell us by 9am for lunch (Bt 100) and 1pm for dinner (Bt 150). There will be No Non-live-in Students during the Covid 19 recovery period for obvious reasons. (We take our students safety very seriously!)
FAQs About Course Registration DEPOSITS. Our classes are closed at 12 and often fully booked. For this reason we must ask for a 25% Deposit to reserve a place, insuring that nobody is turned away when there is still space remaining. We refund deposits but only if a cancelled place can be filled again before the beginning of the class. Indeed, we keep a Waiting List just for this purpose. On the other hand, cancellations happen rarely. and refunds can take some time as the enrollment sorts itself out. You should click on the PayPal Button in the right hand column above to pay the deposit -- (the Logo is in Thai but the instructions are in English). The Deposit includes a +/- 4% fee to cover the PayPal Transfer and Currency Conversion charges. To pay with your credit card you must first click on the PayPal Button and then click on Pay with my credit or debit card at the bottom of the PayPal pop-up window. Otherwise you must have a PayPal account of your own. SETTING UP A PAYPAL ACCOUNT OF YOUR OWN. If you have a PayPal account of your own you can make the payment without using the Button -- ask us for instructions before you choose this option. We credit students for whatever sum arrives in our account, so nothing is ever lost, for you or for us. Indeed, more and more students are using this option to pay their final bill as well. FULL PAYMENT The rest of your student fees should be paid by the end of the first week of the course. If you are paying by PayPal you must have opened an account of your own before you come to Thailand, otherwise you may find you are unable to use PayPal. As an alternative we would suggest you arrange with your home bank to use your ordinary ATM card while you are here, which is quick, safe, and probably the cheapest way to obtain cash in Thailand. But you must inform your bank beforehand or they will assume your card has been stolen. LIVE-IN STUDENTS. Most of our students live here with us -- the place is beautiful. the food delicious, the company good, and above all the students get to spend a whole lot more time with Homprang and her family. Traditional medicine differs widely from region to region all over the world, and those differences have arisen not out of ignorance but out of the enormous variety in the cultural patterns, religious beliefs, family structures, diets, and climates of each region. We strongly recommend you immerse yourself in this training as deeply as you can by living here with us, and in the end we're cheaper than living in a guesthouse in town anyway. REFUNDS FOR MISSED MEALS. A refund for a missed lunch or dinner can be claimed by those who are here as Room & Board Guests and by Students on their Days-off, but you must tell us by 9.00am for a lunch (100 baht) and 1.00pm for a dinner (150 baht). There is no refund for students on Study-Days as the Live-in Student rate is already a reduced fee. NON-LIVE-IN STUDENTS Of course we understand that some students already have a place of their own in Chiang Mai and/or a significant-other who works in town, or whatever. And we'll look after you well anyway, don't worry. (Non-live-in students must pay the same deposit as live-in students, but, everybody is credited for the whole sum that we receive on their final bill, so nothing is wasted or lost.) WHEN TO ARRIVE & DEPART. Most live-in students arrive the day before the class begins because the Rasidaton (Thai Yoga) is at 7am on the first morning. If you arrive the day before the class begins, your dinner and bed for that night will be considered as part of your first day of class, which means your course fee covers you through to the end of the last day of class (plus one final steam bath if you wish). You are welcome to arrive even earlier than the day before and can also stay on after the class finishes. Needless to say there is a charge for extra nights and meals.
