A WEEK OF TRAINING AND TROPICAL LIFESTYLE

PHUKET, THAILAND

Seven days in Phuket designed around world-class grappling, recovery, connection and the freedom to enjoy one of Thailand’s most iconic destinations.

Train in a focused camp environment with Owen Livesey across two leading martial arts facilities, with sessions built to help you learn, improve and get more from your time on the mats.

Between sessions, slow things down. Stay by the beach, enjoy the resort, explore Phuket, share meals, recover and experience the island with a community of like-minded martial artists.

It’s more than a training camp.

It’s a week built around quality training, meaningful experiences and the kind of lifestyle you’ll remember long after the retreat ends.

WHAT OUR PEOPLE SAY

FAQS

What experience level do I need to join?

You should have at least basic grappling experience (BJJ, wrestling, or similar), with a few months of consistent training.
This retreat is not suitable for complete beginners, but you don’t need to be a competitor, just someone actively training and ready to improve.

What training gear should I bring?

Bring your no-gi grappling gear (rashguards, grappling shorts), mouthguard, and anything you usually train with.
If you also practice other martial arts, you’ll have the opportunity to access classes at Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA, so you can optionally bring additional gear.
Most equipment can also be purchased locally at the gym if needed.

What does the training schedule look like?

There will be two main LVDI training sessions on most days, with additional opportunities to train at both Carlson Gracie Thalang Phuket and Bangtao Muay Thai & MMA.

The schedule is designed to give you plenty of quality mat time while still leaving space to recover, enjoy Phuket and take part in the retreat activities.

A detailed daily timetable will be shared with participants closer to the retreat.

When should I arrive?

Arrival day is Sunday, 29 November 2026.

For guests staying at Arinara Beach Resort, check-in is available from around 2:00 PM. If you arrive earlier, the resort can store your luggage, and you’ll still be able to use the facilities, get changed, relax by the pool or head to the beach while you wait for your room.

We recommend arriving during the afternoon so you have time to settle in before the retreat begins.

We’ll also have a relaxed group meet-up that evening to welcome everyone and go through the week ahead. Full timing and meeting details will be shared closer to the retreat.

What are the accommodation options?

We offer two accommodation options at Arinara Beach Resort: a Shared Room Package and a Private Room Package.

The Shared Room Package includes a twin room shared with another retreat participant of the same gender, while the Private Room Package gives you your own room for the duration of the retreat.

Both options include daily buffet breakfast, access to the resort facilities and the full retreat experience.

Can I join the retreat on my own?

Absolutely.
Many participants join solo — the retreat is designed to build connection naturally through training, shared experiences, and group activities.

Are flights or airport transfers included?

Flights and airport transfers are not included.
We’re happy to assist and guide you with transport options if needed.

How does booking and payment work?

You can book your retreat directly through our website by choosing your preferred package and proceeding to checkout.

You can either pay in full or secure your place with a deposit.

 

If you choose the deposit option, we’ll contact you personally to organise a customised payment plan for the remaining balance.

What's your cancellation policy?

Deposits are non-refundable.

If you need to cancel your booking, please contact us as soon as possible. Depending on the timing and circumstances, we’ll always do our best to work with you and find the most suitable solution.

Any refunds, transfers or credits beyond the deposit will be handled in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.

What is the minimum age to attend?

You must be 14 years or older.
Guests under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
