One of the most complete Ruesi Datton training programs in Bangkok is that of Master Kraijakkri Rungrojsakulporn (aka “Master Kong”) from the Thai Yoga Massage School.
Master Kong considers Reusi Datton (which he also calls Thai Yoga) a method for treating and healing oneself and maintaining one’s physical and mental health. Apart from Ruesi Datton, his school also teaches Thai Foot Reflexology and Thai Massage (Thai Yoga Massage). His own Thai Yoga Massage style blends stretching postures from Ruesi Datton and Thai Massage together.

His focus of training is on the therapeutic aspect of Thai Yoga by teaching a range of exercises that restructure the spine, add flexibility to the diaphragm, expand the lungs, strengthen the cardiac muscles and stimulate the nervous system to promote better organ functions.
One of the key points in his Ruesi Datton trainings is the use of correct abdominal breathing and muscle power while doing the exercises, very much in contrast with, for instance, the way the Wat Pho schools teaches its Reu-Si Datton Ascetic Self-Stretching exercises.
The complete Rue-Si Datton training program at Kong’s school consists of 200 poses divided in two training levels of 100 poses. Additionally, Master Kong also offers a Ruesi Datton Teacher Training Program.
