Phuket International Academy (PIA) Blueprint for Personal Achievement

A new international sports, education and wellness centre has been established in Thailand that provides unmatched facilities and programmes.  PIA comprises three synergistic  centres: the PIA Day School, the PIA Sports, Arts and Wellness Centre and the PIA Mind Centre.  They offer students, parents and people from all over Phuket, as well as international communities, a state of the art, sustainable facility with focus on education, sports, arts and wellness.  Phuket International Academy is located in a setting of natural beauty among the foothills of a national park on the eastern part of Phuket, Thailand. PIA strives to realize the intellectual, physical, creative and spiritual potential of all students, members and participants of the three centres.

The Phuket International Academy Day School (PIADS) is working to become a three programme International Baccalaureate (IB) World School.  As a pioneering international school in Phuket, it will integrate the uniqueness of Asian culture with the best from Western educational methods, to develop inquisitive, knowledgeable, and empathetic young people who know how to conduct their lives with integrity, cultivate true happiness, and strive to create a more peaceful and sustainable planet.   The PIA Day School has high-quality facilities, teachers, trainers, staff and administration.

Phuket International Academy Sports and Leisure Club (PIASLC) is partially constructed, and will before long begin to offer a wide range of world-class sports, arts, wellness and recreational facilities and programmes for the enjoyment of the school’s pupils, their families, the local Phuket community as well as for visiting professional and amateur individual athletes and teams from around the glove.  PIASLC will establish a benchmark as a regional hub for sports, arts and wellness in Thailand and Asia, and perhaps the world.

Phuket International Academy Mind Centre (PIAMC) is nearing completion and will shortly begin to offer training in the cultivation of cognitive and emotional balance.   The PIAMC will  deliver  a combination of contemporary psychology and neuroscience alongside traditional Asian contemplative practices.  Delivered through residential retreats and weekend seminars PIAMC is open to all.  Working in close interaction with the Phuket International Academy Day School and the Phuket International Academy Sports and Leisure Club, the programmes offered through Phuket International Academy Mind Centre will contribute to everyone’s improved mental sense of balance and wellbeing.  April 10th marks the launch of the PIA Mind Centre (PIAMC) with a two-day “Genuine Happiness Retreat” led by Dr. B Alan Wallace.  The retreat focuses on two methods for cultivating meditative quiescence or shamatha.  It teaches the practice of “mindfulness of breathing”, which is a successful way for relaxing the body and calming the mind. A second method taught is both a shamatha practice and vipashyana, “insight meditation” called “settling the mind in its natural state”.

PIA  is proud of being a dependable member of the community.  It is committed to operating with integrity as an equal opportunity employer and adhering to the highest principled standards to fulfill the intellectual, physical, creative and spiritual potential of all students, members and participants of the three centres.
