FORMA is built around six longevity pillars, tested and coached by people who live this daily.
One week is the beginning, not the whole journey. FORMA is a community, not a calendar event. The people you train with in Koh Phangan are the same people you'll see again. FORMA is built for people who move regularly, not for competitive athletes. If you train two or three times a week, you're ready.
Throughout the year, we bring the community back together in Switzerland with smaller gatherings, so the habits built on the island don't stay on the island.
And everything is measured. Every guest completes a check up at the beginning, another at the end, and follow ups in the future, helping us build a clearer picture of what truly moves the needle on longevity.
FORMA isn't just a week away. It's a longitudinal, data driven approach to living longer, built with the people doing it alongside you.
Koh Phangan is a place to slow down, reset, and reconnect with how you want to live. It's less about the island itself and more about what happens when a group commits to the same days, side by side. Arcana Wellness Village sits inland, away from the noise.
The property is built for exactly this kind of week, with a spa, ice bath, pool, gym, sauna, restaurant, and daily in hotel activities, all a short walk from your room.
And the week connects to a check-up 90 days later.
Arrivals and check in. In the evening, welcome dinner and opening circle.
HIIT (intense), sauna, and cold plunge, followed by a longevity breakfast. Free afternoon. In the evening, a longevity session and reflection.
Strength workout and breathwork, followed by a longevity breakfast. Free afternoon. In the evening, yin yoga, sauna, and cold plunge.
A recovery run on the beach and a breathwork journey, followed by a longevity breakfast. Free afternoon. In the evening, a sunset walk on the beach and a Muay Thai night fight show.
Longevity breakfast, then a Muay Thai session with a local trainer. Free afternoon. In the evening, a stretch session and night sauna recovery.
Sunrise meditation on the beach, mobility, sauna, and cold plunge, followed by a longevity breakfast. Free afternoon. In the evening, ecstatic dance.
Closing ceremony and the plan for the next 90 days. Checkout and departures.
Mornings and evenings structured around the six pillars above. Afternoons completely yours. Light longevity snacks between sessions, and access to sauna, cold plunge, and the gym, are always included.
Every room includes a longevity breakfast.
Every guest is tested at the start of the week, tested again before leaving, and checked in with 90 days later. A real before and after, not just a feeling.
Heart rate variability, a core marker of recovery and nervous system balance.
Resting and active heart rate, tracked across the week.
A simple, proven measure of overall strength and longevity.
Muscle and fat distribution, measured, not guessed.
Functional range of motion and stability testing.
Cardiovascular baseline, checked at intake and exit.
Oura, Whoop, Garmin, Apple Watch, or similar. If you wear one, bring it, and we'll fold your data into the picture.
Everything above is rechecked before you leave, and again 90 days later.
Once your deposit is confirmed, we'll send you a short form with a few questions, including any health considerations we should know about.
Fly from Zürich to Koh Samui, typically with one or two connections. Not included in your FORMA price, booked and paid for by each guest.
A short ferry crossing connects Koh Samui to Koh Phangan. Also not included. Details and timing shared closer to departure.
A one day check-up together in Switzerland, 90 days after the week ends. Mandatory, and included in your program price. Exact date confirmed once Edition 01 is underway.

André moves fluidly between two worlds: the structured, evidence driven side of pharma and digital health, and the raw, physical world of sport. As a Senior Service Designer, he brings a human centered lens to health systems, and as a former professional football player and coach, he knows firsthand what it takes to push a body and a team to perform.
Today that duality shows up in how he coaches: leading outdoor HIIT classes in Zürich, staying sharp across tennis, mountain biking, skiing, ski touring, and diving, and bringing the same discipline that built his career into every session he runs.
Rita's approach to longevity is shaped by professional experience, personal experimentation, and a deep curiosity about what actually helps us live and feel better for longer. With a background in business, nutrition and nutrition coaching, and experience working in the longevity industry, she explores health testing, wearables, recovery methods, and evidence based practices.
Her focus is on bridging the gap between longevity science and real life, making complex health concepts practical, approachable, and easier to integrate into everyday life.
As both an entrepreneur and a nervous system expert, Tatjana's approach is shaped by two rhythms she navigates daily: the fast, high stakes pace of corporate and startup life, and the slower, embodied practices of breathwork and regulation. She doesn't leave one world for the other, she's learned to stay in both without burning out, by listening to her body and using the right tools. That lived balance is what allows her to build a practice that truly meets people where they are.
