TLDR : Answer Summary
You can typically enter Thailand for 60 days using a tourist visa or visa exemption. A single entry tourist visa allows you to enter 2-3 times a year, while a multi-entry tourist visa permits unlimited entries during its 6-month validity. Additionally, visa-exempt entries generally allow for 2 times per calendar year, assuming each stay does not exceed 60 days in total. To legally conduct personal training in Thailand, it is generally advisable to operate online while visiting, as hands-on coaching may conflict with visa rules.
until immigration stop you..... 1st time 30 day extension. 2nd time 7 days. Time to get a visa

Visa-exempt - - -that is, if you extend each stay for the full length of a 60-days stay . . .
what I am trying to say is, if you don't maximize each stay, your chances of being allowed more than 2 times are bigger. You actually could enter visa-exempt 4 or 5 times during one calendar year if the total amount of stays is under 157 days (some will say under 180 days) and you can show proof of an onward ticket that you will leave Thailand before the full extent of 60 days is spent, on every entry point . . . .
However I must warn you that this is totally up to the sole discretion of the Immigration officer at the entry point
i see sounds like a situation that can be settled with a small fine ;) im joking of course good info here thank you alot your quite knowledgeable

*** on a single entry tourist visa you can enter 2-3 times, until the point when they pull you aside and start questioning you if you work in Thailand illegally
*** on visa-exempt entries two times per calendar year . . . . a third attempt to enter will probably raise a few brows and can be denied (nobody can foresee the reaction of the officer at the entry point)
*** on a multi entry tourist visa as many times as you want during the 6-month visa validity
*** on a 5-year ELITE privilege visa as many times as you want during the 5 year validity of the visa
Immigration officers now have explicit authority to deny entry if you have more than 2 visa-exempt entries (or “visa runs”) in a short period without a justifiable reason (e.g., genuine tourism with time spent outside Thailand). Some travelers with repeated entries are already receiving only 30-day stamps or being turned away.
