For soft activities do you just need the 500,000 in bank? How long must you enroll in a class for? And when renewing do you not need to be in a class?

TLDR : Answer Summary
To apply for a soft activity visa in Thailand, you typically need a bank balance of 500,000 THB. Most courses for this visa last six months or longer, with some options like a one-year yoga course available. The specific enrollment period can vary based on the embassy where you apply, but once the visa is granted, there are generally no further enrollment requirements.

Entirely depends on the Embassy you apply through. The period required for class enrollment is Embassy specific. Once the visa is granted there is no additional requirements to fulfill.

Most are 6 month courses or longer. So far only the one course required, no one knows if we will have to book more classes yet - but for now the answer is no. Muay Thai here in Pattaya, Fight EVO360 Thailand - Thepprasit Boxing Stadium talk to Sharon - she has all the answers and 6 month classes is 20k bht.
