The festival is designed to bring together yoga and meditation practitioners, aspirants and the general public to enjoy soulful moments of wellness, healing, relaxation and reflection in order to promote more positive interactions that are vitally important for the well-being of our communities and country.
This all day event will include adult and children yoga classes, therapies, wellness information, food and drink. The signature event will be a yoga workshop and a night concert by internationally renowned musical star, MC YOGI whose Hip-hop music not only introduces yoga to mainstream audiences, but also promotes peace, love and harmonious relationships.
