why we yoga
Yoga is meant for ALL bodies, shapes, sizes and skills. Yoga is a connection to both breath and body. Alaska Yoga Festival was founded in 2018 to connect Students with Local Educators - to create an event where everybody can unite and celebrate practice. In 2022 we joined forces with a local non-profit to spotlight at the festival. We aim to connect Alaskans with Alaskans. Join us in this community centered All Day, All You Can Yoga event!
