Join hundreds of yogis + a dozen of renowned teachers to share in thousands of years of lineages coming together in one valley. Let’s practice and play as we gather to support one another along the way!

Podcasts, books, yoga classes, and workshops are phenomenal ways to learn and grow, and become better versions of ourselves.
Kula Yoga Fest was created to amplify those experiences in real life, together in person over the course of a long weekend surrounded by the beauty of the Mount Washington Valley.
It’s meeting teachers you may not have otherwise been introduced to who just might be your next mentor. It’s sharing in song and dance, yoga, and nature trails with old friends and making new ones. At Kula Yoga Fest, you'll meet individuals who will leave an incredible mark on your heart and soul—it's an experience that transcends words.
Whether you leave with your mind and heart expanded or with the seeds of new beginnings planted within you, one thing is certain: you will grow. And as we grow individually, we also grow together—as a community, a society, and a world.”
