Yoga Festivals

One of the most spiritual countries in the world, India is known for celebrating plenty of religious and cultural festivals. So, if you are looking forward to visiting a place which can exhibit the coexistence of people belonging to different religions, caste, and culture, India should be on top of your list.

Everyday, millions of people from all over the world get on a yoga mat to experience the union of the body, mind and soul that the asana practice provides. Can you imagine this feeling being multiplied in company of hundreds of other yogis practicing in the same place as you? Just imagine, breathing in synchrony with them, listening to the same sounds as you, doing the same poses… talk about sense of unity!

Saturday, 6:00 am. My alarm rings and I open my eyes wondering why am I waking up so early to start my precious weekend. I prepare to go back to bed when I suddenly remember that I had stupidly bought tickets for Wanderlust 108 in Guadalajara, Mexico. Turns out I’m even running late, registration is at 6:30 and I’m still wearing my pajamas!

Amanda Fletcher is a yoga teacher who has always wanted to help people become better versions of themselves and embrace life as it is. She has been organizing yoga retreats for 11 years, and that’s how she realized that beyond touristic activities, a lot of people were looking to spend their vacations having a great relaxing time time with friends, wine and music. So, after hearing the advice of many of her retreat guests, she came up with a fantastic idea: a yoga festival!
