Wanderlust California is right around the corner – and we couldn’t be more excited!
Get ready for the yoga and music event of the year, Wanderlust CA is going down July 28th – 31st in beautiful Squaw Valley, CA! More information from the event website:
Yoga. Music. Nature.
Wanderlust is a one-of-a-kind festival bringing together the world’s best yoga and wellness teachers and top musical acts and DJs, all in a setting of breathtaking natural beauty.
We’re talking about fun in the sun and dancing under the stars. Getting’ your down dog on at the top of the mountain and sipping poolside cocktails with your crew. Early morning meditations and all-night chakra spinning musical performances. The epic Lake Tahoe Valley in all of its picturesque glory. A place to root down and rise up, to get centered on your yoga mat and get funky on the dancefloor – lux rooms, fresh healthy food, and good people. Yoga, music, nature, and a whole lot more. This is Wanderlust California.
Yoga Classes
We’re so excited to join some of the nation’s top yoga teachers and experts for a full schedule of exciting classes and creative workshops around the clock at a choice selection of beautiful on-site venues.
