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!

About: 90 minute Original Hot Yoga (formally known as Bikram) or Hot 26 as it’s sometimes referred to, is a type of hot yoga in which practitioners perform 26 asanas (poses) and two Pranayama breathing exercises, typically done in a room heated to at least 102 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit with 40% humidity. The Bikram method is considered the original hot yoga practice, invented in the 1970s by yoga teacher Bikram Choudhury. In this class, we’ll move through the poses and breathing while strengthening our ability to regulate our nervous systems in a challenging heated environment. This class is designed for beginners and can accommodate and challenge all levels.
