Outdoor Experiences

Practice in the presence of nature

The Berkshires aren't simply a backdrop for the festival. They become part of the experience. Throughout the weekend, outdoor classes, guided hikes, walking meditations, mountaintop gatherings, and other nature-based offerings invite participants to connect more deeply with the landscape and with one another.

Studio Partners

Where Communities Come Together

The Berkshire Yoga Festival brings together yoga studios from across the Northeast, creating a gathering that feels both expansive and deeply personal. Students practice alongside their teachers, studios connect with one another, and new relationships form throughout the weekend. The result is a community that extends well beyond any single studio's walls.
