The first Tadasana Festival of Yoga & Music was held over Earth Day Weekend, April 20-22, 2012, on the beach in Santa Monica, CA. Over 3,000 attendees chose from over 75 master classes and workshops with live, in-class musical performances by artists from around the world, as well as dozens of lectures and an eco-conscious shopping market in an outstanding location, a mere five-minute walk from the famed Santa Monica Pier. Produced by Fabian Alsultany and Tommy Rosen, the event was an overwhelming success, and the organization is now in talks about the next festival.
Inspire is the media arm of Tadasana Festival, featuring regularly updated content, including articles, videos, podcasts, interviews and essays by the extended community of yoga teachers, musicians, artists and friends of Tadasana. We will feature the many valuable facets and assets of the growing yoga tribe around the world, with insightful, thought-provoking works and beautiful photography and videography, and all aimed at helping inspire you in your yoga practice and life.
