Oregon Coast Yoga Festival
March 1-3, 2013


Full Festival Pass Early Bird
Special:  $295 until 1/1/13 

Happy, Happy Holidays to you!  Wishing you a Joyous Holiday with your family and friends.  Family, friends, and community are the most of precious gifts.  I hope you revel in the good fortune to have each other.  I know that I will, as I pack for travel to see my daughter and sisters for Christmas.

And speaking of community, I am thrilled that we will come together for the Third Cannon Beach Yoga Festival.  We have continued to build a small and dedicated group of yoga teachers and practitioners, artists and musicians, city officials and business owners who are committed to excellence and hospitality.

We have a fantastic faculty of Master Teachers offering a variety of workshops and lectures in yoga, meditation, Ayurveda, drawing, and music.

Special Promotion for Yoga Teachers!

Tell Your Students & Take some Credit!

Yoga teachers and studio owners who are registered for the Full Festival Pass are eligible for a $20 rebate for every attendee who, when registering for a Full Festival Pass, identifies that teacher as the way they heard about the festival.

It's easy to do!  At the time of registration, a yoga teacher must identify themselves as a teacher or studio owner (there's a question on the form).  And when students register for a Full Festival Pass, they identify the teacher as the source for how they heard about the festival (there's a question and a name field for that on the form, too).

Rebates will be tallied and distributed at the festival.
