Be prepared for an emotional free-for-all
This isn’t just a festival about holistic health and acro-yoga, it’s a festival full of authenticity, intimacy, and a “we’re in this together” vibe. This could be partly due to the large female-to-male ratio and the fact that many women friends come to Wanderlust together. It’s a welcome respite from the masculine mosh pit atmosphere at many music festivals. As Joah Spearman put it on Huffington Post, “Wanderlust is light on laser shows and heavy on hula hoops.”
You don’t have to be an expert yogini
Don’t worry, this isn’t a competitive festival. You can choose to do as much or as little yoga as you like. But, we would recommend that you spend the two weeks prior to going limbering up in some yoga classes so that you’re not too sore after one day at Wanderlust.
Experience Yoga In The City
Some folks can’t make the time for a three- or four-day workshop, so Wanderlust has brought a little taste of their epic adventure to the following cities for one day immersions: San Francisco, Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles.
Bring the kids
There are all kinds of kids programs available, and what a wonderful way for your children to learn about health, wellness, and downward dog.
Getting There
We recommend just navigating the Wanderlust website to determine the best means of getting to the site you’re going to.
Where To Stay
Typically, there is both camping and indoor lodging options, ranging from affordable to deluxe.
Packing Tips
Pack lightly, bring your yoga mat, some sunscreen (especially due to the altitude in some locations), and definitely bring some athletic shoes as the locations lend themselves to other adventurous, athletic endeavors.
