After a challenging year for our minds and bodies, the Bass Coast Yoga Festival is delighted to announce its return to Inverloch for 2022. We invite everyone to join us for this chance to reconnect, heal and share the joy of Yoga together. The festival caters for both absolute beginners and seasoned yogis with over thirty different classes, from challenging Yoga flows to blissful, relaxing Yin Yoga.

Roll out your mat or towel, relax your breath and enjoy the mindful practice of yoga, you can simply do you own thing, or try one of the many online guided practices available

Perfect yoga holiday

Participants can build their festival itinerary and sample different styles of Yoga throughout the day, all presented by experienced local and interstate instructors. The festival is the perfect yoga holiday we all deserve, offering participants a space to de-stress and reconnect mind, body & soul. Festival organiser Roise Richards says, "What sets the festival apart is the diversity of wellness offerings and the experienced yoga and meditation teachers all together in one place."

It's a festival that gives people a chance to nourish themselves and care for their body, mind and spirit. The festival also enables local yoga instructors & businesses to connect with visitors and the wider yogic community.

Renee Italia (Inverloch)

It was this magical feeling that landed Renee on a quest to India where she completed her first yoga teacher training. While she never intended to teach yoga, she found herself leading friends, through practices in her lounge room.

Renee went on to deepen her studies in yoga along with Reiki, Thai Yoga Massage and as an Integrative Health Practitioner. In 2018, Renee opened her intimate home studio in Melbourne. More recently, her internal GPS has called her closer to nature, where she now lives on the Bass Coast with her husband in Inverloch.

Renee Italia was drawn to the yoga mat 10 years ago when living a high paced lifestyle, in Singapore, she gives yoga credit for bringing her back to her childlike intuitive wisdom
