Get here folks because today is the day!! We’re here and ready to flow with you! Rain is clearing up beautifully and our vendor market is pumping! Yoga starts at 10! Here are some welcome words from Mama D herself:

Ten years ago I was in the Rice Eccles stands with some friends, and we were joking about how cool it would be to get a bunch of yogis on that field and call it NAMASTADIUM. In 2023 that dream came to fruition. I am so excited that Yoga Forward and 1000 yogis (we’re hoping) are taking over the field for a fourth year in a row. Let’s do this UTAH! Join us for a morning of community, connection, and helping a little but mighty non-profit continue taking yoga where it isn’t! by @yoga.forward
