The Texas Yoga Conference was founded by local yogis with a passion to inspire the general public to learn more about yoga and its benefits. The conference aspires to become a regional and national showcase for an array of talented yoga teachers in Texas. Yoga is an art for the body, mind and spirit to express living fully in the present moment with peace and wellness. We advocate for yoga as a way of life to bring health to the forefront of families.

The objective of the Texas Yoga Conference is to educate others about the many benefits of yoga through over 70 classes, lectures and presentations designed to allow all levels of student to more deeply explore the many facets of the practice. We will have three 30 minutebreaks in-between most classes so that the participants can explore our vendor and sponsor areas, shop, rest a while or get a snack at the concession stand on the UST campus.

Texas loves yoga! Texas is a big state among the ever growing number of people practicing yoga in America. Yoga is one of the fastest growing trends in business and fitness popularity and we hope to make Texas a real Om for Yoga!
