Ideias do Levante – Associação Cultural de Lagoa (Algarve), will organize, in person (at Convent’Bio) and online (via the Zoom platform), the third edition of Lagoa | YogaFest, during the 1st, 2nd & 3rd of September 2023, with the aim of promoting and disseminating the practice of Yoga and the various related themes.
According to the organization, it was decided, once again, to carry out this third festival both in person and online to guarantee the necessary flexibility for its realization/implementation.
There will be space and activities for practitioners of various levels and for people who have never had contact with Yoga, whether these are children, teenagers and/or adults. There will also be a place to publicize facilitators, therapists and places of practice (and practice support) and, in turn, the Municipality of Lagoa, as an inviting meeting point for a healthier and more conscious life.
The organization points out that this is a small event and the capacity for the sessions is reduced. However, this way allows better management and greater attention and proximity between facilitators, practitioners and the space where the event takes place.
