ESTEVAN - Kim Mayuk believes the fourth annual OM Yoga Festival, held July 20 and 21 at Rotary Park, was the best one yet.
Approximately 65 participants – the majority of them from outside the city – attended the festival. Mayuk, who runs the festival and owns the OM Yoga Studio in Estevan, said instructors Ryan Leier and his partner Dani Hebert, who travelled from B.C. to Estevan for the weekend, were definitely the highlight.
"They're well-known all over the world for 小蓝视频 incredible yoga instructors," said Mayuk.
Leier is an ambassador for Lululemon who has taught at many high-profile events.
"They do a lot of travelling and yoga together," said Mayuk.
Kirtan, which Mayuk described as music, mantra and meditation, another highlight of the festival and a new experience that hasn't been offered locally before. It was led by Shell Andrea and Anton Aguair. Mayuk said it was a big hit with all of the students.
Other instructors included Mayuk, Lindsay Cameron, Jay Day, Grace Boyd, Kim Zacaruk, Kelsey Rydberg, Elle Garagan, Lacie Nilsen, Dan Wilvers and LaDawn Insull.
Vendors and exhibitors provided skin and body care services with homemade lotions, deodorants, body butters, sunscreens and bug sprays; gemstone jewelry and home accents; incense; essential oils; reflexology; and reiki sessions. Kimberley Dyck from Café Nourish sold gluten and dairy-free muffins and lemonade elixir drinks.
EB's catered the event with gluten-free, vegetarian-option lunches each day.
Classes were held on the beach at Woodlawn's Boundary Dam Beach Site for the first time since 2019, and Mayuk said it was also nice to have access to the stage at Boundary Dam.
