    Children, families and teens are also encouraged to attend and participate with a room dedicated for children and family classes on Saturday June 6th<\/sup> and Teen can have access to the full festival schedule at a reduced cost making it easier for all to enjoy the yoga week-end.<\/p>\n

    There will be a small marketplace with 10 local and artisanal vendors; local living and community economic development is at the heart of Yoga Festival Montr\u00e9al; come out and support your community!<\/p>\n

    Yoga Festival Montr\u00e9al \/ Festival de Yoga de Montr\u00e9al is produced by Anne-Lisa de Forest, Nadia Stevens and a core team of dedicated co-ordinators and a slew of incredible volunteers.
