About Us
For our 10th installment since the inaugural festival, the Lamu Yoga Festival (LYFe) is once again collaborating with yoga and wellness instructors – not only from Kenya, but across the world – to bring 5 days of well-being to the magical island of Lamu. LYFe 2024 will maintain its core focus of bringing yoga, breathing, meditation and informative wellness workshops to the people of Lamu, as well as Kenyans who are seeking to nurture their yoga practice and improve aspects of their wellness. By bringing over 25 practitioners from all over the world to give classes and activities that will be spread throughout the island, attendees will get to sample great Swahili food, while gaining knowledge and information at our featured bazaar
Wellness
Creating an appreciation for Yoga and the general awareness of the benefits of healthier lifestyles is one of the top goals of the festival.
Culture
We don’t have cars, just plenty of donkeys and boats. Without the stress and rush of modern life, it’s easy to feel a million miles away. The simple and delicious Swahili cuisine is part of the reason Lamu is known as Kenya’s health and wellness destination.
Community Impact
The festival raises funds to cover a full year stipend for a local teacher to offer free classes for young women and children in the village. We also raise funds for reusable sanitary pad drives for women no young girls in need in Lamu and the Kenyan coast.
