Oregon's Largest Yoga Festival

Join Yogi's Unite Bend for 3 days of relaxation and help support CAN Cancer.

When: September 7 - September 9, 2012.

Yogi's Unite brings together instructors from local studios, those who practice yoga and those trying yoga for the first time.  The goal of Yogi's Unite is to unite our community through yoga. 

The 3 day event involves an event kick-off, yoga classes, educational clinics, exhibitors showcase, silent auction and more.

Funds raised from silent auction and raffle tickets will go to CAN Cancer and in 2011 over $1,700 was donated to CAN Cancer.  100% of funds stay local and help patients, as well as their families, with non-medical living expenses such as fuel, lodging, utilities and food costs.
