About the Creator and Organizer

Hi! I'm Monica Phillips, a Lamorinda mom and yoga teacher. It is my passion to help people live a good life and connect to mind, body, and soul.My journey to yoga started almost 30 years ago. I was a runner from an early age and starting experiencing joint pain at 11 years old. As an adult, I've struggled with food allergies, anxiety, and toxic work cultures. I was exposed to mindfulness and healers from a very early age but was more interested in gymnastics.Lucky for me, in 1996, I walked into my first yoga studio and my practice has evolved and grown in the most amazing ways. It got me through some challenging life circumstances and led me on a path to teach. I've been teaching yoga in-person in Lafayette and Orinda since 2020 and my journey continues to evolve and grow.Yoga is a space to connect to mindfulness, breathing, movement, and shape our well-being from the inside out.I am thrilled to take on this role as yoga festival planner and bring my love of yoga to the community. I hope you will join me.Please check back soon or subscribe to get updates and special offers. I'll keep you posted as we add speakers and a schedule.Are you interested in partnering, sponsoring, or speaking? Please get in touch!
