Australian Week of Yoga
Supporting the health
& wellbeing of all.
Australian Week of Yoga is an inspiring initiative by Yoga Australia, the peak body representing yoga teachers, therapists, and trainers across the country. This special week honours the invaluable role yoga professionals play in nurturing the health, wellbeing, and spirit of our communities.
For decades, Australian yogis have helped shape the cultural landscape by bringing ancient wisdom from the East to our shores. Today, we’re privileged to stand on the shoulders of these pioneers — and this week, we celebrate their legacy and the vibrant yoga community they helped create.
Australian Week of Yoga is a proud extension of International Yoga Day (21 June).

It’s a thoughtful look at why a steady, grounded practice matters in an age of quick fixes.
