The practice of yoga is often thought of as a quiet and introspective solo activity, but NomadYOGI is an online yoga community to help yogis around the world connect when they're off the mat. Described as 'The Yogi’s Social Network,' this online community serves as a place for students and teachers of all levels discover nearby studios, upcoming retreats and events around the globe, as well as deepen knowledge by reading blog posts and participating in discussions relating to topics like ayurveda, theory, anatomy and asanas. Yoga teachers can post short bios, photos, answer questions and have others submit reviews on how they tend to guide their students.
To connect with the global yogi community, creating a profile on NomadYOGI is free and is as easy as logging in through your Facebook account or setting up an account via email.
