Norwich Yoga Festival

Norwich Yoga Festival · July 2025

Two days at the Norwich Yoga Festival — sun-warmed grass, hundreds of people moving together, and the kind of open, unselfconscious joy that's a gift to photograph. From slow morning flows to the whole field dancing by mid-afternoon, this is how the weekend felt.
