Our Mission

Here at The Global Yogi we want to help the spread of peace throughout the world by promoting the study and practice of yoga!

We want to help bring the gift of yoga to more people throughout the world, and thus be an agent in the promotion of peace, harmony and love on planet Earth. We fulfil our mission through publishing articles and information about wonderful yoga events in six continents around the world, as well as connecting a community of global yogis and facilitating the fluid exchange of yoga related knowledge and experience on an international level.

What we do

We publicize yoga events from around the world, including Retreats, Workshops and Teacher Trainings, and we also profile Retreat Centres, Yoga Studios and Yoga Teachers. We publish articles about yoga and related spiritual practices, such as meditation. We write about yoga festivals happening around the world, and we interview prominent yogis, both global and local.

Who we are

The Global Yogi was founded by Michelle Taffe – a yogi, traveller, web designer and writer. Always looking to practice yoga on her international adventures, Michelle was looking for a website about all things yoga around the world, with something more than just place, date and contact details. Failing to discover such a site inspired her to harness her creative energies to bring The Global Yogi to life.

Where we are located

Current headquarters of TGY are in Melbourne, Australia.
