Tradition dictates that a 10-year anniversary is celebrated with aluminum; modern norms have ditched the tin for diamonds. As we begin celebrating 10 years of Wanderlust in 2019, we think the diamond is apropos: Over the years, we\u2019ve certainly refined the proverbial lump of mindful coal into what we consider a shining beacon of the promise of wellness for all.<\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a journey\u2014and there have certainly been plenty of bumps\u00a0along the road<\/a>. But one of the things that hasn\u2019t changed (and of which, full disclosure, we\u2019re pretty darn proud!) is our great relationship with world-class teachers. Every year we bring you a roster of renowned talent to help you find your true north. In this series, we\u2019ll highlight some of those teachers who have been with us over the years\u2014and how they look back at their relationship with Wanderlust over the past decade.\u00a0<\/em>This week:\u00a0Sarah Tiefenthaler<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t miss your chance to be a part of this very special 10-Year Anniversary! Join the global mindful movement at a\u00a0Wanderlust event<\/a>\u00a0this year.<\/em><\/p>\n

Tell us about your first time at Wanderlust.<\/h3>\n

My first Wanderlust experience took place in Quebec at Mont Tremblant in August 2014. It was the last festival of the summer and is one of the furtherest locations from where I live in LA, but I was recommended to manage the SUP program and teach. I of course immediately jumped at the opportunity\u2014I think I literally jumped! It didn\u2019t matter how far away it was, it could have been in Egypt… All that mattered was, it was Wanderlust. Being asked to be a part of it was a dream come true!<\/p>\n

Teaching SUP Yoga at Wanderlust is a special experience. We often have many students on the water that have never attempted floating yoga before. Witnessing their joy and excitement is truly special. To see them in awe of what they are doing: flowing through yoga poses on top of their paddleboard with the gorgeous backdrop of mountains, lake, and summer sky, is like watching a child experience something wonderful for the very first time. It is real and it is pure. I feel truly blessed to be given the opportunity to teach a grown-up something new in a setting so magical.<\/p>\n
