INAUGURAL YOGA HOUSE AT PRESENT PRACTICE : SXSW 2026

Yoga House Panel SXSW 2026 Sponsored by Arketa and Snap Kitchen

Yoga House SXSW 2026 was such a special week! We had a vision, a framework, and a lineup of some of the most inspiring founders, healers, and leaders we know. But nothing quite prepares you for what happens when the right people come together in the right space, with intention at the center of it all. From the yoga classes and panels to the workshops, working sessions, and sponsors, we had SO much fun! 

What made this week truly unlike anything else was the intention woven into every single day. Yoga House was structured as a 7 day journey through the chakras. Each day an invitation to align a different layer of yourself, from the crown down to the root. Because we believe that the most powerful businesses and brands aren't built from competition, scarcity, or greed. They're built from alignment. From knowing who you are, what you stand for, and operating from that place every single day. 

Over the course of the week, we moved through each energy center together; clearing, opening, and grounding, so that by the final day, we weren't just talking about building something that lasts. We were embodying it. 

Every morning opened on the mat. Every afternoon sparked real conversation. And by Monday night, when Her Mana took the stage and filled the room with magical tunes and epic energy, something crystalized. This is what it looks like when a community moves together from the inside out.

A few moments we'll carry with us:

Yoga House Panel SXSW 2026

Our inspirational panels…when Camille Styles sat down to talk about building a brand from your actual life, and when Mitchell Raisch and Mark Rivers brought a grounded, operational lens to conscious leadership that reminded us: structure is not the opposite of soul. It protects it.

Sunday night Communi-Tea with West China Tea

Sunday night Communi-Tea with West China Tea, where our members and visitors got to enjoy tea service and intimate conversations. Ecstatic dance was the joyful and heart opening release we all needed after a full day, and we’re still shimmying down the halls of the studio. 

Yoga Practice with Kate Waitzkin

And of course, all of our amazing yoga classes. Seeing everyone practicing together and connecting through breath and flow will forever fill our hearts to the brim. 

To everyone who showed up, RSVP'd, rolled out their mat, asked a brave question in the panel room, or stayed late to keep the conversation going: thank you. You made this real.

Yoga House was built on the belief that business is manifestation. That when you invest in your inner world, your outer impact follows. We saw that this week. Over and over again. 

We’re immensely grateful to our sponsors, who all made this possible. The biggest thanks to Lululemon, Arketa, LMNT, Entheos, PKN, Snap Kitchen, and Botany Scientifics. 

We're already dreaming about what comes next. Stay tuned.

With presence,
The Present Practice Team
