Step into the Spectrum Stage 🌈

One out of our five stage areas, Spectrum is our primary indoor gathering space designed for connection, expression, and shared experience.

We begin the weekend in a meaningful way with opening ceremony led by Sinixt Matriarch Marilyn James, grounding us in place, presence, and respect for the land we gather on.

From there, the space opens into a full spectrum of offerings for all levels, including:

🧘 Embodied flow + Hatha yoga
🌀 Somatic and therapeutic movement
đŸŒŹïž Breathwork + nervous system support
🧠 Yoga therapy + fascia education
💃 Dance + creative expression
đŸŽ¶ Yin + ambient sound journeys
đŸŽ€ Vocal activation + sound healing
đŸ•ș Community dance + evening integration

From gentle, grounding practices to more dynamic and expressive sessions, the Spectrum Stage truly lives up to its name: offering a full range of experiences to meet you wherever you’re at.

Come as you are, and explore what calls you. Tickets available on our website.

We feel incredibly grateful to gather in the Slocan Valley, on Sinixt təmxÊ·Ășlaʔx.

There’s something about this place that’s hard to put into words—a place both welcoming and wild.

Towering mountains, glacier-fed waters, dense forests, and quiet pockets of life that feel both grounding and alive. It’s a landscape that invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and bask in the majesty of nature.

To host our gathering here is a privilege we don't take lightly. This land shapes the experience as much as anything we program—holding space for connection, reflection, and community in a way only the Kootenays can.

We can’t wait to share it with you. Happy Earth Day!

It's been a soggy start to the spring here in the Kootenays, and we've noticed how it affects our energy. Let's clear that out with Kapalabhati.

Kapalabhati (Skull Shining Breath) is a powerful breathwork practice to release stagnant energy, boost metal clarity and bring your nervous system back online.

A few rounds can make a big difference, helping energize us as the season changes.

An intimate glimpse into the night we shared at 'evolve', a sober-curious dance party.

From the opening circle to the final sound bath, 'evolve' unfolded as an evening of music, movement, and powerful moments of connection in between.

Thank you to the performers who shaped the sound of the night, the artists who added depth and ambiance with their work, the volunteers who helped hold the space, and everyone who showed up ready to dance, listen, and be part of something a little different. We love you!

So much of what makes the Kootenay Wellness Festival possible (the care, the organization, the vision, the countless details behind the scenes) is carried by women who deeply believe in the power of community connection and accessible wellness.

Today is a moment to recognize not only the women within our organization, but also the many women in our community who show up as artists, practitioners, volunteers, and leaders. Your creativity, resilience, and willingness to hold space for others help shape the kind of region we all want to live in.

Happy International Women’s Day!
