The Bay Area Premiere (and World Premiere)

of the film was a HUGE success!

The wave has begun…

Thank you to everyone who came out on Sunday to experience the launch of the film at the Sausalito Film Festival. The beautiful Mission Bay Church at Fort Baker was filled with so many wonderful people and great energy. People were on their feet when the film ended! It was a very special day for us at the Sausalito Film Festival.

Here are some things that people said after the premiere.

“Brilliant photography, profound and heartfelt interviews…just a beautiful film.”
- Gene Teglovic, Author of Thought Management 101: Wake Up and Be Happy

“You really captured the essence of Anusara in this film. Can’t wait to share it with people in my life who are not yet familiar with Anusara Yoga.”
- AJ, Anusara yoga practitioner

“I don’t practice yoga, but after watching this film I am open to the possibilities. You did a great job at inspiring the mainstream and not just preaching to the choir.”
- JW, Musician

The Sausalito Film Festival organizers were thrilled by the turnout and the positive energy that the event brought to the film festival. They are now considering making this an annual part of the Sausalito Film Festival.

Stay tuned for photos!
