History

Yoga and Meditation have become mainstays for mainstream society and a once taboo practice is now part of our common culture.  Hundreds of students are flooding local classes, and a huge industry has developed from the growing popularity of yoga.  As students become more and more interested in the philosophical foundations of yoga, a greater demand is being placed on society to produce  events, classes and products for the growing market of yoga. 

Everyday, more and more of us are changing our lives as a result of our relationship to our yoga practices, embracing a more healthy, conscious and holistic lifestyle.  Our relationship with our food choices are changing.  Our relationship to exercise is becoming more balanced.  And our relationships with others are taking a more spiritual form.  As we increasingly transform ourselves we are transforming the world around us, by being more informed individuals. 

Those who practice yoga and meditation have taken their lives in the direction of a devoted practice of giving, sharing and reaching out to our community through non profit organization and charity.  There are booming yoga magazines,  extensive products for yoga and meditation, and holistic vegan/vegetarian and organic choices for our food.

A healthy night life is essential for the gradual progress of the yoga industry to continue to sustain this evolving community of yogis.   Many of us who embrace a new healthy, conscious and balanced lifestyle are lacking the fundamental element of a social scene and nightlife which reflects our new value systems, ideals and beliefs.  As a result, Banyan Root has organically grown from the ever increasing demands placed on the yoga industry to provide for its constituency.

We hope you enjoy our night life events as much as we enjoy putting these events on for you!
