After another terrific festival in 2024, the Mallorca BJJ and Yoga Festival is back from October 22-27, 2024, for its 5th edition! It will be the 7th total when factoring the 2 Spring events we have at the end of every April!
The festival features seminars and workshops throughout the day and evening. One third of these are Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) focused, another third are yoga-based, and the last third includes various therapies like Wim Hof, health-based lectures, and ceremonies such as cacao, ancestral medicine, and dance. Classes are presented by teachers from around the world, each bringing their own concepts, techniques, and philosophies about their practice/discipline in the many on-site event rooms and outdoor places by the warm, crystal-clear Mediterranean sea.
Ticket holders are completely free to plan their festival experience as they wish. They can attend every seminar every hour, or just one or two, then go and explore the historic city of Palma, free water dive with our on-site instructors, paddle to a nearby café on a SUP, sit in the sun and listen to the poolside DJ with a beverage, or relax in the many quiet, private areas on a lounger and just take a nap.
