Presented by The Texas Fitness & Wellness Expo

The Texas Fitness & Wellness Expo promotes all aspects of the health and wellness industry and supports the wellbeing of all of our neighbors across Texas.

More than 75 local and regional fitness and wellness experts will be on-hand to interact with attendees and demonstrate how their field can improve health and help people to live more fulfilling lives.

The main event at the Expo is the 7th Annual Texas Yoga Championships, the premiere event for the state's yoga community. The competition gives health and fitness enthusiasts the opportunity to learn more about yoga and see some of the top practitioners in the state showcase their talents.

During the event, 75 yoga practitioners will compete in four categories and the finalist of each category will be flown to California to compete for the national and international titles. Competitors and spectators from Houston, Dallas, Ft. Worth, Austin, San Antonio and around the state will come to The Woodlands for the weekend.
