Volunteers make up the heart and soul of Telluride Yoga Festival. Every year, a team of 50+ passionate and dedicated yogis help us transform the iconic Telluride Mountain Village into the intimate home of the Telluride Yoga Festival. Volunteering gives you an opportunity to connect with likeminded yogis, work amongst the scenic backdrop of the San Juan Mountains, and attend the festival for the low-cost of $49 in exchange for 15-20 hours of volunteer work.

Want to join the team? To get started, read our 2023 Volunteer Info and then complete the digital volunteer application at the bottom of the page once it is live. If you are accepted, our volunteer coordinator will reach out to you by May to confirm your availability and assign volunteer roles. 

We accept applications on a rolling basis until all positions have been filled. Individuals will be chosen based on prior experience, availability, skill and enthusiasm.
