About Bhakti Lounge Wellington

Bhakti Lounge is a volunteer-run community space on Level 1 at 175 Vivian Street in Te Aro, Wellington. The website says it has been running for more than twenty years and started as a place for yoga, kirtan and shared dinners. It now offers yoga, kirtan, mantra meditation, sound baths, wellness and wisdom talks, live music nights, workshops, retreats, paint and sip evenings and an event called SoulFeast. The kitchen serves plant-based dinners four nights a week and lunch five days a week. Classes are open to new and experienced practitioners, and most come with a plant-based meal afterwards. The website says student classes cost $10, and asks people to check the schedule for them.

Recent events and class times are listed on the website, so the schedule there is the place to see what is on. The lounge describes itself as a space for people who like their evenings to mean something, and as a place where regulars and new people are welcomed alike. Its website also invites people to sign up for updates on upcoming events.
