BUMI 2026 RECAP — What an absolute joy! Nature, humanity and wellbeing converged for two days of play, exploration and connection. Words fall short describing the feels watching the weekend unfold, but thank you: to every festival goer, facilitator, partner, and volunteer for walking with us.

It sure takes a village, and we made it happen - together. Enjoy this selection of monents captured from Day 1. More to come ✨

ICE & SPICE, 4 July — You won’t like the cold, which is exactly why it’s worth stepping in. Led by , you’ll start with the breath, and then ease into movement as part of the buildup.

The first few moments in the ice will be loud: but you’ll eventually find a quiet and calm within, and a deeper understanding of why this is worth doing. You don’t need to be fit or brave for this - just a little curious.

The cold can be a teacher.

Gift of the Cold is a 1.5-hour journey into the Living Yoga Method, beginning with grounding breathwork and purposeful movement that builds awareness of body and mind, before stepping into Penang's first-ever jungle ice bath immersion, held within the lush embrace of the Garden.

As the cold arrives, so does something unexpected: steadiness. Calm. A reminder that the quiet, resilient current within you has been there all along.

Led by Kerry Willmer, yoga teacher, breath coach, women's circle facilitator, herbalist, and forest bathing guide, and founder of Inner Living Yoga. Kerry guides adults, children, and teens through transformative practices that reconnect body, earth, and self.

Step in. Soften. Discover what the cold has to offer.

Reconnect with yourself through movement.

Primal Play in Nature is a site-responsive movement workshop that asks a simple question: what does your body remember, when you let it move without a script?

Through flowing gestures, guided exploration, and mindful presence, you'll move with the dancers - responding to the textures, sounds, and spaces of the Garden itself. There is no fixed choreography. Only instinct, play, and a deepening relationship with the living world beneath your feet.

Led by Aida Redza, Kakiseni Gamechanger 2018 and BOH Cameronian Best Choreographer award winner, whose site-responsive works have been performed across Southeast Asia and beyond and Luvenia Kalia, a dancer, producer, and dance anthropologist with over 25 years of experience whose work weaves together movement, memory, and place.

Come barefoot if you can.

Your voice is an instrument. Come learn how to tune it.

Nāda Yoga: Vocal Vibrations is a meditative group sound experience where participants come together to create a shared field of resonance through gentle vocal toning. No singing experience is needed, only a willingness to breathe, listen, and let your voice find its way out naturally.

As voices blend, the vibrations move through the chest, throat, and skull stimulating the vagus nerve, settling the nervous system, and creating a quiet sense of coherence that is difficult to find alone.

Led by Regina Woodard, board-certified Health and Wellness Coach, founder of In the Bright Somatic Wellness, and author of Chakra Centers: Harness Your Chi through Creativity. She teaches Nāda Yoga and Somatic Sensing in Penang, holding space for the kind of healing that hums.

Come as you are. Bring your voice. Let the resonance carry you.

BuMI is for the whole family, including the little ones.

From learning ancient jungle survival skills alongside Semai elders Pak Put and Tok Batin like building shelters, setting traps, cooking with bamboo, and trying their hand at a blowpipe to shaping their own pottery with Shiramics, pounding petals into paper for Hapa Zome prints, painting on wood canvases, and sweeping colour onto their very own acrylic canvas with Frank de Caires.

Kids can also press flowers and leaves into their own mini nature booklet, plant a local herb or ulam cutting to take home and tend, or lose themselves in open-ended free play throughout the day.
A weekend rooted in nature.

Suitable for children aged 4–12. Please note, Pottery is a paid Drop-In session.

🌿 Your BuMI Fest Kids Pass gives your child access to all Scheduled Experiences and Drop-In Sessions specifically designed for children, the day's Festival Highlight (except Sunday evening), other Drop-In Sessions where age appropriate and private access to the Garden.
