One-on-One with Rani Chaves

This October, The Islands of Tahiti will host their very first international yoga festival—the Tahiti Yoga Festival at Le Tahiti by Pearl Resorts.

Today, we’re happy to introduce the soul behind this beautiful vision—Rani Chaves.

Many will remember Rani from her years working in the travel industry, with her last position as the Regional Director of Sales & Marketing for Pearl Resorts of Tahiti.

From the fast-paced travel world to yoga, what triggered this total shift? “I realised I was just loosing myself. I became so tired. I needed a break from it all. I traveled to India for a yoga teacher training and after that, nothing was ever the same. So I left it all. My job and comfortable paycheck, everything I knew and worked so hard for. India reconnected me to the deeper meaning of Life.”

That profound inner shift eventually became a larger vision: to create an intentional gathering rooted in authenticity, spiritual growth, and cultural connection.

“Creating a better humanity starts with our individual commitment to conscious growth,” she shares.

The Tahiti Yoga Festival is a sister event to the Sedona Yoga Festival, which has been a sacred container for growth and transformation for over 12 years. With her deep ties to both Tahiti and the global yoga community, Rani is bridging worlds—blending the powerful practices of yoga with the ancestral wisdom and natural beauty of her homeland.

For those who are ready to experience more than a retreat—for those seeking deep connection, community, and personal awakening—Tahiti Yoga Festival offers a rare opportunity to return to the essence of life, in one of the most stunning and soulful places on Earth.
