One of our main mantras at Lotusland is an invitation to “move like yourself” in harmony with your body, mind and soul. For students newer to yoga or just beginning this may seem like a foreign instruction as we are so used to being told exactly what to do! One of the ways to listen to your body is to adapt the poses to meet you in the moment which is always changing is through the magic of yoga props! In this Saturday’s Yoga for Absolute Beginners Workshop, Tony, our prop master, will guide you though a two hour work/playshop to develop the perfect practice for YOU to incorporate these tools in any class you take. ✨BENEFITS OF YOGA PROPS FOR BEGINNERS✨ • help you understand your body’s unique range of motion, guiding you towards the ideal alignment for your body. • increase awareness of alignment and muscle engagement. • increase flexibility. • enable you to modify your practice in response to injury, pain or discomfort. • provide support as you explore new and more challenging postures • increase or decrease the intensity of a posesupport your body to minimise muscular effort, allowing you to hold restorative or yin poses for a longer period of time. Yoga’s main practice is Ahimas, or non-harming and Yoga props are there to support your body instead of pushing, forcing and struggling as well as offering a supportive way for your body to move with more grace and to practice peacefully, honestly and openly. Register NOW and learn all the tips and tricks for a practice you will LOVE! 💗 Saturday 7/20 1-3pm

We still have 4 spots open for our Yoga School 200 Hour weekend Teacher Training beginning February 3rd! 🎉 We cannot wait to share this life changing program with you in our new space! You will immerse yourselves in the many paths and practices of Yoga through deep personal and community study and learn to incorporate all eight limbs of yoga into every aspect of your lives. Many of our Lotus grads begin teaching professionally right after graduation and go on to teach on the Lotusland schedule, mentor the teacher trainees and teach trainings in SF and abroad…many of whom had no desire to teach when they registered! Our training size is intentionally limited to 16 students for us to better support your personal path in a safe space where you will be challenged physically, inspired mentally and awakened spiritually. So if you’re feeling drawn to deepen your practice, reach out to us with questions or bring them to our final Info Session with Jasmine this Saturday at 1pm

⛈️Storm Repair & Temporary Closure Since our NYE flood, we’ve been trying to recover and assess the situation and the damage to assure our return to offering you dry and safe yoga classes, as water is still coming up from the floors. Unfortunately after the second storm, we learned today that there is too much water underneath our floors that has no way to drain or dry out, we have no choice but to bring up the floors to allow all the water to dry and and replace with brand new floors. We are so sorry to inform you that we will have to close our studio for another week while the floors get redone to make sure we completely address the issue and assure the safety of all of you. We plan to have doors open again on Monday, January 16th starting bright and early at 7am but until then we will be hosting our Lotusland Live classes on livestream daily with your favorite teachers and will make updates to our video library of classes. You can also sign up for any class and receive the link to practice anytime! We so regret any inconvenience or disappointment this unfortunate obstacle has been to your daily practice and plans but we cannot wait to open our doors to you in 10 days to recommit to our practices wholeheartedly! In Service and Devotion, Jasmine and the Lotusland Team 🪷

“To me, every yoga class feels like a reset—you move through the asanas and recalibrate. Each vinyasa is a reset—a transition which ends one cycle to prepare you for the next. And of course, each breath is a reset—every exhale is an ending and every inhale is a new beginning. If we are truly in the present moment, then every breath is a reset, a restart, a rebirth. Here’s to new beginnings!” . . Check out Tony’s Tuesday evening vinyasa class 5:30-6:30pm pst. Replay available! . . #Realmendoyoga #yogaeverydamnday #yogadudes #yogamen #mensyoga #menwhoyoga #yoga #yogaposes #yogainspiration #yogavideo #practiceandalliscing #howtoyoga #breatherelaxbelieve #yogasequence #yogasequences #vinyasaflowyoga #vinyasaflow #sanfranciscoyoga #quarantineyoga

These days, we can all use more support for our fried nervous systems. Processing a world pandemic, deeper understanding of imposed racial oppression, shifting relationships, work stress, or a host of other things making our spirts heavy, has made it much more difficult to settle our bodies and sooth our minds. The high levels of fear, stress and worry we are experiencing, can result in feeling more amped, in the constant state of fight, flight, or freeze. This class will give you the support you need to unwind and find some much needed rest. ✨Wednesday Night Yoga Nidra✨ livestream 8-9pm pt August 4th with Dia Penning 💗recording sent to all who sign up Through regular practice of Yoga Nidra we counteract the effect of stress and overthinking by accessing different parts of the brain, helping to regulate our awareness, engage the parasympathetic nervous system and develop greater balance between our bodies and minds. #yoganidra #onlineyoga #livestreamyoga #bodyandaoul
