Next Friday 🪷 join Zoë for a deeply soul nourishing Lotus slow flow practice to awaken creativity, devotion and generosity of spirit to the tune of live music from the dynamic duo Niko on guitar and Chris on pan drum. Our Trademark Lotus Flow slowed way down with a long gentle flow warm up, creative flowing standing poses sequences, heart opening backbends, luxurious supine cool down and forward bends leading towards a blissful savasana.

Class closes out with a blissful sound bath and Yoga Nidra practice to support deep rest and manifestation of abundance for you, as well as for our sanctuary in the city! a long-form sound bath using sound healing instruments including antique singing bowls from the Himalayas imbued with healing mantras. The frequency of the bowls create vibrational sound harmonics that impact the sympathetic nervous system by engaging the relaxation reflex, (and disrupting the pain reflex) creating an overall deep sense of well being, meditation and relaxation.

This is a fundraising event to support the love for Lotusland campaign - fundraising for the opening build out of our beloved studio’s expansion, our efforts are supported by your generosity and enthusiasm for Co-creating Lotusland’s new home and wellness center 💗

🎃Halloween AcroYoga TOMORROW✨🤸🏾‍♂️ with long-time Lotus students Juan & Camila!

No experience or partner needed; come solo or bring a buddy. Either way, we hope you’ll leave with some new friends! People of all levels, ages, and genders are welcome. The workshop will build in progressions and modifications to fit everyone. Costumes are optional but encouraged, as long as you can move comfortably — think skeleton onesie, not inflatable T-Rex. And last but not least, we’ll wrap up with candy for all!
All the proceeds benefit Lotusland’s fundraiser!

Juan and Camila have been practicing acro yoga together since 2020, after each discovering it at yoga studios in their former hometowns of New Orleans and Houston. A certified acro yoga teacher, Juan has taught all-levels classes for several years, with an emphasis on play, thoughtful progressions, and strengthening drills. Originally very nervous when her feet were off the ground, Camila now loves helping people through those same fears. Her favorite part of the practice is building the communication and trust it takes to work with a partner - and seeing the excitement when people learn something new together.

Since moving to San Francisco, Juan and Camila have found a warm welcome and many instant friends in the local acro community. They’re excited to share that spirit with Lotusland through their workshops.

This week we honor the deeper meanings behind Halloween, or Semhain, October 31st 🎃 Originating in ancient Europe as a Celtic Fire festival, Samhain is a celebration of the end of the harvest and the start of the coldest half of the year. Samhain’s association with death and the Dead reflects the honoring of Nature’s rhythms and this important cycle in rebirth. In many places, Samhain coincides with the end of the growing season. Vegetation dies returning to the earth with killing frosts and death is in the air. This is why we say the veil is thin between the world of the living and the realm of the Dead and communication with the spirit world becomes easier.

Join us for a costume optional healthy pre-Halloween happy hour Partner Acro Yoga hoedown with Juan and Camila at 5:30 and learn some scary yogic tricks and stay for treats and tea 👻

No experience or partner needed; come solo or bring a buddy. Either way, we hope you’ll leave with some new friends! People of all levels, ages, and genders are welcome. The workshop will build in progressions and modifications to fit everyone. Costumes are optional but encouraged, as long as you can move comfortably — think skeleton onesie, not inflatable T-Rex.

Full Moon & Scorpio Season Blessings Lotusland loves! 🪷🌕 ♏️(+ the start of Mercury retrograde!)

Last night‘s Full Moon in Ta**us illuminates the deep and transformative work you’ve been doing in your relationship, within and without, and calling on you to lean into rituals of self-care to rest and restore to prepare for any overwhelm rising to the surface. The intensity of Scorpio Season further encourages a diving deep into your emotional self, highlighting what’s growing and evolving but also what needs to SHED or rework. Both Venus and Mercury are retrograde in Scorpio so we are all bound to be going deeper into our shadowy feelings of fear and doubt so be gentle and take care of yourselves and your loved ones as we’re all going through some difficult times.

We’ve got everything you need to rejuvenate during this intense season (candlelight flow 3 nights a week!) including community events that encourage you to lean on your support systems, commune with the spirit world, and illuminate your heart through sacred song ✨ Join us for these upcoming transformative events, FUNDRAISING for the growth of our sanctuary and community 🫶🏽

❣️Get Up, Stand Up - Root Down, Rise Up! TOMORROW Saturday October 24th | 1 - 4pm

As our hearts continue to break witnessing the unjust and brutal actions of our government, we can fall into cycles of reactivity, fear, depression, rage or apathy that prevent us from being able to respond thoughtfully and compassionately. We can feel powerless... but we aren’t. We can support basic civil and human rights instead of using all our energy towards hate and fear.

While a $25 or $50 donation, getting out the vote, making calls, posting on social media, divesting from purchasing or marching in a protest will not end all the terror and harm in our government, it can help our marginalized and traumatized brothers and sisters feel more protected and supported through the harsh conditions they face. The ACLU is on the streets in the courts fighting for everyones constitutional rights and Lotusland has been with them since January 2024!

You’ll leave this workshop with practical YOGA tools to support your resilience, regulate your stress, and ACTIVIST tools to support the community in using their voting power to fight for justice, freedom, and happiness for all beings!

No prior yoga or voter outreach experience needed. All practices are accessible and adaptable for all bodies and abilities.

to our Laughing Lotus days on 16th street!✨🪷😍

Our big, beautiful, sun-drenched sanctuary opened in 2006 and had 14 years of yoga and music and dance and friendship, countless kirtans and yoga schools that nourished the spirit of the Lotusland we experience today.

Keeping the soul of LLSF alive, we evolved into a fully sliding-scale and by donation community yoga center to make yoga and it’s allied practices of movement, music, meditation and mantra available to everyone in our Mission and 24th Street Neighborhood.

In our 4 years as a culturally diverse - women-owned and operated San Francisco sanctuary for physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual wellbeing and education - we’ve seen people of all ages from all walks of life become healthier and happier and more at peace with themselves in the midst of the infinite challenges we face.

We have cherished every moment of being our intimate sacred sanctuary, but we’re READY to GROW into a bigger sanctuary once again. None of the personal attention and community connection you experience will be lost - Now you can expect two practice rooms for so many more class times, options and learning opportunities! This will be so much more than a studio, we are creating a center for organizing - serving and uplifting our city. For every beautiful being we impact, we know we generate a ripple of change that can reach their families, communities, and society to spread more beauty, love and light into our world.

With your support, we can expand the impact of Lotusland Yoga SF and empower you and more people to become the happiest and healthiest versions of themselves, creating a place and a community where we see the best of being human. Please help us keep our vision and special space alive to touch more people’s lives and inspire even more waves of transformation and healing throughout our city!

✨Harvest Kirtan, Food Drive & Lotusland Fundraiser✨ Please join us for a community celebration honoring the spirit of gratitude by giving thanks and praise through sacred song, offering food donations to the SF Food Bank and enjoying vegan chai and treats together in our Lotusland sanctuary🙏🏽

Our beloved enCHANTRESS, Astrud Castillo will be visiting and sharing her exquisite voice along with her band of talented mystic musician Saheb on Tabla and ALL the proceeds will benefit our Love for Lotusland Fundraiser to co-create our expansion down the block!
Call and response of sacred sounds and mantras illuminates our heart and awakens our consciousness. It is not important that you can sing or that you understand the words. Kirtan is an experience. It is a practice to release you out of the thinking mind and drop you gently into the heart. MAN means mind and TRA is instrument. So it is through these sacred sounds we are able to conduct the instrument of the mind. Together we create this sacred union with healing intentions for the whole of the world 💗

Join us - no experience necessary, sliding-scale $25-$108 🪷 PLEASE DONATE GENEROUSLY AND BRING YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO SUPPORT OUR CAUSE!
