❣️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!

🪷Dearest Lotusland, students, friends and family, neighbors and beautiful beings everywhere 🫶🏼

We are so excited to FINALLY announce we will get the keys on January 11th, 2027 and begin our buildout for our next sanctuary in the city! We are spreading our wings down the block to our gorgeous new neighborhood nest at 1234 Valencia Street between 24th & 23rd (the old Yoga Tree, now Library and soon to be New Lotusland Yoga Center SF!) We have so much to do and want to do it as soon as possible get open for you by March - we are asking for your help to raise the funds we need as the prices are going up for services and materials every day and we have spent and we have outspent our resources and loans already. We are now looking for donors and even investors or loans for 10K, 25K or more to reach our 200K goal. Please reach out if you or anyone you know is able to help co-create a Yoga Sanctuary, Community Center and School for everyone in our city to belong and practice regardless of cost. Please share this post with everyone in your community to be a part of our mission in the Mission!

We have cherished every moment of being our intimate sacred sanctuary and 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! We will have two, additional treatment rooms for body work and yoga privates, a Lotusland Tea Lounge and a Lotusland Lending Library - so we can share the Lotusland mission in the Mission - to make the transformative practices of Yoga available and accessible to ALL - with even more wonderful souls in our City.

Ok, we know your number one question is WHEN?!?! Knowing everything takes longer - We are aiming for a big and beautiful opening celebration in early Spring 2027 and will share all the details as soon as they are revealed.

Our Fall Sale ends on November 1st! ✨Become a Monthly Lotusland Member for $49 for your first Month and $149 after or consider becoming a Donor member for $199 to support our expansion in 2027!

A membership at your sanctuary in the city is for supporting you in making a conscious commitment to yourself and your practice and an opportunity for you to explore all the class styles we have to offer!

Our mission has never been to just take class and roll up the practice with our mats at the end of class. It’s to encourage and be of service to compassionate, thoughtful yoga practitioners who honor the ancient yogic path to positively impact the world around them.

And we as a heart-centered business are committed to providing every student who walks through the doors with a spiritually-centered yoga practice for physical and mental wellbeing and provide a yoga education where each student is known, supported, and encouraged to be who they are as well as being challenged on the path to keep showing up for themselves and therefore their families and communities! This year’s priority is to encourage us all to dedicate more time on the mat, less time on screens. To move, breathe, rest, sit and sing. To quiet our minds and free our hearts and souls in the studio and at home through our membership 💗

Coming up next Saturday ✨Root Down, Rise Up - A Midterm Election Yoga for Justice & Community Outreach Workshop with Vatissa!

We know so many of you (and us!) are feeling anxious and unsettled by all the news at home and worldwide and hope Lotusland has been a refuge and sanctuary of healing and peace and protection for you in the midst of life’s turmoil.

We’re bringing back Vatissa’s awesome Yoga for Justice offering ahead of the general election, and we are partnering with the ACLU to host a VOTER OUTREACH Community Event for the last hour of the workshop!

Join us at your sanctuary in the city for a trauma-informed yoga workshop that supports healing, resilience, and nervous system care, and help get out the VOTE before the November 3rd general election.

This trauma-informed workshop is designed to provide immediate stress relief and support nervous system regulation for those advocating for social justice in a challenging political climate.

By exploring the roots of Yoga’s ethical practices - The Yamas and practices of Pranayama (breathing practices), Asana (gentle, breath-focused postures), and Dhyana (meditation), participants will engage in healing, accessible practices that foster reconnection and care.

Then we’ll harness that energy for a General Election Voter Outreach Activity. You’ll leave 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!

to our FIRST YEAR on Valencia Street 😍

We have LOVED every moment of growing with you over the last four years at our beloved 1360 Valencia space, but we have outgrown our tiny temple in our Mission/Noe/Bernal village and it’s time to expand. We are so excited create this space for you, a larger nest in the neighborhood to call home to spread our wings in 2027, and we are inviting you all to come together with us co-create something magical together! ✨

💗Co-Create Lotusland Yoga Community Center and School! Become a part of our celebrated center’s expansion 💗

We are devoted and committed to keep our work going, growing and thriving even in the midst of the incredibly high prices our city faces! We want to keep our sliding-scale system in place and believe in the idea of equity for those who have a little more to pay what they can and for those who have less to pay what they can. We are so excited to spread our wings to make space for more students to receive the life changing gifts of movement and mindfulness and become empowered to make positive change within their own lives.

Expanding our offerings – classes, workshops, trainings, community classes, volunteer opportunities, apprenticeships and employment – means we can amplify and empower the voices of amazing people in our programs!

Check out all the ways to donate at Loveforlotusland.com and please help spread the news of our mission in the mission!

✨Do you know anyone who is able to invest in our cause? Please send them our way [email protected] as we a have a long way to go towards our fundraising goal!

Limited classes today for Indigenous People Day 🙏🏽 For those of you who have today off, we hope your are having a restful or adventurous three day weekend and can include some yogic goodness into to your day. Join us today in Pracita Park at 10am to take you practice, your friends and Family outdoors and bring a picnic to stay and enjoy the beautiful day or take hike up Bernal Hill for the most breathtaking views of our gorgeous city!

We will be open for a very limited schedule of two classes today 11 am with Jasmine and a portion of Zoë’s 6pm class will be donated to Native American Wellness Institute. A non-profit organization founded in 2000, NWI’s mission is to “promote the well-being of Native people through programs and trainings that embrace the teachings and traditions of our ancestors.” “Wellness” might be a modern buzzword, but for the Native community, access to ancestral teachings to help physical, spiritual, emotional and mental well-being is a powerful tool for healing generations of trauma.

Whatever you are doing today try to take time in reflecting on the history of the land we live on and call “The United States of America”. Renaming “Columbus Day” to Indigenous Peoples’ Day draws attention to the pain, trauma, and broken promises that were erased by the celebration of Columbus Day and Holidays like Thanksgiving. Before his arrival, the indigenous folk were successful self-sufficient communities that sustained life by being deeply connected to their sacred traditions and land for thousands of years. For the Native Americans, Columbus Day has always been hurtful as it glorifies the violent past of racism and genocide and 500 years of colonial torture and oppression by European explorers like Columbus and those who first settled in America. So today, spend time in nature if you can to honor this holy ground we call home, talk to your children and family and friends about the real history of The United States, research the tribal lands you live on and their customs, explore books and films by Native Americans, give back by donating to Native American foundations and Non-Profits.
