About the studio

Nestled in a quiet valley in the heart of San Francisco Yoga Tree Hayes is a home away from home, a base for your yoga journey. The lobby is often full of students chatting and visiting with front desk staff or each other as they gather for class. As you stow your shoes next to your fellow yogi you may find you quickly recognize faces and are welcomed into this small community.

There are 2 changing rooms and plenty of yoga supplies to support your practice. The studio itself is well lit and welcoming – with sunlight streaming through the skylights and a lovely mural of Krishna at the far end. There is a real feeling of community that pervades this studio and makes students want to return. The teachers are friendly and accessible for questions and there is a diverse array of styles informing the classes. It’s a wonderful place to get support, practice yoga, make new friends… and then head back out to the vibrant street scene on Hayes, from retail stores to La Boulange across the street, pizza next door or taking in the sun in the Hayes park.

The Yoga of Mysticism & Ritual by Dana Damara & Mark Morford Mysticism: The belief that everything you think you know is but a shy fragment of a slim possibility. In other words: There’s a vast ocean of spiritual information inaccessible to the intellect (and the fickle senses), and only through contemplation and self-surrender can you truly attain complete union with/absorption into the Divine. I mean, obviously. Ritual: A regular, dedicated series of ceremonial actions performed according to a prescribed order, giving shape and meaning to the madcap illusion of life. The glue in your divine scrapbook, the meat in your sacred burrito, the rubber on the road of the spiritual path. Join two of the West Coast’s most esteemed, powerhouse yogis, Mark Morford and Dana Damara, for insight (and a sneak preview of our upcoming 2019 Bali retreat) into what life looks like with dedicated yogic ritual and practice. Learn simple techniques that you can incorporate into your daily life that will support your “mystical” connection to Source, God, Soul, Universe, the Absolute… whatever you call that essential life force (prana) that lives inside/courses through you. Simply put, the sooner you begin to align with Truth as often as possible, the sooner you live a life that is actually your own. This workshop will include: • Meditation, pranayama (breathwork) and a powerful vinyasa class • A quick dive into mantra and how to use your mala beads as tools of prayer • Techniques on developing and maintaining a personal practice • Essential elements of a morning ritual; saving graces for evening ritual • The power of crystals to heal and ground • Intro to journaling and how to align with lunar cycles • Yoga Nidra to close the workshop The Yoga of Mysticism & Ritual Dana Damara & Mark Morford Saturday, December 1 12-6 pm Yoga Tree Potrero, 1500 16th St. (415) 655-3936 $108 This course qualifies for credit in the Yoga Tree Continuing Education Program.
