The Yoga Loft, San Francisco
The Yoga Loft was founded in 2002 by Jane House and Meg Whitbread with an intention to create a home for “The Yoga of Embodiment” in the heart of San Francisco. Over the years, The Yoga Loft has grown into one of California’s most beloved yoga schools. “The Loft” has become a home-base for the city’s most authentic teachers. It is a place where evolutionary relationships are formed and every time you walk up the stairs, you are bound hear stunning amounts of laughter.

Recipe for Force

I am convinced that if we could squeeze the original Star Wars trilogy between the palms of our hands, we would be left with a really good, really pure Hatha Yoga practice. Remember this dialogue between young Luke Skywalker and his teacher Obe-Wan Kenobi?

Obe-Wan: Remember, Luke..a Jedi can feel the force flowing through him.
Luke: You mean it controls your actions?
Obe: Partially. But it also obeys your commands……Try it again, Luke. This time let go of your conscious self and go on instinct. Shut your eyes. Your eyes can deceive you. Don’t trust them……
Luke, Stretch out with your feelings!
(Luke trusts. He does.)
Obe: Good! You’ve taken your first step into a larger world.
