In this weekend workshop, we’ll explore yoga as a practice of devotion. Bhakti yoga is the practice of devotion. We can infuse every aspect of our practice with this sense of devotion—from mantra to asana, mudra, meditation to pranayama. Beyond this, devotion can infuse all of the moments of our lives. In this way, our practice helps us clarify our intentions, focus our attention, and infuse our lives with a sense of purpose and compassion.
Each session begins with a comprehensive practice that includes meditation, pranayama, asana, and chanting. Afternoons are a dive into the heart of what it means to embody yoga. With practice as our starting point, we’ll access the body’s innate intelligence. In community, we’ll put devotion into practice to live our values and focus our attention in a world of chaos.
This intensive is open to yoga practitioners and teachers alike.

Janet’s studentship began at 17 under the meditation teachings of Prem Rawat. His reverence for simplicity and finding joy in the rise and fall of life live on in her practice and teaching today. In 1996, she traveled to India, the birthplace of her grandfather, and became dedicated to the path of yoga. Janet blends the alchemy of her own practice with decades of studentship. She aspires not to teach but to allow the practice to emanate from her, letting awareness blend with movement and breath. Based in Bali and San Francisco, she leads immersions, retreats, workshops and more.
