Sound Bath & Dinner (Fridays 7:00pm)
Teacher: Yvonne
Join the next Friday night yoga nidra and sound bath (followed by soothing golden milk drink!) at Bhakti SF. A relaxing end to your week, with healing sounds lead by certified yoga teacher at Google, Yvonne Wong.
A deeply immersive, meditative experience accompanied by soothing vibrations from crystal and Nepalese singing bowls, harmonium, and gentle vocal tones. This soulful journey uses sound as a healing language—allowing resonance to flow through you, soften energetic blocks, and reconnect you with inner stillness. No effort is required; simply lie back, receive, and let the harmonics support renewal, clarity, and a sense of sacred calm.
This is a great event to explore spiritual healing practices and meet new people. Enjoy a delicious dinner with other students after the class.
All levels are welcome. All equipment provided.

Sunday Yoga (9:30am - 10:30am)
Teacher: Monika Benkovic
Nada Yoga is the yoga of sound and vibration. Rooted in ancient yogic philosophy, this practice guides us from ahata nada (outer, audible sound) toward anahata nada (inner, subtle sound), gently drawing awareness inward to connect with our true nature. This 60-minute experience is grounding, meditative, and deeply nourishing for the nervous system. We begin by settling into the body through somatic techniques and gentle, mindful asana, allowing tension to unwind and awareness to deepen. Breathwork and pranayama help regulate the nervous system and open subtle channels, followed by chanting or vocal toning to awaken inner resonance. From here, you’ll be guided into meditation and a receptive sound journey featuring crystal singing bowls, chimes, gong, tuning forks, and spacious moments of silence—inviting rest, integration, and inner listening.
No prior experience is necessary. This class is open to all bodies and all levels, offering a space to slow down, tune in, and remember the wisdom within.

Teacher: John
A balanced and accessible vinyasa practice inspired by the traditional Ashtanga method. Class begins with a short pranayama-based meditation to cultivate breath awareness and internal focus, followed by a flowing sequence that emphasizes mindful movement, proper form, and the connection between breath and body.
Suitable for students of all levels, with options to modify and deepen the practice according to individual needs.
About John:
John began practicing Ashtanga in the
'90's and was quickly taken with the depth, challenge, and continuously evolving nature of it. Traditional Ashtanga is the root vinyasa practice. Its design offers an experience of balance and counterbalance, a pranayama practice in motion and, at its essence, a moving meditation. It is truly a practice of releasing Samskara: unwinding the conditioned patterns of movement, thought, emotion, and spirit that we often find ourselves bound in.
John is authorized by the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute of Mysore, India where he has made 5 extended trips over the years. He has been teaching consistently since 1995 and continues to study many forms of yoga, philosophy, and the movement and understanding of the physical body. The gift of teaching for John is supporting each person's experience of practice, and facilitating the depth, transformation, and healing power that yoga has to offer.

Bhakti Breakfast
Start your Wednesday with inspiration, community, and nourishing food/prasadam.
The morning begins with an open discussion on the Srimad Bhagavatam, one of the world's most revered wisdom texts.

Whether you're brand new to Bhakti or have been practicing for years, everyone is invited to listen, ask questions, and participate at their own comfort level.
Following the class, stay for Guru Puja, a traditional ceremony of gratitude honoring the teachers who have preserved this ancient wisdom through generations.
We'll then gather for a delicious prasadam breakfast—a wholesome vegetarian meal prepared with love and offered in devotion before being shared in community.

I had a beautiful experience.
The outdoor yoga class by Vrinda Priti was amazing and a reminder to get back into my practice. I had the opportunity to do some seva which made my soul feel cleansed.
Lastly I was grateful to be in the association of such beautiful, inspiring and gentle souls - Lijie·

Bhakti SF has been a regular part of my life for the past year, and it was so special to attend the first event in the newly opened downstairs space with HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj. The space looks beautiful and feels so peaceful and devotional. The kirtan, lecture, and overall atmosphere made the entire program truly uplifting.
