Empowering Self, Uniting Community

WELCOME TO

PURUSHA YOGA

Purusha Yoga is a community focused, heart centered teaching studio located in San Francisco’s Outer Richmond District. We offer a full schedule of daily classes led by a diverse group of experienced, inspired teachers who are not only interested in your safety and fitness, but in your holistic wellbeing. We use the classic 8 limb practices and philosophies of Hatha and Raja Yoga to open the mind, balance energy, move, inspire, and spark the imagination. By providing a variety of personalized services, movement, dance and fitness classes, we take the student beyond yoga and into holistic wellness and health. We are passionate about being of service to our community and offer free / donation-based yoga classes to low income, at risk and under served populations through our non-profit organization, the Purusha Seva Project.
