Dana Damara Yoga

This is not your regular “studio” yoga

Over two decades of study on and off the mat, I offer up a class that is accessible to everyone. We are always beginning again, right where we are. I don’t teach a certain “style” of yoga, it’s a blend of anatomical alignment, sweaty movement, and Spiritual connection. Think boutique yoga designed just for you.

In person classes on the Bluff in Encinitas are small enough so you enjoy personalized attention and connection to your community. GOLD Meditation classes are traditional “Vinyasa” with a Bhakti twist and sound healing at the end for Savasana.

Online classes include Beginner Sessions, Mini-classes, Live-stream, and an archived library of over 400 classes you can take on your own time!

After years of teaching in San Francisco sharing this practice with over 75 people in each class, and being immersed in the teachings of life as a momma who raised two teens doing what I love … I bring my devotion to your mat so all you need to do is listen to your heart.

I promise you will be changed. Up-level your awareness and prepare for an unparalleled experience of movement, breath, meditation, and connection.

So many ways to practice with me

SPECIAL EVENTS

This guided breath-work meditation is a sample of my weekly on-line breath-work class.  Breathwork has been around since the beginning of time. It’s not a trend or a fad, it’s life giving, life sustaining, and life affirming.  Of all the modalities I use for health, clarity and overall well-being, breath-work is hands down, the best for moving stuck energy, excavating old emotions, and clearing the mind or mental blocks.   It is simple session that you can do every day, on your own.  If you'd like to practice this on a weekly basis, with a group online, we would love to have you!  You can join at danadamarayoga.com anytime.  Try it for (7) days for free, $40/40 days, fall in love and then stay with this forever.  

My hope is that you feel rejuvenated, clear, and full awake to this life.  Reach out with any questions, anytime. Om – Dana

Classes and trainings are filmed from my home studio, and like my in-person classes, are never planned, and always acknowledge real experiences as “the practice”. I never plan a sequence or a flow – but I do weave in a theme, pranayama, meditation and asana for ALL LEVELS of practitioners.

Truth be told, I am a Divine channel, so every class is different. I will offer up wisdom that flows through me and ask you to listen to your body so you can stay safe, while you drop in with me, and everyone else on the call.

If it’s one thing this practice has taught me is that life is uncertain. There are no guarantees.

So we practice.

There are so many ways to engage.

First –
start off with a week of unlimited practices for $33. Give me and our community a shot. Look at my calendar and pick a week when you can maximize your time.

Based on your needs, interests and desires – I offer many different passes to join us. You can choose which one works for you. But know this … no-one will be turned away for any reason. When there is a desire, there is a way.

So explore the calendar. Read about the offerings. Chose your pass. And join us. This practice will never let you down. And when you do feel down .. and your unsure of what’s next … I promise, it will be there to pick you up and make sense of it all.

I created this space to offer you

·       a place you can call home;

·       a space for you to connect;

·       a space for you to create ritual for yourself;

·       a place to heal.

We will start with the physical practice of yoga, because that seems like the best place to begin. Breathwork is essential. Meditation - the secret sauce.

Movement is the key, nature is our playground, breath is the fuel, and spirit awakens when we drop into all facets of ourselves with dedication and devotion.

That is the practice.

Join me.

So much love,

As someone who came to yoga due to an injury my path and journey with yoga has always been viewed as peripheral.  This training brought it into full focus and center.  Before this training my mind and body would swing from one end of the emotional spectrum to another and after. After, I was able to unfold behaviors and patterns that weren't serving me, and find more equanimity and grace in my daily life.  This experience will live with me forever.  I have already shared these gifts with others and have received nothing, but positive feedback.  If you have any interest in doing a yoga teacher training, doing it with Dana Damara will be transformative.
