We offer programming that meets the needs of today including Anti-Racism and Embodied DEI (Diversity Equity & Inclusion) support, a Burnout Toolkit, Wellness Coaching, Office Yoga, Meditation and more.

Satori has partnered with leaders in the field to help dismantle systems of oppression from the inside out.

Hi! I'm Andrea Stern, a Black woman, Mama, and entrepreneur who began Satori in 2004 as an oasis for urban professionals. Our newly expanded Wellness in the Workplace offerings offer comprehensive services to businesses of all sizes (offerings available both in-person and digitally at this time).

We are here to support you in addressing some of the biggest challenges your people face today - including DEI at the workplace, and how to prevent burnout (as well as understanding how to address it when it arises), and improving the overall health of your culture and your business.

Satori Yoga Studio has been partnering with companies for nearly two decades to create yoga programs that bring the benefits of movement, meditation and mindfulness to your employees where they are - at home or in the office.

Our mission over the last nearly two decades has not changed: we hold space for all practitioners regardless of age, race, gender, physical ability, financial means or orientation of any type.

We believe that the benefits of a conscientious practice of yoga, wellness or other methodologies that provide balance, strength and confidence are life-changing.

In fact, we even named our business after it - “Satori” is translated as an opportunity to look within, refocus, and regain a sometimes lost sense of perspective.

4worldlovers: Throughout 2020, we were missing a space to practice in, to breathe in. HAUM is authentically San Francisco and born out of the ashes of a really tough year. We are proud to be an LGBTQ+ owned and operated business bringing yoga to the Mission, Haight-Ashbury, and beyond.

4worldlovers: Yoga du Soleil (‘of the Sun’): Maison (‘House’) of Healing Arts is a place for people to gather, share, grow, play, learn, heal, and create, located in the heart of San Francisco. It is a small studio with big dreams, full of shri (‘beauty, auspiciousness’) and shakti (‘creative power’).

Yoga du Soleil is dedicated to the principle that “The Healing Arts” like all the Arts, are not a product, but a way of life. To achieve Art you must be able to bring yourself fully into the present moment with an open heart. It is a fundamental principle of Yoga du Soleil that art heals. Whether it is the Art of Yoga or the Art of Song, Art teaches us to come into relationship with what we don’t understand, to be comfortable with not knowing. To be an artist is to include yourself in the dance of life - you create and you change. Art exists at the midpoint of joy and sorrow, love and hate, black and white. To balance seemingly unintegratable opposites is to create Art and to heal. Light and shadow. Form and emptiness. We dance. We balance. We wake up. We create catharsis. We find compassion.

B.K.S. Iyengar, in “The Art of Yoga”, wrote, “...the yogi refines his body and blends the subtle forces of this instrument with reverential devotion and uninterrupted practice as an offering to the divine. He has no canvas, brush, paints, stones, hammer or chisel, yet he chisels his own body with the asanas, develops the senses by ethics, stores energy through breath, and with superb and supreme beauty tones the consciousness of the inner cosmic rays, or with the radiant light of his soul. He and his abode become one and henceforth the body becomes his heaven on earth.”

Yoga du Soleil will offer yoga workshops with guest teachers, music concerts (Indian, jazz, world music), showing of independent movies, art exhibits, and other body/mind workshops. We welcome ideas and suggestions.

You are invited! Yoga du Soleil, Maison of Healing Arts, is presenting the first in a series of movie nights. Attendance is free. RSVP is required by email as space will be limited. The event will happen...

Iyengar Yoga is universally respected, practiced worldwide and credited by multitudes as life-transforming, but because its founder B. K. S. Iyengar is famously reclusive, little is known about the man who invented this powerful practice... until now! Thanks to exclusive, intimate access to this legendary yogi, Jake Clennell's documentary Iyengar: The Man, Yoga, The Student’s Journey is able to showcase the profound spirituality embedded in his practice, which has led religions around the world including Catholicism and Islam to incorporate Iyengar Yoga into their ritual observances. Best of all is the extraordinary time spent with Iyengar, himself, including in the studio where he rules alternately with an iron fist and a velvet touch while demonstrating feats of flexibility and discipline that would be extraordinary if carried out by an Olympic gymnast, let alone a man in his 90s. This documentary is required viewing for anyone with an interest in yoga, wellness, spirituality, or the connection of mind and body.
