Ganja Yoga

Ganja Yoga promotes wellness, embodiment and relaxation. We consider mindfulness, yoga and plant medicines as essential components of an integrated, healthy lifestyle. We foster community connection as an essential part of the practice by creating safe spaces to explore, discover, normalize and reduce stigma around the use of plant medicines.

The practice is a blend of mindfulness, yoga, cannabis, relaxing vibes, embodied spirituality and a touch of latino spice in a community setting. No prior yoga or cannabis experience is required to enjoy Ganja Yoga. Smoking is optional. Enhance at your choice or not at all. Beginner friendly. This is a 21+ BYOW (Bring your own Weed) class.

Stay after class for tea, light snacks and community sharing.

FAQ

  • Yes, this is a BYOW (Bring your own Weed) class. We do not provide or sell cannabis. Also consider that in the state of California state it is legal to share among consenting adults (and there is usually plenty to go around!).

  • This is an all-levels gentle slow flow yoga class, oriented towards mindful awareness and relaxation. Javiera teaches yoga from a therapeutic and trauma-informed perspective. If you are new to yoga, we invite you to take it slow and be mindful of your body, listen to your body . There might be discomfort at times yet there should be no pain, take a step back if you need. If you have any concerns please reach out before class.

  • First-timers to Ganja Yoga or yoga in general might want to ‘start low, go slow’. You can start with a tinny toke, consume less cannabis than you usually do, see how you feel with that. You can always consume a little more later or in your next class! Some people with higher tolerance levels might smoke more. Everyone’s relationship to cannabis is different. Be mindful of your body, intention and usage.

  • Before class starts, setup your space. Make it cozy and comfortable making sure you have everything that you need. Lower the lights, invite textures and smells if you like that.
