I’m glad you’re here.

I’m joelle, 童怡, an RYT-200 yoga teacher in San Francisco, California. I began to walk the path of dharma and yoga in 2008. With devotion, I meditated, devoured dharma books, and practiced wholeheartedly with my sangha, my spritual community. But twists and turns, and obfuscations stopped me blindly in my tracks. The road was not straight, and I got lost countless times.

Offerings

Public yoga class

Come home to yourself through breath, embodiment, and mindfulness. Each class is designed to guide you towards an innate sense of peace and groundedness.

Step into the sacred pause. Through mindful movement and guided meditation rooted in the Buddha dharma, I invite retreatants to journey between stillness and flow with deep abiding awareness.

Corporate wellness

I craft movement and meditation experiences to meet your team where they are—cultivating focus, resilience, and a sense of balance that extends beyond the office walls.

Slow Flow with Meditation & Dinner

“Calming and relaxing, with a delicious dinner afterwards! There was a nice ramp-up and short meditation to start, leading up to the slow flow. Joelle is a kind, attentive, and wonderful instructor who cares about the experience of her students.”

What students are saying

Class Pass reviews

Hatha Yoga & Dinner

“Amazing experience with Joelle (subbing for usual instructor), very fluid and calming vinyasa flow with some challenges and a relaxing cooldown. Joelle was a pleasure to follow! Lovely and delicious community vegan dinner afterwards (Indian dishes). A very special space!”

Mindful Vinyasa Flow & Dinner

“Amazing class with Joelle! I came back a second time for instructor’s vinyasa flow - it’s both invigorating as well as challenging. Joelle demonstrated the poses too during the session, which seems helpful for those newer to yoga. Loved the delicious vegan dinner afterwards too!”
