Tirza Dawn Naramore is a yogi, mother, artist, ceremonialist and lover of life. She has been practicing and teaching yoga and meditation for 30 years and offers yoga retreats and trainings that center on optimum health, self realization and self love. Her teachers are from many yoga and tantric traditions, but her primary lineages are Iyengar and Kali Ray.
Tirza is deeply devoted to community building and is honored to have created a number of community supported non profits including Mystic Family Circus and The AWAKEN Project, which serves families with children on the autism spectrum. Tirza is proud to be the mother of 3 wild teenagers, including her incredible son who is diagnosed with autism.
Tirza’s spirituality is one of many influences and teachings. Beginning with a Christian up-bringing and being raised on a Christian commune in her early childhood, she later expanded into more earth-based ways. While in her 20’s Tirza was adopted into the Native American Church, where she learned from her relatives a way of living the “Beauty Way.”
During the 1990’s and early 2000’s, Tirza lived in San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley, directing the Mystic Family Circus, which was a performance group dedicated to cultural awareness and bridge building. She worked with Cirque du Soleil, Burning Man, Reclaiming, Contraband, CELLspace and other Bay Area art collectives and non profits to provide conscious entertainment and “prayerformances” for the betterment of humankind and the planet.
In 2012, Tirza helped to found the Buckeye Gathering, an ancestral skills gathering in Northern California which draws teachers and students of all ages to learn ancestral ways of tending the earth and survival skills.
Tirza Dawn was the founder of yoga programming and the Ayurvedic Yoga Teacher Trainings at the dhyana Center of Ayurveda in Sebastopol, California, which operated a community center of healing and education from 2010 to 2020.
