Several years ago, Sarah reluctantly stumbled her way into a yoga studio as a hopeful and rather desperate experiment to ease anxiety.

Having just walked away from four years of competing in NCAA athletics, she struggled to connect to a passion for movement outside of organized sports. The physical component of yoga brought Sarah to her first class. The mental and emotional freedom it continues to offer is what fuels her constant return. These early experiences cemented the belief that yoga offers an opportunity to create a tremendous amount of breathing room while also providing the reminder that we already possess the ingredients needed to heal.

In her life outside of the studio, Sarah is a psychotherapist working primarily with emerging adults and athletes. She also has several years of experience coaching soccer at the collegiate level. Integrating these two roles into her teaching approach, Sarah is passionate about creatively blending strength, athleticism, and mindfulness into a rhythmic flow that helps students heal, process, and attune to their bodies. She understands yoga as a collection of brief moments that, when gathered together, create a full, steady, and powerful flow.

Sarah places careful emphasis on a beginning meditation, sun salutations, a dynamic sequence, and continuous breath. She is an advocate for using yoga as a complementary practice to mental health treatment and self-actualization. Sarah teaches from a place that compassionately encourages her students to bring all the different parts of themselves into the experience--the strong and steady parts, the messy parts, the joyous and hopeful parts, and most importantly, the exiled parts. She trusts that with a structured, supportive practice, all individuals can take the teachings of yoga beyond the mat, bringing a sense of balance and connectedness to their way of being.
