Sarah is a 500-hr RYT Yoga Alliance certified teacher and freelance graphic designer living in Austin, TX. Besides yoga, world travel, food, design, music and nature feed my soul. I am student and teacher of yoga because I am passionate about sharing the practice and inspiring body awareness with others.

I attended my first yoga class because I needed an escape from living a stressful life in the bustling New York City. I now practice and teach yoga not to escape, but to become more and more present and grateful each day. I have always enjoyed exploring creative pathways in this life and have found yoga to be increasingly useful as an accessible path to stress relief, physical strength and a way to become more in tune with the mind/body connection. My relationship with yoga grows everyday and I am grateful this practice has become a significant part of my daily life. My desire to dig deeper into my own relationship with yoga led me to complete my 200-hour RYT training through Yoga Yoga in 2016 and later went on to complete my 300-hour RYT training with Wanderlust Yoga in 2018. I’ve had the honor of working with a variety of clients and companies including Bumble and Outdoor Voices.

My vinyasa flow classes are powerful, playful, and challenge students to go within and embrace whatever shows up in each moment. As a teacher, it is my intention that students leave my class feeling empowered, connected, and INSPIRED. My training is heavily alignment-based and my teaching style incorporates mindful body positioning with breath-based flow. I invite students to tune into their own intuition, the true and highest teacher in each of us.

I hope to share this practice with you!
