Testimonials
My pain has been greatly reduced over the year I’ve been working Sara. Of course, I do my part and perform all the stretches and exercises she has given me, and continue to do yoga classes with her. I consider Sara a true partner in my health and well-being.
Sara is a true listener and communicator. She explains what she thinks is causing the pain I feel, and has created an exercise routine for me based on my needs. She works with me to tailor the stretches and exercises based on whether or not I’m deriving benefit from them.
Sara is a well thought out yoga therapist who not only took my body into account when helping me, she taught me how to hold space for the uncomfortable periods my body went through. It was very easy to have conversations with Sara around the process of my yoga practice as a whole experience physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
To connect, ground, and simply be with the body is what I took as her specialty. Sara is an incredible guide who equally listens and is helpful. I highly recommend her for yoga therapy.
