From an early age, physical movement and mental discipline were imprinted on Sara. With a background in gymnastics and dance, she experienced first-hand the importance of the energetic mind-body-breath connection. This path ultimately led Sara to yoga and her daily practice. She is now living out her swadharma-discovering her unique role in this life. Sara’s teachings pull strongly from the Ashtanga tradition, while interjecting dynamic free-flowing sequences of Bhakti yoga. Her style is athletic & challenging, yet accessible for all levels. She sequences her classes with an emphasis on creativity, breath and freedom, while maintaining ease and integrity within the poses. Sara sees, recognizes and honors the unique individuality of each of her students and seeks to empower and uplift each being as they step on to the mat. Sara is a passionate lover of life and all things yoga. When she is not practicing or teaching, you can find her smiling, laughing and enjoying every moment to its fullest! She bows humbly in service to this practice.

Yogini, Healer, and Gypsy SOUL. I recently moved hOMe to Reno after a decade in Southern California. I believe that blending love with connection creates magic. Life has taken me on a journey of self discovery and cultivated a desire to deepen my knowledge about the Shakti power. I love to travel and get lost in foreign countries. Although, I was introduced to yoga in 2002, my yoga journey didn’t begin until 2009 while I was living in Los Angeles. Soon after a life renewing adventure in Bali, I decided to deepen my practice and I obtained my 500RYT Yoga Alliance certification through Cloud Nine Yoga in Hawaii. With my background in dance, I combine fluidity, grounding, and deep connection into my classes. Being a Certified Massage Therapist, I believe that human touch and connection is one of the most magical experiences that can ignite the soul. It is my hope that I can form authentic connections with fellow Yogis as we learn from each other in this gift of life.

Having always been passionate about wellbeing on every level, I sought life practices that would support a healthy mind, body and soul. I discovered that through a consistent and committed Yoga practice I could heal and transcend challenges and setbacks in life. By embracing the philosophy and soulful teachings of Yoga I learned to experience and express those thoughts and feelings through the physical postures. In my group and private classes, I create the space and offer the instruction for students to explore and express what they learn through their own Yoga practice. I guide them in developing better body awareness and safe postural alignment as well as in improving their strength and mobility. In addition, students can experience an introspective awareness and inner growth through healing chants, profound breathing exercises and a philosophical focus. My teaching style offers a blend of Hatha, Vinyasa and Bhakti styles of Yoga along with a heavy focus on postural alignment. I’ve been teaching Yoga since 2012 and have completed 290 hours of Registered Yoga Teacher Trainings. I’ve earned a B.S. degree in Health and Human Science and am a Certified Holistic Health Coach as well as a Certified Reiki Practitioner.
