What a blessing to find your class! Your knowledge of the poses and how you intuitively understand the anotomical implications of them is very reassuring. But it's your playful guidance and direction that captures the joyful exhilaration and purposeful focus that is yoga. I enthusiastically look forward to my next class with you.

I am one of Sarah's yoga teachers. I worked with her for approximately two years before she decided to continue her training to become a yoga teacher herself. I found Sarah to be a serious student and a joy to work with. She worked very hard on her own improvement, all the while being kindly supportive of others. She came to class with a good level of physical fitness and body awareness, which continued to improve during her studies. She was mentally disciplined as well, always working to make the most of each moment in asana practice or meditation.
I am very confident that Sarah carries her dedication to her personal practice, her love of yoga philosophy, and her encouraging spirit in the classes she now teaches. Namaste. ~Dianna P. Seattle
Sarah's comprehension of anatomy and spirit reveals a personal integrity for the sacred work of yoga. This, combined with a keen sense of the need for discipline & conviction as well as innate empathy, equate to a teaching style that empowers while keeping you rooted firmly within your own being.

Sarah's yoga classes have improved my balance, increased my flexibility and strengthened me physically and spiritually. After laying there exhausted yet elated from the workout, she inspires me with youthful wisdom.
After class, I feel a soulful energy that reminds I am one with humanity and our natural world.

Sarah makes an effort to know each of her students and brings enough personal attention and optional flourishes into each group session to make it feel individually tailored to everyone in the class regardless of ability. ~Ryan B. Seattle
As a newcomer to yoga and man in my 40s, I was uncertain how I would fare in a class at Studio on Main. I’m pleased to say that Anna, Sarah, and my fellow students have been very welcoming. And my posture and overall sense of well being are definitely improving, which is just what I need because of long hours sitting at a computer each day.

Sarah is a supportive and open teacher who fosters strength and kindness within our practice. Her energy and patience is both grounding and exciting. ~ Emma K. Seattle
Yoga with Sarah has been an amazing experience for me. I have a gymnastic background but had been unable to do any sort of back bending or inversions for years. I started in Sarah's class about one year ago and can now safely do handstands, headstands, backbending and feel faboulous. I can't believe how much it has helped my biking and skiing and overall feeling of well being. I love it and I can't wait to go every week!

Sarah creates a strong personal connection in class, her nurturing spirit guided my body through difficult spaces. She has a perceptive eye and easily identified areas of struggle like my aching hammies! Sarah teaches balanced yoga that delights dancers and contortionists as well as twisted muscled Landscapers like me.

Sarah's yoga class is the one place I can go where I know, when I leave, I will feel totally transformed in body, mind, and spirit! I began with Sarah 4 months ago, and can honestly say that I thought I'd never be my "normal", flexible, functioning self again. But yikes! After just a few weeks, I've gotten it all back, not just for yoga, but in daily life! All the activities I do have been enhanced by Sarah's yoga class. Sarah has a way of making yoga so much fun, interesting, practical, spiritual, and very personal. It's hard to describe how magical the class is, but I think when you have a passion for teaching and the knowledge and skills to both understand and work with people, you create a fabulous atmosphere for learning and growing-and Sarah does just that! It's the best!
