Sara is classically trained in Hatha Yoga.  After casually practicing for ten years, she completed her 200 hour level training program in 2008 with friend, mentor and instructor Julia Shields.  During the past two years of teaching in both Burnaby and Maple Ridge, she has grown in both appreciation and knowledge, from the time spent with other Vancouver instructors and classmates, borrowing inspiration from her Hatha, Anusara, and Vijnana Yoga instructors.  Sara teaches with an energetic and playful approach, balancing foundations of yoga with her inner awareness and breath, and ever changing knowledge of self.
She holds a B.A. in Fine Art, with a major in photography.  She worked for 10 years in the Vancouver Film community, painting costumes and sets, before starting her family in 2006.  She holds an up to date First Aid certificate and is a member of Yoga B.C.  Sara attends yoga workshops regularly to inspire and enhance her practice.  Sara’s husband and two young children continue to inspire her to learn patience, truthfulness, and compassion.  She loves to garden and to cook with fresh local and organic ingredients.
