A yoga teacher who wants to incorporate more arm balances into your classes and are looking for tips, guidance, and step-by-step progressions to teach confidently?
Afraid of falling on your face in Crow Pose?
Feeling stuck in your practice?
When I was a younger student, I remember being awestruck by arm balances, thinking, "How is that even possible?"
Bright-eyed bushy-haired, I was inspired and motivated to learn, but I wasn't sure where to begin in breaking down the more advanced postures. I needed strength, direction, and patience. I actively sought out experienced teachers who could help me in developing my practice further. I asked questions.
I fell on my face quite a few times, but I never stopped learning.
I became a teacher in 2011 and have loved sharing my passion for yoga with people from around the world. I am always so excited when my students experience a breakthrough moment in their practice.

I am not the type to really stay dedicated to any workout regiments... so when I can honestly say that this program both kept my attention and made me excited about working out- it’s a small miracle for me.
I’ve been looking online for awhile for an instructor who teaches these arm balances... I hadn’t been able to find any that really break it down for me to learn from home. The videos were waiter far too advanced, or way too simple. Sarah’s program is the perfect balance between the two. I feel challenged, yet I am actually learning to do these poses and I feel so accomplished.
One of the other many reasons I truly enjoyed this program is because I loved the fact that I can go at my own pace , meaning I was able to rewind and pause as many times as necessary. I was also able to replay the video as many times as I liked - which meant I was able to really hone in on the moves I was trying to master.
Sarah is so personable and so down to earth, that I felt it was easy to go to her with any questions that I had. She responds quickly and is the greatest yoga instructor I’ve ever had the chance to work with.
