WHAT I FOCUS ON
Services & Specialities
Sarah's therapeutic expertise is unparalleled. Rarely will you find a movement professional that can combine such in-depth anatomical knowledge with compassionate listening and strategic problem solving. You deserve to be heard and you deserve a practice responsive to all your complexity.
Yoga for Scoliosis
Sarah cut her teeth with the most complicated cases in Yoga Therapy: Scoliosis. With thousands of clinical hours mapping and improving curves, no one has a sharper eye for understanding the postural and movement complexity of scoliosis.
Sarah combines the best principles and practices from the approaches with the most radiographic evidence: the Schroth Method, Dr. Fishman's Method, with the Therapeutic Wisdom inherent in Alignment yoga. Read more about Sarah's approach here.

Yoga for Osteoporosis
Sarah is a certified Yoga for Osteoporosis practitioner using Dr. Fishman's three series of poses to safely reverse bone loss, strengthen balance and improve posture.
Yoga for Hypermobile Students
Many clients don't know if they are hypermobile or not. A strange combination of feeling tight or stiff with getting injured easily, hypermobile folks are instinctively drawn to yoga's emphasis on stretching.
My approach to Yoga Therapy allows hypermobile students to stabilize their joints, add safety to pain-relieving stretches and build strength at a pace that is tolerable.
Yoga Therapy Privates
The gold standard. When group classes just don't cut it, nothing beats the one on one customization, skilled attention and freedom to relax like a private with Sarah.
Therapeutic Yoga Group Classes
A rare opportunity: a drop-in therapeutic group class to manage your condition or to recover from your injury. Practice safely; this yoga is adapted to meet your specific needs and readiness.
Therapeutic Yoga for Equestrians
As a professional dressage trainer for over a decade, horse owner and rider of 27 years, Sarah understands the demands on a rider's body.
As a Yoga Therapist, Sarah helps riders meet their unique athletic demands: a following seat, quiet hands and legs, a relaxed demeanor and confident leadership.
Yoga is perfect for addressing the practical, emotional and spiritual relationship between horse and rider. Private and group sessions available at your barn or at Heartwood.
