It was through her ballet classes at the University of Iowa that Sarah became aware of the therapeutic and transcending quality of movement. Shortly after undergoing knee surgery she began practicing yoga as a means of strengthening her whole body in a balanced manner. Through her practice Sarah also discovered a love of yoga philosophy. She enrolled in her teachers' training program as a route to enrich her own understanding of the practice and to share the transformative power of yoga and received her 500-hour yoga teacher certification in ISHTA Yoga (Integrated Sciences of Hatha, Tantra and Ayurveda) through Yoga Works. Her classes are a balance between the physical and philosophical aspects of yoga with emphasis on alignment. She encourages her students to work hard with a light-hearted approach. Sarah works at the Late Show with David Letterman where she also teaches yoga to the staff. She’s on the faculty of STEPS on Broadway, and teaches yoga at the Baryshnikov Arts Center, Yoga Works and The ISHTA Yoga Studio.
