accessible yoga with sarah
Hi, my name’s Sarah! My pronouns are they/she and I’m currently based in
Cheltenham (UK) where I live with my partner. I’ve been practicing yoga for just
over 6 years and I immediately fell in love with the practice. Whether it was
the physical benefits from my asana (posture) practice, or the mental benefits
from pranayama (breath work) and meditation, yoga changed my life (I realise how
incredibly cheesy and cliché that sounds, but it’s true!)I completed my 200 hour
Yoga Teacher Training in 2019 – the experience was incredible and it completely
changed my personal practice and influenced the practices I want to share. My
goal is to teach yoga which is accessible for everybody – regardless of ability,
age, gender, or background. I want to create classes & workshops that are gender
neutral, suitable for people who are neurodiverse, accessible for all physical
abilities and free of diet culture. As well as my 200 hour training, I’ve also
completed Accessible Yoga training and my 85 hour Pregnancy and Post-Natal Yoga
Teacher Training. I’m now also in the process of working through my 300 hour
Yoga Teacher Training. You can find out more about that on my Qualifications &
Development page. Hi, I’m Sarah (they/she). I want to improve people’s lives by
sharing the benefits of yoga – whether that’s by allowing rest, reducing stress
or through movement. I offer accessible yoga classes, including mat-based yoga,
chair yoga, bed yoga, pregnancy yoga, and restorative yoga – to enable anyone to
practice yoga. My style of teaching is centred around giving you choice and
autonomy in your practice. I’ll guide you through a sequence but give you a
variety of options so you can find what feels right for your body. A lot of
people think that yoga is what you see on social media: flexibility, handstands
on beaches and contorting yourself into pretzel shapes, but it’s not! It’s about
finding stillness in your mind and connecting with your body and breath. In an
age where everything feels like it’s go-go-go, I genuinely believe that everyone
deserves to find some rest and stillness. If you, or someone you know, is
