And damn... does it feel good finding my way back.
Honestly, I was a little nervous about the studio where I grew my teaching career and my own practice moving.The YAKIMA’S ORIGINAL YOGA STUDIO was a space that held so many chapters of my life—growth, loss, love, breakthroughs, friendships, and so many (humbnling) moments that shaped who I am.
Walking into a new building felt a little like closing a chapter I wasn’t quite ready to say goodbye to.
But after my very first practice in the new space... it felt like home immediately.
Not because the walls were the same.
Not because the lighting or the paint looked familiar.
In fact, almost everything had changed.
It felt like home because the practice was still there.
The community was still there.
And it reminded me of something I’ve been learning over and over again:
Life has a way of pulling us away from ourselves.
Yoga gives us a practice for finding our way back.
Maybe that’s why this move felt so symbolic to me.
Home was never the building. Home was what happened every time I stepped onto my mat.
It’s the place where I remember my strength.
Where I learn to trust my body. Where I return to myself—again and again.
And maybe that’s the greatest gift this practice has given me.
Not that life stops changing...
But that no matter what changes around me, I know where to come home.

Today was sweaty, humbling, and exactly what I needed. 🤍
And just a cherry on top to practice with & get hugs from some of my favorite humans. Suzanne Carney Keely Upton Mariah 🥰

If it weren’t for yoga, I wouldn’t know my own strength, or trust in my body to get me through the things that I have been through.

For those of you who are new here—welcome. 🤍
I’m Sara, and yoga has been part of my life for years. It’s taken me on adventures, introduced me to incredible people, and shaped the way I move through the world.
But more recently, it became something even deeper.
Going through one of the hardest seasons of my life, yoga wasn’t about performing poses or becoming more flexible. It became the practice that helped me reconnect with my body, rebuild trust, and move forward one breath at a time.
That experience changed the way I teach.
Around here, yoga isn’t about perfection.
It’s about building a relationship with yourself that is steady enough to carry you through every season life brings.
That’s the heart behind my online platform and every class I create.
I believe yoga is more than movement.
It’s a practice of returning to yourself.

If you’re the woman who’s spent years taking care of everyone else...
Who’s forgotten what it feels like to feel at home in your own body...
Who’s ready to move from surviving into rebuilding...
I’m so glad you found your way here.
Welcome. 🌿

I often tell my students that the goal isn’t to become better at yoga—it’s to feel better in your body.

That’s the heart behind Core Connection Yoga.

This class is designed to help you reconnect with your body through intentional movement, breath, and deep core awareness. Each class blends gentle yoga, breathwork, meditation, and functional movement to support nervous system regulation while building strength that carries into everyday life.
Whether you’re returning to movement postpartum, easing back after time away, or simply looking for a practice that feels supportive rather than overwhelming, this class was created to meet you where you are.

One of the reasons I’m especially excited to offer this class at Vitality Physical Therapy is because it reflects something I’ve believed for years: healing and strength aren’t separate journeys—they grow together.

✨ Tuesdays | 8:00–9:00 AM
✨ Wednesdays | 5:45–6:45 PM
✨ Limited to 8 participants

Not much of a fan of gym selfies … but this day was a little different, so I’ll share it.

This particular day & workout, was the same workout I had just started before my stint in the hospital 5 months ago. Coming out of the hospital had me feeling the absolutely weakest I have ever felt in my life.

This workout though last week, I crushed it.

Moved up in weight, felt friggin’ strong AF (considering).
Even had the weighted vest on the stepper, prepping for a decent backpack trip w/ the kids
Here soon.

At moments, I sat with my eyes closed, catching my breath with tears welling of gratitude & relief of what my body is capable of.
That it didn’t give up on me. Here at the gym or then at the hospital. Being able to rebuild my strength with patience and share this journey has been a total blessing.

Everyday is a blessing.
Every movement.
Every breath.
Every emotion.

For those that have been here, I am grateful for you. You encouragement and thoughtful words. Hugs when I get to see you person. Those that are fairly new, welcome. I am so happy you’re here and we can share some energy together no@matter what season of life you may be in.
Count your blessings friends, they are abundant. ✌🏼
