"Life is a gift, but it's not always easy to negotiate the twists, turns and 'curve balls' that it throws at us. Yoga on the mat, trains us to face the real yoga ... everyday life! Challenges on our mat build a strong, flexible body, we learn to breath through poses and create a positive mindset. These valuable skills set us up to live everyday life with more ease and joy. Anusara Yoga teaches us how to 'Flow with Grace' in life and celebrate every breath." Sarah Experienced Certified Anusara Yoga Teacher E-RYT500, RPYT, Senior Yoga Teacher |

Andrea Galkova, Singapore

"Sarah is a very thoughtful and caring teacher, always professional and dedicated to her students. Sarah was amazing following my diagnosis with breast cancer and was such a physical and mental support for me during and after the treatment.
Her classes are well prepared and fun, and Sarah takes the time to provide detailed explanations of all positions. Sarah’s warm personality created a real sense of community in her classes and I’m still in touch with a number of other women from her classes even though Sarah has now moved back to the UK. I will always be very thankful for Sarah coming into my life and have the fondest memories of my time with her at the start of my yoga journey." |

"Sarah brings lightness and humour to all her classes. She is both spiritual and deeply rooted in family & daily life - a blend that appeals to me deeply. Her intelligent, specific instructions make me feel entirely safe and supported, and no two classes are the same, so the practice is kept fresh and interesting. To add to the appeal, challenges are thrown in to suit every level of yogi. I truly can't recommend Sarah's classes highly enough!"

"I had practiced many styles of yoga when I first met Sarah. I started attending her classes and the fun, encouraging and highly passionate way Sarah teaches very soon got my attention. I started to learn about the Anusara® alignment principles, hear Sarah's beautifully told stories and feel really great during and particularly after class. Each class can be very different, challenge you in different ways but I always feel each one has been special and inspiring.
Anusara with Sarah touched me so much that I was soon hooked and wanting to discover more, so I decided to take the plunge and signed up for Sarah's Teacher Training ... and I am now very proud to be an Anusara® Elements Teacher!" |
Jane Walker, West Clandon, UK

"I thoroughly enjoy yoga with Sarah because she makes it fun! Each session is varied with a theme and Sarah obviously puts a lot of work into her planning, as her Anusara® yoga blends her gentle spirituality with the physical poses.
Sarah's extensive knowledge of the alignment of the body has helped me to adapt many poses to protect my back and knees, which are vulnerable. I highly recommend her classes and Day Retreats too!" |
What is Anusara Yoga?
Anusara is a branch of Hatha yoga that uniquely integrates deep spiritual teachings and precise principles of alignment into the practice. At the heart of Anusara Yoga are its life-affirming principles of embracing life ups and downs, not running from it. As such, Anusara Yoga becomes an alignment guide for our life, on and off the mat. Anusara Yoga provides students with a solid foundation in the ancient non-dual philosophy of yoga.
Anusara is also a community of students and teachers who are deeply connected to the heart of yoga. Its emphasis on the embodiment of Grace and its profound philosophical teachings are designed to open the practitioner’s heart to life’s possibilities, creating vibrancy of body, mind and spirit.
What makes Anusara Yoga special?
Anusara Yoga is alignment based yoga. It promotes creative freedom and individuality while teaching within a precise methodology called the Universal Principles of Alignment™. These alignment principles bring attention to the sacredness of the physical body. Students learn how to properly align the body as well as develop strength, vitality and a clearer understanding of how the body works in order to master life’s challenges.
Anusara Yoga also inspires through life-affirming themes. Anusara teachers weave an inspirational heart theme into each class, which helps students connect the physical practice with a deep feeling of self-honouring, safety, community, devotion and love. Themes are often rooted in deep spiritual principles that are expressed throughout each class, making the practice both a joyful and an inspirational experience.
What does an Anusara Yoga class look like?
Each class utilizes a heart theme and supportive physical alignment that accentuates its expression through the poses. This makes the classes fluid, safe and fun. Anusara teachers come from diverse backgrounds and infuse their insights, personal life experiences and life journeys into their classes making them more personal and relevant.
Classes begin with an introduction of the heart theme for the class and a centering alignment that often includes chanting of “OM” and/or the Anusara Invocation. The teacher then guides the students through a warm-up and then progressive sequences of poses. An emphasis is placed on the class theme through the physical and artistic expression of the poses. Classes take the students deep into the feeling sensations of each pose and sequence, so as to integrate body-mind with heart and spirit. Once a peak pose is reached the class winds down into an extended rest period and meditation. Students leave class refreshed, challenged and inspired.
