Yoga Therapy is different.

In a typical yoga class, you may feel pressure to do exactly as the teacher says, to move at the pace of other students, and to look and act in certain ways. Yoga Therapy with Sarah Westbrook is different. Sarah meets you exactly where you are. Each session is all about YOU, what your body actually needs, at a pace you can manage.

Yoga Therapy is Individualized

You will be Heard.

There is no one like you. What hasn't worked for you is just as important as what has. Sarah is here to hear it all: the accidents, falls, injuries, losses, upsets and achievements. Your body has a story to tell.

You will be Seen.

Sarah has 29 years experience assessing movement & postural patterns. She will visually map out your spine, joint positions, and how your body arranges its limbs to move and find balance in this world.

No generic protocols.

Sarah has customized yoga practices for hundreds of students, from those unable to stand up or get down to the floor, to ultramarathon runners and every level of fitness in between. There is not "one" way; there is only YOUR way.

I am Your Guide.

While plans and progress are important, the body forces us to take its route; often that route winds. If you feel lost, Sarah will locate and reorient you. Sarah is the guide, committed to helping you find reliable, sustainable practices.

Yoga Therapy is Safe.

The goal is not to perform, but to discover.

In dialogue with Sarah, we will learn how to decipher when your body needs to stop, slow down or forge ahead.

Sarah uses props to expand, support, or at times, to limit mobility (power throughout a safe range of motion).
