About

Hi, I’m Sarah, a Conscious Life Coach, Yoga & Meditation Teacher, Reiki Energy Healer and Writer/Author. This is how I got here...

My Yoga journey began when I was 15 years old. I received a book about Yoga and became fascinated by the physical shapes (asanas) and the philosophy and psychology behind it. I started practising the postures and breathing techniques and by my early 20's, as a student and while backpacking in SE Asia/Australia, I was hooked on all things alternative, holistic and yogic.

After my travels my ambition to become a writer became priority so I put the spiritual path to one side and focused on launching my journalism career. I began freelancing for the nationals and women's glossy magazines with travel, health and lifestyle features and as I love to travel, a career reviewing and writing about beautiful places, luxury Spa hotels, ground-breaking holistic healing modalities and yoga holidays was literally my dream job.

Meantime, my intuition was vying for my attention - there was something else I needed to be doing.

I was getting big time into Yoga again and one rainy day in November '07 I decided to book a flight to India and enrol in an intensive Yoga Teacher Training course (YTTC) in a Kerala Ashram.

It was a life changing experience, and I haven't looked back since!

When I returned to Brighton, I received my Reiki Master attunements and my soul-biz, Karmiyoga, was born. I began teaching a few drop-in yoga classes per week, alongside my journalism work and in 2009 I was commissioned to write a Yoga book for Need2Know Books, it's called Everyday Yoga, the Essential Guide (it's available on Amazon, and various online sites).

I was hooked on all things Yoga, Alternative Health & Wellbeing so I added a further 200 hour YTTC in Dru Yoga in 2012, then an intensive Life Coaching training, with certification in 2017, and I’ve grown and developed Karmiyoga to be a synthesis and an embodiment of all of my trainings, experience and knowledge.

I look forward to hearing your story, and seeing how I can support you.

A perfect end to my working week. I had my first outdoor yoga session with Sarah. Sarah welcomed me into the class and guided me through the session allowing me time and space to adjust to my new surroundings. I felt so energised afterwards but with a sense of calm and peacefulness. Thank you Sarah and look forward to our next session. Bridget

I experienced Sarah's conscious coaching as part of an integrated yoga retreat in Kefalonia. it added another layer to the whole experience that has stayed with me back at home. planting ideas and enquiry that works on the subconscious in powerful ways. a year on re-reading my notes i realised that much of those seeds have come into fruition in my life! i highly recommend Sarah to guide you.

In the coaching sessions with Sarah I was able to pinpoint the issues that have been holding me back with promoting my work as an artist. Sarah helped me to see that I needed to allow time for myself to plan and give space around the creative process, and to allow it to fit in and around my domestic life as well, knowing that I can move forward and achieve results in bite-size pieces of time, and acknowledge what I do achieve. She is a great listener and offers a safe space to discuss personal and professional issues that might be impacting on someone moving forward with and recognising their goals. She feeds back on discussions at the end of each session, and even emailed notes to help keep me on track, which I found massively useful. I fully recommend Sarah as a Coach. Kate S, Artist

i have been practising yoga with Sarah and karmiyoga since last year. i absolutely love the classes. they always bring me back to peace and alignment. sarah is an intuitive teacher with a gentle down to earth and soothing approach. Every class matches the energy of the day and of the group. when the classes moved online i was sad and unsure if i would get the same experience from the classes. i am delighted to say that this fear has not come true! i feel very connected to the energy of the class in the same way online. sarah makes sure we are all safe in our practice at home and it has been lively to have my weekly class available in my home. i highly recommend to everyone.

I’ve been taking part in Sarah’s online zoom classes since lockdown started and they’ve been a life saver! I’m doing classes twice a week and get replays to use later. It’s been so good for my mental as well as physical health to have these classes where I can stop, re-tune and do calming yet invigorating yoga. Having the re-play at no extra cost means that if I can’t make the session I can catch up when convenient. Doing yoga online sounds counterintuitive but actually works really well - it’s doesn’t feel that different to doing it face to face - and as it’s live there’s a social element of a quick catch up with Sarah and other participants before or after. Zoom is easy to use and I’ve not had any problems while using it. I’d definitely recommend giving these sessions a try.

Life coaching with Sarah allowed me to effectively and efficiently dedicate some time to setting short term goals, and then achieve these goals. Having recently graduated from university but still feeling unsure what to do with the next stage of my life, talking with Sarah about some of the ideas I've had in the back of my mind but have never voiced out loud before gave me great clarity. Sarah used specialist techniques to ensure I had achievable, focused targets. At the same time, I didn't feel pressured to demonstrate massive progress between each session, I felt relaxed and that I was in a stress-free environment whilst still being dynamic and progressive.

I've been attending Sarah's yoga classes for around 6 years and first experienced her life coaching as part of a soulful retreat in Kefalonia. The session helped me focus on which areas of my life I wanted to work on and gave me the tools to continue independently. More recently, I booked a 30 minute coaching session as I was having a difficult time at work and in general. Sarah helped me see clearly the positives and negatives of my current situation and my options, and helped me feel much more conviction in where I wanted to be! She strikes the perfect balance between pragmatism and helping you see the art of the possible. Thank you Sarah for your warm encouragement and guidance!

I've been practising yoga with Sarah for over 5 years now; I love her beautiful restorative, varied and meaningful classes, I have learned so much that can be used in day to day life too and been lucky enough to join her on two of her wonderful soul soothing retreats in Kefalonia, I've also received life coaching and support in reaching my goals with her, and reiki attunement so cannot recommend her highly enough as a yoga teacher and coach ?

Sarah’s has adapted her classes for Zoom and it’s like having her lovely gentle voice and guidance in your own lounge or garden! Sarah is a skilled teacher, always sensitive to what it needed; currently helping to ground, go inward, and support strength and flow. I love these sessions. ?

Clare Taylor

Sarah's yoga was lovely and she encourages a sense of flow and letting go which I likedx

Melanie Dulong de Rosnay

Sarah's classes are really great, i feel stronger and more balanced afterwards. Sarah explains really well and pays attention to everyone's individual needs. If you have an injury, her therapeutic Friday classes are a wonderful way to recover gently. Sarah is a really lovely person and i can't recommend her classes enough!

Sarah's yoga classes and workshops leave you connected, rejuvenated and inspired. The sessions are easy and gentle but have surprisingly powerful effects! Often it has transformed not just my day but the whole week. Feeling completely uplifted, full of life and happy. Every time I go in in a stressed or irritated mood, it is for sure gone by the end of the class. The classes work with the energies of the body but it is all very down to earth and light-hearted, not forced spiritualism.

I have been going to Sarah's classes for over a year and she is a wonderful teacher. Her classes are relaxing and inspiring, with her gift for tuning in to whatever level or ability you are at and helping you to get the most out of each class. I always feel amazing after her classes and look forward to the next session :)

Love my indulgent Monday night yoga by candlelight. How would I get through the rest of the week without it now?! Xxx

On Saturday I attended my second workshop with Sarah. Being a little geographically challenged I got lost trying to find the venue, and found myself getting very worked up on the street. I wondered if I wasn't meant to be there! But when I eventually found and joined the group it gave me everything I needed that afternoon, which has been my experience at every workshop and class I've attended. Sarah is a great teacher and guide. She's clear in her instruction and inspiring in what she brings to the class. I always feel very warm, safe and nurtured in her company :-)

Sarah's candle lit yoga classes are a moment of pure escapeism in a hectic week. I leave the class revitalised for the week ahead, floating on cloud nine! Thank you again.
