As a curious child, Sarah Baumert, experimented with the yoga postures she found in a book. She found joy in how the postures stimulated intense energy or offered calm. She was far more comfortable with expressing with her body than her words and became a professional dancer.
When she became a yoga teacher she learned to put her profound experience into words so she could guide students to find that for themselves.
She later realized how her dance training had an oppressive quality that was instilled in her. This deeply affected her movement and how she related to herself.
It wasn't until her Feldenkrais training, Sarah learned how to move to the music of her internal senses as a way to work through chronic dance injuries and to find freedom in her body.
