"I really don’t know what I would do without our yoga and Feldenkrais community that you have nurtured. Without this regular practice and participation, it is easy for me to be pulled in too many directions, becoming anxious and worried, distraught and distracted." - H

Start the new year in movement with community!

IN PERSON YOGA + FELDENKRAIS BLENDED SERIES

8 week Winter 2026 Series
We’re back with a brand-new series of the Yoga + Feldenkrais blended format, completely low-tech and in-person. Join us for an 8-week series starting Thursday, January 8th, right in the heart of the Twin Cities.

The Breathing Place is a charming, non pretentious, warm little studio in the basement of Olivet Congregational Church. The space allows for a small intimate group so you can get the most out of every session. With a limited number of spots, there is plenty of room for individual attention, detailed feedback and support that simply isn't possible in an online setting.

Thursdays
10:00am – 11:15am
January 8th - March 5th

ABOUT THE BLENDED FORMAT:

This class has a little bit of everything to help one get unstuck from the daily habits that lead our bodies to feeling not as good as we know they can feel. While both yoga and Feldenkrais encourage body awareness, respect for limits, and self-discovery, their approaches differ. Yoga often emphasizes alignment and holding poses, while Feldenkrais focuses on gentle, comfortable movements that improve coordination, ease, and efficiency without strain or stretch. Instead of fixed postures, Feldenkrais explores developmental movement patterns and mindful exploration. In these classes, Sarah integrates the two forms together. Each class is an original, innovative creation of Sarah’s teaching. The pace is slow and accessible to all levels, inviting curiosity and personal exploration within a compassionate, non-competitive atmosphere.

Perhaps this is the season to begin again.

I hope to see you there!
Sarah

Hi everyone, I’ll be honest, trying to run a business right now feels fundamentally wrong. But having heard from enough of you individually, I know how important showing up for you is, now more than ever, so I keep going. For those of you feeling effected by the events in Minneapolis, first, understand what is happening in your own body. Your nervous system cannot distinguish between "this is happening to me" and "this is happening near me". When you watch violence, your brain treats it as a...

Hi everyone, When stress levels are high, it’s hard to do our best work—or even just feel like ourselves. Know that your reaction is a physiological one, please be gentle with yourself. Your brain often treats proximity as a personal threat, unable to separate 'near me' from 'to me'. Over time, this chronic activation isn't just tiring—it physically alters how we function, shallowing our breath and impairing our judgment exactly when we need clarity most. I’ve put together some everyday ways...

Real Life Functional Transitions I’ve spent a lot of time lately thinking about how we stay upright when the ground feels like it's shifting and the world feels increasingly destabilizing. In movement, we know that most injuries and 'clunky' feelings happen in the 'space between'—those transitional moments where we lose our center. If it feels like your whole life is happening in that unsettled space, and you are in need of some free nervous system resources, this is a good place to start....
