Yoga guidance provides the missing piece in my fitness routine

Lisa M

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Sarah first discovered yoga and meditation in college, where she realized the practice was teaching her something she’d never really learned—how to truly relax. Yoga helped her settle her mind, focus more clearly, and move through the intensity of early adulthood with greater steadiness.

Traveling to Southern India later on deepened her practice and curiosity. After completing a month-long silent retreat, something shifted. The clarity and transformation she experienced there inspired her to share these practices with her community.

An athlete at heart, Sarah loves trail running, swimming, strength training, and yoga. She discovered that pairing mindful movement with daily meditation created a deep sense of grounding—especially during major life transitions.

Influenced by the teachings of Judith Hanson Lasater, PhD, physical therapist and yoga teacher, Sarah blends anatomy-informed wisdom with a restorative, down-to-earth style. She completed her 200-hour RYT with Mark Stevens and continues to study meditation, experiential anatomy, and mindful movement.

Sarah is known for her slower, intuitive coaching approach, non-judgmental presence, and ability to help clients develop body awareness, movement confidence, and a steadier inner landscape—whether someone is new to yoga, returning after injury, or navigating stress or life transitions.

While she has years of experience leading large group classes, Sarah is most inspired by individual coaching. Private sessions allow her to understand each person’s story, adapt in real time, and help clients connect with the heart of yoga and meditation: relaxed awareness, resilience, and steadier inner ground.

I am amazed at how attuned to my body Sarah is after just two 1:1 sessions. Her expertise, demeanor, and ability to communicate with such clarity makes this novice feel confident. An unexpected bonus are tips and drawings that she emails after each session. Coupled with PT and small group strength training at Zenith, this addition of Sarah's yoga guidance provides the missing piece in my fitness routine to remain healthy and active.

What Clients Are Saying About Our Yoga

From weekend warriors to elite athletes, our clients trust Zenith for expert care and real results. Here is what they had to say about their experience with our Yoga—tailored support that helped them move, train, and feel their best.

I had given up on running—then I found Zenith

I’m not exaggerating when I say Dr. Mariel Hammond saved my life. I was feeling really discouraged about an ankle injury that hadn’t healed well, even after physical therapy elsewhere, and I thought it was too far gone for me to resume activities I loved without giving me intense pain. From our very first session, Mariel gave me hope—she’s incredibly knowledgeable, and I had reduced pain and increased mobility right away. Her mix of hands-on tissue manipulation and customized, progressive exercises has made running feel possible again, something I had totally given up on. I’m also learning so much more about my body and physical patterns through working with her. If you’re dealing with pain or a tough injury, don’t hesitate to check out the team at Zenith—I can’t recommend them (especially Dr. Mariel) enough!

I love Zenith—PT that fits how I train

I love Zenith! Working with a PT who understands my running goals and can incorporate strength and conditioning into treatment—along with helping me understand imbalances or injuries as they come up—has been so valuable. Thanks Mike!
