Sarah Michelson

Sarah has loved all forms of movement from a young age and was a competitive athlete for many years. After college rugby took a physical toll on her body, Sarah found a balance of strength and ease through her yoga asana practice. During her years living in West Sonoma, Sarah’s teachers Jenn Russo & Ann Austin helped her deeper her physical & spiritual practice, and showed her the power of a moving meditation to calm busy chatter in the mind.

Wanting to deepen her practice further after relocating to the Big Island of Hawaii, Sarah completed her 200-Hour teacher training with Shivakali Yoga, led by Gloria Baraquio & Serge Bandura. Sarah now resides full-time in Kona, teaching weekly classes at the Yoga Nest while balancing a career in corporate event production. Sarah’s flow classes sequence related postures in a creative, scalable way for all practitioners to connect breath with movement. Sarah encourages her students to approach their practice without judgement, with an end goal of bringing more gratitude, joy, and peace to her students’ lives.
