Sara Girardi, RYT 200
About Sara Girardi, RYT 200:
Although I was a fairly athletic young person, Sara never really found just the right physical activity to fit her body and her mind; aerobics was too jarring, mountain biking too dangerous, downhill skiing too out of control, and running hurt her shins. So, when Sara started practicing yoga in early 2000 it was initially to satisfy a sense of curiosity…but also she was still looking for that perfect “exercise”. Right away she was drawn to the sense of rooting down into the earth coupled with the experience of lightness and expansion. And although Sara loved the mental and physical challenge, over time it was the sense of peace and connectivity that ingrained the practice of yoga into her life. Today Sara loves the way yoga grows with her and continues to be everything she is looking for regardless of what that is. As an instructor, Sara hopes to offer her students not only a challenging yet safe physical practice and a sense of peace and joy found within the quiet moments between the breath.
In addition to her group classes, Chi-Town Shakti and Sara Girardi offer:
Private Yoga Lessons (email to schedule)
Small Group Lessons (email to schedule)
3 Things That Make Her Happy:
1) Cuddling with her 3 year old.
2) Long hikes in the woods
3) Scouring flea markets for the perfect treasure
Favorite Poses:
• Shirshasana (headstand)
• Eka Pada Kapotasana (pigeon)
• Bakasana (crow)
