Meet All Teachers

Besides being an animal lover, nature enthusiast, and creative spirit, I’m a certified yoga instructor who specializes in Forrest Yoga, Yoga Tune Up®, and Roll Model Method® myofascial release, as well as other mindful movement and meditative practices. My goal as a yoga teacher and my dharma as a human is to support and inspire others to feel more at home and empowered in their own bodies, and to hold space for my students to cultivate curiosity about their own inner experiences and facilitate a nourishing mind+body+spirit connection.  

~~Sarah Pomaro found yoga just in time to save herself from her too-busy schedule: working full-time, going to school for her MBA, and trying to keep up a home, she barely found time to take care of herself.

My teaching path began in 1993 in Halifax Nova Scotia as a personal trainer. When our family relocated to Dubai, I began to develop my hatha yoga practice, which lead to teaching opportunities from 2006 onward. We relocated back to Ottawa Ontario where I had the honor of teaching within the Beyond Yoga Studio and Blue Bamboo community from 2011-2015.  One more move has landed me in Kelowna BC in 2015 looking for a yoga community that craves mindful yoga.
