Sara Pope
Yoga is the missing piece for me after a lifetime as a dancer and an athlete. I fell in love after my first class.
My foundation is in the Iyengar Tradition and I have been influenced by the Krishnamacharya Lineage, which includes the Ashtanga Vinyasa and Viniyoga Traditions as taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and TKV Desikachar, respectively.
In 2004, I completed a 200 hour teacher training program with local Virginia Yoginis,
Sandra Pleasants and
Jennifer Elliott at
Yoga Source in Richmond, VA. Since then I have completed over 100 hours of continuing education with world-renowned Yogins and have been influenced by all of them.
