About the Instructor
In 2020, after 20 years of personal yoga practice, Sarah Kline shifted from a career in petroleum engineering to studying and teaching yoga full time. Her physical practice is influenced by her training with Debbie Mills, Sarah Montross, Christina Sell, and Gioconda Parker. Sarah primarily focuses on her studies in Sanskrit, meditation, and Yoga Philosophy under the guidance of her teacher, Manorama, founder of Sanskrit Studies and the Luminous Soul Method. She teaches at Life Time Greenstreet, River Oaks Country Club, and at her home studio in Oak Forest. Sarah invites students to explore their bodies in classes which are accessible to all with modifications offered amidst juicy alignment cues and philosophical contextualization.
