Sarah Oleson is an International yoga and wellness retreat leader based out of New England. Sarah was introduced to meditation as a child when her mother brought her to the local yoga studio, where she learned to sit and focus on the joy of being present. Keeping a daily practice over with the years with mindful meditation, vinyasa yoga, and many other facets and yogic paths, Sarah decided to take her practice a step further. She completed her 200 hour Vinyasa Flow Teacher certification with Frog Lotus Yoga International in Bali, Indonesia in 2014, training and teaching alongside some of the best instructors in the world. She returned to Bali in April 2018 to complete her 500 hour ytt, and has been traveling the world since. 

Leading retreats and teacher trainings all over the world has allowed Sarah to be constantly inspired by nature, different cultures, spirituality, and the elements, linking movement, breath and the true beauty of life through the graceful practice. Her Classes combine mantras, mudras, deep pranyama, and asana... expanding the full yoga experience. Her playful and energizing classes challenge the body while still relaxing the mind. Sarah encourages growth and interconnectedness of the physical and spiritual self within students, and incorporates accessible levels and modifications for each individual.

Sarah seeks to help others thrive by nurturing body and soul through yoga, and her hope is that her students will step off their mat and into everyday life with that same nourishment and balanced attitude.

I am dedicated to guiding and supporting humans of all levels, walks and ages into the depths of self inquiry by emphasizing personal empowerment and encouraging the strength to embrace emotional processing. I truly aim to offer services that shed light on incorporating the nature of yoga and plant medicine with all other aspects of life.

I fell in love with the peace consciousness I felt when I started practicing yoga and around the same time in my life I began working with herbs. The two seamlessly flow into one another, when we have a calm body, calm mind, we allow the space needed for plants to work their magic.

Traveling the world has been a big part of my life for many years. When I began my teacher trainings I knew that part of my path was to guide students into self rediscovery while connecting with others around the globe. I’m on my sixth year leading yoga retreats internationally including countries such as Egypt, Kenya, Spain, Italy, India, Greece and more. All yoga retreats include yogic practices, emotional awareness techniques, Earth and plant medicines and miscellaneous workshops dependent on location and guest teachers.
