About
At Ashta Yoga, we specialize in providing private, personal, partner, children, prenatal, and group Ashtanga Yoga classes, as well as corporate sessions. Ashtanga Yoga is a time-tested practice that has helped individuals achieve optimal physical and mental health for centuries. It differs greatly from the Westernized yoga styles we're familiar with.The Ashtanga Practice offers a range of benefits, including weight control, muscle toning, relaxation, anxiety and depression reduction, improved concentration, and overall mental acuity. It also teaches healthy community living. Ashtanga Yoga is an 8-limbed practice that includes movement, breathing, personal ethics, social ethics, sense withdrawal, meditation, maintaining meditation, and contentment.
At Ashta Yoga, we follow a traditional approach to teaching that aims to help each student learn how to practice the 8 limbs in daily life. Our goal is for the student to eventually become self-sufficient and cultivate contentment within themselves at any time or place. We don't outsource, and I am the only teacher, having been trained in a sacred lineage and having lived and studied in India.
We believe that every action should embody stability and ease in equal measure. This results in a balance of physical and mental stability and ease, gradually reducing all life obstacles by teaching right body and mind reactions to the suffering of life. We offer Hatha Yoga for beginners and beyond, combining vinyasa, slow flow, and restorative physical postures. Additionally, we offer alternative healing and life coaching sessions with an Ashtanga foundation.
Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind. Practice, and everything will come. With Peace, Sarah Skinner, Ashta Yoga.

Since spring of this year, my spouse and I have been collaborating with Sarah, and it has been a wonderful experience. Sarah excels in evaluating her clients' requirements and customizing each session to address them. My partner's flexibility has progressed significantly, and we're able to achieve more every week. Moreover, it has served as an exceptional bonding opportunity for us. We strongly recommend it to anyone interested in practicing yoga.

Ashta Yoga has been a great aid in my healing journey and I am deeply fond of it. The conventional yoga practices I was introduced to have proven to be beneficial for my physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. Initially, I had no idea that this practice would impart so much positivity in my life until I started taking it seriously. I strongly endorse Sarah as a skilled instructor, her abilities are exceptional. 💕

Having attempted numerous therapeutic techniques, I have unequivocally concluded that this one resonates with me the most. It provides an excellent balance of physical and mental fortification, which is precisely what I have been seeking. I am certain that I will return repeatedly. As the saying goes, "Yoga is the calming of the mind," and goodness knows how turbulent mine can be! Each time I attend, I gain fresh insights, and Sarah possesses the uncanny ability to perceive what I require on a weekly basis, as I am constantly evolving. Much appreciated, Sarah! 🙏 I look forward to seeing you again next week!

After my second yoga session, I have already experienced significant changes. To my surprise, my instructor delved into the mental aspects of yoga in addition to the physical practice. Admittedly, I had initially thought yoga was simply about bending and stretching on a mat—a reflection of my limited knowledge in the discipline. However, my instructor has proven to be incredibly caring and attentive with a genuine interest in helping her students address their overall health. She understands human beings as both mental and physical beings, and this holistic approach results in a relaxing and comfortable session. Additionally, her kindness and generosity with knowledge make her an excellent choice for anyone, whether you are a beginner or have stopped practicing in the past. She encourages hard work, but the rewards are substantial, leaving you feeling energized and renewed. Anyone who is skeptical should give her first session a try. Investing in the best version of yourself, both physically and mentally, is an essential journey that starts with a single step.
