kelley abatzis
As a certified yoga instructor and health coach, Kelley’s intention is to help connect you to your inner self. Kelley wants you to shed the internal chatter, judgement and ego so you can become more present in the moment, while providing balancing guidance. When she discovered yoga 20 years ago, she wanted to complement long distance running with flexibility and exercise but quickly realized it was so much more. Now, as a mother of two children, yoga has taken on a whole new meaning: digging deeper to find stability and balance, providing much needed rejuvenation and ultimately attaining peace on and off the mat. Kelley believes the true essence of yoga is about physical, mental and spiritual connections you forge inside and project into the world.

SARAH ROBBINS
Sarah has always been a mover. She began dance lessons at the age of three, not knowing that it was the beginning of a lifelong journey of growing through movement. Movement was a refuge, a safe space. A place to express freely, and without reservation. Throughout her teens movement became her primary language. When words were too difficult, there was always movement.
At 16 she discovered yoga and began to incorporate the physical aspects into her dance program. It wasn’t until her early 20s where the true essence of yoga really came through and she stepped fully into the path. At 28 she had her first child and the path and practice took a backseat for a short while. In 2017 after the birth of her, second son, she completed her YTT and began sharing her love of movement in music with the community.
Yoga has been a journey of coming back home to self for Sarah, and it is her intention to create a container in which you can experience the same.
