Sara Beck

Sara Beck is a yoga teacher, writer, mama, and owner of Catskills Yoga House. She became devoted to yoga over twenty years ago when after years as a competitive athlete she realized her body needed to be given a new kind of attention and care. Her subsequent formal and informal studies of yoga including Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Kundalini yoga as well as her practices of meditation and reiki energy work have brought a level of spaciousness and ease to her life that she never thought possible. A yoga instructor for over ten years, Sara teaches with warmth and humor in a vinyasa style that is rooted in conscious breath and choreographed with alignment in mind. It is her desire to help students tune in to and honor the unique dialogue within their own bodies and minds - that whispering communication between breath, movement, and stillness – and to discover the lightness and balance by which she herself was so transformed.

“It was as if the kitchen knew what my belly wanted and needed, then served it without my having to ask.”

“Homerun. One of the best retreats I’ve ever attended. Was an incredible treat especially to have so much access to Krishna Das, and I will never forget the Robert Thurman’s hysterical and insightful words. Incredibly inspiring and powerful weekend!”

“Deep in the Catskill Mountains exists a very special place—the Dewa Spa at Menla. On a snowy, late winter afternoon there is nothing better than a long deep soak in one of their tubs infused with the 5 Nectars bath blend. The tranquil sounds of this hidden valley can be heard through a cracked window—the Pantherkill Stream and the sweet symphony of our bird friends chattering about the upcoming spring. This is the perfect place to leave the world behind for as long as possible!”
