Dear Students at Coastal Bliss,

I will be taking a sabbatical from teaching yoga for the next little while in order to dedicate some time to my yoga studies and practice. I have appreciated and loved our studio time together and look forward to sharing the depth and joy of yoga in the near future. Thank you all for being so wonderful!

With love, Sarah
