Dim the lights, light your candles and come to your mat tonight for a relaxing yin practice bringing a much needed stillness to your body and your mind after a long week. Focusing inwards, noticing your breathe and letting go of everything else. The perfect way to wind down before the weekend. ✨Yin yoga works deeply into our body as we target the connective tissues, the ligaments & fascia using passive, longer holds.

Sara’s candlelit yin yoga was excellent. Sara is very knowledgeable and guided a class or varying yoga experiences. This was my first time doing Yin and it won’t be the last. 

Shiralee Clark

Such a great class with Sara loved this candlelit Yin Yoga workshop.  For first timer it was so relaxing and will definitely be back.  Would highly recommend these classes if you are interested in yoga and taking time out for yourself.  Sara allows and encourages everyone to go at their own pace.  A safe and friendly space.

Loved this yoga class.. absolutely the best way to unwind for the weekend 💖

Ali Johnston

Sara's classes  have very quickly become my favourite way to prioritise myself.  Her classes allow me to switch off from  my busy life for just an hour or so.  Sara makes everyone feel safe and supported in her class and I am very glad to have found her.  

Claire Turnbull

Sara is the most amazing yoga instructor!  It has become my favourite part of the month/week when yoga comes around. Makes you feel so welcome and encourages you to take it at your own pace and enjoy what's right for you.  Thoroughly recommend. 

Abigayle Brown 

Been going to these for the past few months now and it's such a nice way to mark the start of a new month and clear the mind before setting intentions for the next few weeks. Sara is such a personable and intuitive instructor who makes you feel welcome and caters to all skill levels. Massively recommend 🌟

Claudia Chan

For someone that’s completely new to yoga Sara teaches at such a good pace. I have been trying different classes to see what I prefer. Would recommend if you are looking to start your yoga journey. 

Rhona Gibson

I’d highly recommend Sara’s Yin Yoga class! Sara created a calming atmosphere with soft lighting, restful music and mindful guidance. The poses allowed for deep release and relaxation,  and Sara offered alternative poses and use of yoga blocks or bolsters to support all levels.  I left the class feeling refreshed and  more flexible after a busy week at work.  I’ll definitely be returning! 


Corinne Pennington

I have been to a couple of Sarah's yoga classes in her beautiful space. Thoroughly recommend. 

Sarah Watters

This was only my second Yin class but I absolutely loved it! The studio looks fab and is such a welcome addition to Stewarton. If you haven’t tried one of Sara’s classes yet I highly recommended. 

Gillian O’Kane

I have been attending Sara’s class for the last couple of months now. Her classes are always different which I like and she explains the poses/stretches extremely well. I have been enjoying the flow of the classes and find that it has been extremely beneficial for me as I train a lot of strength…..I am already seeing improvement in my flexibility in this short period of time so thank you 🙏

Stephanie Robertson

Thank you so much Sara. I just love candle lit yin yoga on Friday nights.
It’s so relaxing 💕

Janine Marsh

Fantastic class, thank you. Would highly recommend.

James Connor 

The Sacred Sanctuary Candle lit Yin Yoga sessions have proven very satisfying and exactly what I needed. I was suffering with back pain from past injuries (nothing very serious) and hip and other joint pains from been on my feet long days and strenuous physical work over the years. The long stretches in yin yoga have helped immensely! The relaxed environment and meditation & breath work involved has proven an added positive, helping me to relax, focus and take my mind of the various stresses that were plaguing me as a self employed person setting up another new business. I can only recommend this! And add, I amd friends who have joined me for the sessions have all been made to feel very welcome!

Beginners Block 

Susan McGregor

I had a fantastic first class and I loved that Sara took the time to discuss and explain the different positions. She also showed us how to do the move correctly without hurting ourselves. The room was warm and welcoming and I thoroughly enjoyed the class. 

Fiona Davidson 

Really good class , what I was needing to relax breath and to tune in to my body and mind x

Sara is a great teacher, and treats us all as individuals throughout the class, whilst also ensuring that we are getting things right ....or as right as we can !!!!

Sara’s Candlelit Yin class was an incredibly soothing and restorative experience. The gentle glow of candlelight and low lighting created a nurturing, peaceful atmosphere that immediately helped me feel grounded. I arrived feeling a little anxious and overwhelmed, but by the end of the session, it felt as though all my worries had melted away. 

Sara’s guidance throughout was beautifully gentle and encouraging. She supported us through each pose in a way that felt both safe and empowering. The studio itself added to the sense of sanctuary — thoughtfully set with props, incense, and soft music, it was a truly tranquil setting for a Friday evening unwind.

I also love Sara’s other yoga classes, particularly her more active Vinyasa-based classes. These offer an excellent workout while staying deeply connected to the breath — a powerful combination that always leaves me feeling stronger, more centred, and uplifted.

Joanne Kerr

Lovely yoga studio 
Really enjoyed the session on a Sunday morning 
Sara is very friendly and it was quite challenging but not at all did it feel as if I couldn’t go sometimes at my own pace 

Sharon Leitch

Really enjoyed my first class with Sara.  I was amazed that I was able to do it, Sara was gentle and reassuring.

Prenatal Yoga 

Diana Macpherson

Loved the prenatal yoga classes. I always came away from the sessions feeling relaxed, less sore and tense, and learned some new breathing techniques. Would highly recommend. Thank you Sara xx 

Kirsty Lind

I would highly recommend the prenatal yoga, the class was a combination of gentle yoga, breathing and relaxation techniques as well as providing a space to share experiences and meet with other expectant mums. Sara is very knowledgable and you feel in safe hands knowing that Sara was previously a midwife and has a wealth of experience. My only regret is that I joined when I was so far along which meant I could only attend one block before baby arrived! 

Hannah Powell

Having attended the first session of prenatal yoga, I am so pleased I have booked onto the block. The class was extremely welcoming and Sara created a really safe environment. It was great to meet the other members of the group and it will be lovely to go on the journey together. 
I’m looking forward to next week already! Thank you.

Winter Solstice Retreat Day - Release & Renew

Deep rest: Restorative yoga & Sound Healing experience 

Iona Walker

Sara takes you on the most incredible journey of relaxation, meditation and sound. It’s the most incredible experience and a class that I love. I always leave feeling relaxed, lighter, the constant noise in my head has calmed. Sara’s passion for what she does really shines during the class. Genuinely look forward to this experience again.

Breathe into being - A Day Retreat

Susan Anderson 

A fabulous retreat...great to just 'stop' and make time for yourself!

The breathe into being retreat with the lovely Sara was nothing short of life-changing. From the very beginning, there was a deep sense of care and presence in the space she created one that felt safe, supportive, and gently powerful.

The breathwork was at the heart of the day, and it truly shifted something deep within me. I had been carrying emotions that felt stuck for years - grief, tension, unspoken sadness and through Sara’s gentle and skilful guidance, something finally gave way. The release was powerful and very real. It was emotional, it was intense and it was wonderful. Like my body and soul had been waiting for this exact moment to finally let go.

Sara holds space with such kindness and deep wisdom. Her presence made it possible for me to go to the places I had been avoiding and come out lighter, clearer, and more connected to who I really am.

This retreat wasn’t just a beautiful day it was a turning point. I left with a sense that something lasting had changed within me, and I’m so deeply grateful to Sara for guiding me there.
