Sally Wooldridge

Sally is a yoga teacher, musician, and artist, passionate about helping others tend to their inner creativity and connect to themselves. She first formally encountered yoga as a physical practice over ten years ago and began her deeper studies in India in 2017. Since her introduction to yoga philosophy during initial teacher training, she slowly came to see that many aspects of her life already held the essence of yoga. With a foundation in Ashtanga and Vinyasa, her yoga practice has since evolved to include asana, pranayama, meditation, sound/silence, and stillness as a way of listening, tuning in, and connecting to the true internal and external sacred world of love and kindness. As an artist and musician, the meditative concepts of surrender, ‘coming home’, allowing energy to flow, focus, feeling, and letting go, were beautifully familiar. As a natural progression from music, Sally found mantra and kirtan as a comforting expression of universal energy, a way to be present in its grace, and to expose and hold loving space for what comes up; messy, imperfect, honest, all! Her practice and teachings are slow and compassionate, taking the time to soften into stillness from movement or sound, and riding the breath to a potent, healing state, guiding mostly yin, meditation, and pranayama sessions. Sally is also trained in Thai yoga massage and reiki and uses these different perspectives to inform her practices. Sally shares from a space of personal experience and curiosity, drawing on the idea of uncovering the rich and magical ‘wholeness’ within each of us. Her wish is simply to guide others to the teachings and discover their own freedom in their unique, joyful being.
