Sarah Durney Hatcher

Biography:

Sarah has been many of our Mysore Teaching Team's main teacher for over 10 years, with Emma Isokivi assisting and practising with her for over 5 years when she was in Edinburgh directing the Meadowlark Yoga Mysore programme. She has a very special place in our hearts and community and a big honour to have her teach with us annually.

Sarah grew up in the US in the Reno, Nevada / Lake Tahoe area. After years of competitive ski racing and playing soccer, her mental and physical well-being had had enough. Sarah found yoga as a teenager and began Ashtanga Yoga in 2000, and hasn't stopped since. She has practised with Śri K Pattabhi Jois, Sharath Jois, and spent her earliest years of practice with Nancy Gilgoff and Christine Hoar. Her present teachers, David Garrigues and Dena Kingsberg have taught her the practice through Advanced B. Sarah studies Sanskrit chanting with her teacher David Miliotis and teaches a weekly chanting class online.

Sarah teaches workshops and retreats around Europe as well as runs a small Mysore programme in Dublin, where she lives with her two sons Dashiel and Calvin. When she isn't on the mat she is climbing indoors and outside, running after her boys, and planning their next outdoor adventure.
