Sabrina grew up in the Swiss Alps, dedicated to a healthy lifestyle from an early age. As an elite athlete, competing in the Gymnastics World Championships, she focused on the physical, mental and emotional components needed to achieve the serenity to compete at the highest levels. After spending 2 decades in the corporate world in New York City, 5 years ago she decided to dedicate herself fully to her passion, bringing with her not only her skills and professional knowledge, but also an understanding of what it means to have a desk job, and how important it is to keep the body moving. Now she shares her passion with you. She is a RYT 500 registered with yoga Alliance and a graduate from Zen Den School in Boca Raton, FL as well as from Yoga India Foundation in Rishikesh, India. She has led yoga retreats in The Hamptons, NY as wells as Florida and Switzerland. Since May 2020 she is also teaching yoga online and has since led hundreds of classes with students from all over the world.

Retreat Specialties

Our Southampton retreats are very unique in that there is no other retreat in that area, which is a very affluent area 2 hours away from New York City, at a very reasonable price. Also, I noticed that everyone feels comfortable at my retreats. We have a lot of "first time yoga retreat" participants and they don't feel intimidated at all. Much rather they love our very welcoming and forgiving atmosphere. Whether you are a seasoned yogini, or you have never taken a yoga class, and/or are not familiar with any form of meditation and/or spiritual practice, you will love our retreats!

Teaching Specialties

My students can expect a kind teacher. Someone who cares about their needs and builds it into the practice. My classes are all-levels in that everyone can follow without hardship, and at the same time they provide enough challenge that one will feel energized at the end of the class. Most important for my students is to feel like they have "done their workout" and also to relieve them from the little aches and pains of everyday, as well as from the emotional stress. And my goal, is to make that happen for them.

What are your favorite Retreat Venues around the world

I lead my retreats from our own place. The best infrastructure is in Southampton. Guests are staying in a quaint cottage by the sea located across the street from the ocean and directly on the inner coastal water. The accommodation is simple but offers all the necessary comforts like A/C and wifi, and the location is magical. Guests can use our beach chairs to go to the beach, bicycles to ride into town, or SUP to navigate the canal. The yoga classes are help either on the beach or on an outdoor platform specifically designed to provide stability for balancing poses and softness for the knees at the same time.

What's your personal definition of what it means to thrive?

My personal definition of thriving is to be engaged in an activity that motivates me to the point that I can invest so much effort and time to obtain visible results, fulfillment, and abundance.

Who do you look up to ? Who has helped you the most along your teacher / retreat leader journey?

Ira Ohm is the YTT leader at Zen Den School where I did my RYT-200. I basically learned everything from him from teaching yoga, to leading a retreat to advertising my business. David Marr is my husband, who made everything possible. He inspired me to start this adventure, he had the infrastructure that I could use to host my guests in The Hamptons and he was there every step of the way, even when things got hard or complicated. Valerie Leeds is co-leader and wife of Ira Ohm. She always inspired me to be kind. Mathias Muheim, is my brother and yoga instructor. He inspired me to travel to India for my RYT-500. Namaste.
