Teaching & Hosting
Sarah’s yoga journey began over 10 years ago after she suffered from severe lower back pain. She began taking classes at Santa Monica Power Yoga and soon discovered not only did her pain subside, but she was experiencing mental and emotional healing.
While moving around the country for her broadcasting career, she always found her yoga community and continued to deepen her practice.
In 2015, she embarked on her 200 hour teaching certificate with CorePower Yoga in San Diego.
A registered yoga instructor since 2016, Sarah has taught over 1,000 classes to a variety of students that includes amputees, working professionals, and kids, and has coached multiple teacher trainings to help the next generation of yoga instructors.
She’s also been given the opportunity to mix her broadcasting career and yoga together, creating, hosting, and producing her digital yoga show “After The Mat”, hosting for iYoga Everyday as a teacher trainer, as well as teaching yoga via video.
AFTER THE MAT
With Sarah Pilla
After The Mat is a show highlighting people in the yoga community who are living their yoga off their mats and contributing to the world around them. The idea came to me while working in news. Through yoga I have found deeper purpose, and that is to live my yoga off the mat by helping others. I knew of great stories of others in my yoga community and wanted to use my love of storytelling through video to share them.
