Sara Phelan is a meditation and yoga teacher with emphasis on Psychology and Mindfulness.

She holds a Master’s Degree from the University of Hawaiʻi Mānoa, in Indian Philosophy and Religion, and a Bachelor’s Degree from the University of West Florida, in Art Therapy.

Sara’s certifications include: A Deepak Chopra Primordial Sound Meditation Teacher, a 500-hour Ayurveda Consultant with the American Institute of Vedic Studies, a 500-hour Akhanda India and Open Space Yoga Hawai'i yoga teacher, and a Yin Yoga teacher through Sarah Powers Insight Yoga.

She is also the founder of The Arjuna Institute, a 501(c) (3) non-profit that teaches mindfulness and self-regulation techniques to K-12 school children and at-risk youth, particularly sex-trafficked teens on the island of O’ahu. 

Sara leads and facilitates yoga teacher trainings and workshops, as well as one-on-one private classes, or large group settings.

Her classes focus on going within and exploring self limiting beliefs and thought systems, as well as creating a healthy and strong mind/body.

Sara’s love for yoga began as a small child while living in a Poona Indian Ashram. 

In her own words…

"It's deep within my roots, and the seeds were sown… is what I like to say about living in India as a little girl, and since then, I have been on a yoga mat ever since. Yoga is all about connection.”

Sara lives in the mountains, near the ocean on the North Shore of O'ahu with her husband, two daughters, and family of pets.
