About the Uncommon Sense Approach

There's something to be said about wisdom that stands the test of time and is handed down from generation-to-generation in order to preserve the integrity and potency of its knowledge. And while there's something invigorating about trends, there's something wise about tapping into all that's worked on human bodies for thousands of years!

Uncommon Sense Studio's offerings connect you with the healing wisdom of eastern medicine that's been around the sun for thousands of years so your "keep calm and carry on" can stand the test of time as well. Our more new age offerings (like aromatherapy, card reading and fusion fitness)  are all-natural and complementary to all our healing modalities so there’s little risk and high potential for uncommon rewards when you buy a U.S.S. product or service. 

Moreover, working with U.S.S. is straightforward. Whether you're interested in physical, mental, emotional or spiritual support, you talk with our uncommon senseis ahead of your session and receive your money back if we cannot offer you what you expected. Moreover, whether your healing or goals require one session or one year of sessions, we shoot you straight so there’s never an icky feeling associated with your purchase. 

 

For those who require more long term support (a year or more), your first session is even free to help you have confidence that UST is definitely the right fit for you and your personal healing journey. It is the U.S.S. goal to create an uncommonly peaceful experience for all clients, students, trainees and staff.

Though our Uncommon Senseis are very different people, both found the practice of yoga and thereafter holistic healing during times of struggle in their lives. With successful backgrounds as modern business women, their high-paced past offers them the patience and know-how necessary to help modern people connect with ancient insight and peace of mind from where they're at, right now, without any judgment for opposing lifestyle choices and decisions. Our uncommon founders focus on building health, wellness and a sense of resiliency in all the lives they touch. 

Meet Brittany

Brittany started practicing yoga habitually after getting hit by a car crossing the street in 2012. An avid runner and athlete at the time, she found it difficult to get back to her previous intensity as she rehabilitated her brain and body from her injuries. When she found traditional yoga, it seemed to be a one-stop shop for all she needed. 

 

After a month-long trip to an Ayurvedic yoga village in India, she dedicated her life to pursuing eastern healing. Since then she’s become an overly-certified yoga instructor, Ayurvedic lifestyle coach, and Vedic birth chart consultant, helping others fall in trust with the practice the same way she did. Her programs and consultations are a lot like her: a tough yet fun reminder you’re braver than you believe & stronger than you think!

Meet Sarah

Sarah started practicing yoga over fifteen years ago while in an in-patient rehab, which led her into the realm of holistic healing from a fast-paced, stressful life in business. Through her own experience in recovery and as a trauma survivor, she is particularly interested in the healing properties of yoga, sound, and energy work. 


She has advanced training and experience in mental health, addictions, eating disorders, and trauma and offers classes, small groups, and private sessions with genuine trauma-consciousness. Sarah enjoys guiding clients to better capacities to manage stress, trauma, and everyday life and her offerings demonstrate this in spades.
