I had the pleasure of taking one of Sarah's yoga classes. Immediately one could tell she was very experienced with yoga and very knowledgable. I was not familiar with yoga or had much experience with it but after one session with Sarah, I was hooked. She took the time to explain everything in detail while we were doing the moves. We [...]

Sarah Plummer is one of the strongest and most uplifting people I have had the pleasure of knowing! I am bitterly disappointed that she experienced something so traumatic in the Corps, yet Sarah is a true inspiration and it is a testament to her character that the traumas have not defined her or limited her in [...]

Mountain Biking – A Metaphor For Life (Yes, Seriously)

About a week ago, while I visited family in North Carolina, I was having kind of a drab day.  I had not slept well, and had been inside most of the day trying to get some work done.  I did not feel like exercising, honestly.  As much as I love the trails throughout my parents’ [...]
