Sarita retired from her performance career in 2007  after a severe hip injury incurred onstage during a performance. While she was able to recover and rehabilitate for subsequent Spring and Fall performances, she made the decision to retire from the performance stage and move to exciting new chapters in entrepreneurship, motherhood, capital markets and financial advisory, nonprofit management, executive leadership and higher education.

 

The rehabilitation from her injury began her dedicated  refocus to obtain teaching expertise on somatic principles & practices, personal training  and fitness instruction modalities to enhance her dance instruction and coaching.  After obtaining multiple certifications  in Pilates, group fitness and personal training formats, Sarita founded and ran a personal training and small group training studio for three years. She continues to work in this space and is now available for online instruction and private coaching.
