“I chose to work with Sarah as a way to continue to improve my fitness. I enjoyed running and cycling but felt like I would make more improvements in those activities if I had a stronger core. The perks of Pilates were so much more than what I had expected.

Sarah was able to help give me the modifications and challenges I needed to further my strength stamina, and stability that I needed both for my pastimes of running and cycling, and everyday life.

Sarah is incredibly knowledgeable and a phenomenal teacher. For any body, Sarah is able to work with you to make you stronger! As an athlete, working with Sarah had made my fitness feel rounded out and balanced—my weak links don’t feel like weak links anymore!”

“Before working with Sarah Shea when it came to my fitness I felt stuck in a rut. She helped introduce new methods of exercise that were fun, challenging whole body workouts.

I was concerned with my level of ability, but Sarah assured me that she would work with me to attain a level I was comfortable with. All while challenging me and working towards my goals without overwhelming me.

Since working with Sarah, I have a better understanding of my body and what it’s capable of in terms of overall fitness.

Sarah is an excellent teacher and motivator. She is able to help you reach your goals no matter what they are with her knowledge, patience and understanding of each individuals need.”

“I felt like I needed a change. I was always doing cardio, circuits, Bootcamp etc. I felt muscle cramps, stiffness and pain. Sarah introduced me to Pilates. She made it challenging enough without it being overwhelmingly new.

I’m not very flexible and Pilates is WAY out of my comfort zone because it was completely new to me as a form of fitness. I didn’t want to feel like a failure and not be able to do the moves. Sarah’s instruction and suggestions for modification were great. She’s very upbeat and motivating.

After working with Sarah I felt better range of motion, less muscle pain and a stronger core. I’ve realized the importance of movement and flexibility as I get older. Sarah has helped me with that. During her classes, I could feel the strength and stretch of my muscles.

Sarah is an amazing instructor. You will never get lost in a movement as she will not let you flounder. If you can’t do a move she’s right there with a modification for you. Her cueing and instruction are spot on. I’ve worked out for many years with incredible trainers, Sarah is definitely one of them. She took me (a stranger to Pilates) and made me a believer. When the class is over you’ll feel rejuvenated.”

“I took my first lesson with Sarah in 2010 and started working with her virtually after moving away from NY in 2014.

I had been doing Pilates for a while, but didn’t even know what a really amazing teacher was until I had sessions with her. Over the years she’s helped me deal with all sorts of pain issues and after every session I feel amazing
”

“I first began taking Pilates classes with Sarah in 2012. A few years later, when I had a shoulder injury, I started doing private sessions with Sarah. I’ve never looked back!

After my shoulder injury I thought, Sarah not only won’t aggravate this, she’ll make it better! And she did.

She is a positive influence on my life - keeping my fitness progressing and always, always, keeping my spirits high! Individual attention in Pilates is so important for improvement.

She’s the best. Truly.”

“Sarah Shea is a wonderful Pilates instructor and actually a terrific person. I’ve taken private, semiprivate, and group classes with Sarah since 2012. She knows your strengths and your areas of concern and helps you work through them. I’ve been a mason for 40 years which takes its toll on your body. Pilates has saved
my body and allowed me to keep doing what I love to do. Sarah has played a very large role in that and I can’t thank her enough.”
