🤍 Why 🤍

Everyone’s reasons are different, here are my two main “whys” for loving Pilates Reformer classes.

1) Supporting my mental health

Class is my dedicated “me time”. No emails, no to-do lists, no multitasking. Just me and my body. Focusing on breath, alignment, and slow, controlled movement gives my mind a break from everything else. For that time I am present, grounded, and not overthinking. Over time, that consistent reset has really helped decrease my stress levels. It’s one of the few places I fully switch my brain off from everything else and recharge my battery.

2) Feeling confident in my body

The movements are about control and precision, not perfection. As I notice improvements in my mobility and form, I feel more confident. I don’t mean this in how my body looks, but instead what it can do. That sense of capability is incredibly empowering. Reformer work targets deep stabilizing muscles, especially through the hips, core and shoulders. I notice the difference in my everyday life. Carrying bags, walking, climbing stairs, even sitting at my desk. The inner strength translates into a feeling of overall resilience.

No matter what your “whys” are, Pilates Reformer can be a powerful way to support your body, mind, and your relationship with yourself.

See you on the reformer!

🤍 House of Pilates 🤍

Hi, I’m Sarah, a Certified STOTT Pilates Reformer instructor here at House of Pilates in Mission, B.C..

I have been teaching private reformer lessons for the past two years out of my home studio, and I’m so excited to now be offering small group lessons here at House of Pilates. With only 6 reformers in the studio, I love that I can still give each client plenty of individual attention while creating a supportive group vibe.

My love for the reformer started 15 years ago when I began taking private lessons with Michael at Mission Yoga and Pilates. I was hooked right away! I originally bought my own machine and completed my training just to make sure I was practicing safely at home, but somewhere along the way I realized I didn’t just want to do Pilates…I wanted to teach it. I’m so glad I followed that pull. Watching clients fall in love with the reformer the way I did is truly one of my greatest joys.

Alongside teaching Pilates, I am also a Certified Nutritionist. I work one-on-one with clients to support them in building balanced, sustainable habits. My biggest passion is mental health and for me the most powerful way to support my mental well-being has been a combination of:

* mindful movement on the reformer
* balanced nutrition
* intentional lifestyle choices

I can’t wait to meet you on the reformer at House of Pilates and help you build stability, strength, and a deeper connection to your body and mind.

If you have any questions about classes or nutrition support, feel free to reach out. I’d love to connect.

See you on the reformer! 🤍

💫 One year alcohol free 💫

When I decided to “take a break” from drinking, it wasn’t supposed to be forever. It was just going to be a short reset, a little pause. I had done it many times before. But as I kept extending that break, 30 days turned into 60 days, which turned into 90 days….I started noticing huge positive shifts in my life. The longer I went, the more I realized I didn’t actually want to go back. So I didn’t.

Today I am celebrating 1 YEAR alcohol free!

As I look back over this year, I don’t miss having drinks at all. Not the wine with dinner, not the margaritas on the water, especially not the “just one” that didn’t always stay at one. When I look back, I don’t see what I’ve given up. I see everything I’ve gained:

💫 A clearer mind
💫 Stronger boundaries
💫 A deeper sense of self-respect
💫 More present, meaningful time with the people I love
💫 A genuine connection to myself that alcohol used to blur

I’ve also said goodbye to some things:

🚫 Hangovers-alcohol made me feel like a pile of garbage, not just the next day, but it seemed to echo through the entire week
🚫 Certain relationships-and that’s okay. Not everyone is meant to walk every part of your path with you. Letting go of certain relationships has made space for more aligned connections
🚫 Caring so much about what other people think of me-releasing that has been incredibly freeing

And my body has thanked me. The changes have been powerful:

💫 My anxiety has significantly decreased
💫 My skin is noticeably clearer and softer
💫 My inflammation has gone down, and I feel so much lighter in my body.

What started as a “little break” has turned into one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for myself. I don’t know exactly what the future holds, but I do know this version of me, clear, grounded, and alcohol free, is the one I want to keep choosing.

If you’re curious about taking a break from alcohol, or if you’re struggling with your own relationship with drinking, please reach out. You’re not alone, and I’m always open to talking about it 🤍

🤍 Nutrition 🤍

I’m a certified nutritionist who is deeply passionate about the connection between what we eat and how we feel both mentally and physically.

I believe nutrition shouldn’t be extreme or overwhelming. Together, we focus on small, realistic changes that can make a big impact on your mood, energy and overall well-being.

If your’re struggling with your relationship with food, low energy, mood, feeling “off”, or simply curious if you’re eating what your body really needs, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’m currently offering 1:1 nutrition appointments where we can explore what YOU need and build a plan that feels realistic and sustainable.

If this resonates with you or you’re interested in getting support, please reach out. My DM’s are always open 🤍
