Sarah Reed

Sarah Reed

After suffering for over a decade with severe digestive challenges and already in her mid 30’s, Sarah tried Pilates on a whim “to get fit” and found it improved her well-being far beyond her hopes. Discovering physical transformation and a new empowered relationship to her body, pain, and healing, she went on to study yoga, massage and coaching.

As a teacher, Sarah brings her diverse skills as well as a compassion for and confidence in her clients. Having experienced personally the shift from a limiting belief she hopes to help her clients to also enjoy expanding horizons in terms of their physical potential and capacity. Turning 50 in 2023 Sarah feels stronger, more flexible and more capable in her body than ever before. She wants you to know she didn’t start out that way, that change can happen, and that all bodies are amazing!
