Your best investment
is you
My offer to you is 'more than the mat'.
I combine Pilates movement experiences with education around Psychological Fitness that can help you feel stronger, more at ease, and get the best out of life.
You’ll enjoy positive movement experiences, supported by empathy and emotional intelligence, that will help you move through the stress, anxiety, and pain you feel, and improve your physical and mental health.
Hello, I’m Sarah Edwards
At the heart of everything I do is a passion to serve others. With a calm and professional approach, I will put you at ease.
I have been practising Pilates for over 10 years and originally practised it to help alleviate lower back pain and to become stronger.
However, the impact was much more than a physical one. I realised in time that Pilates helped me 'press pause' in my busy schedule, reset my mind state, and alleviate my anxiety. With such impactful and long-standing results, I know first-hand the impact that Pilates can have.
I trained with Polestar alongside my then role as a Teaching and Learning Director, and went full-time with my business during the pandemic of 2020 (definitely a leap of faith)! I haven't looked back.
My garden Pilates studio is my sanctuary, and yours
I built my Garden Studio in 2022 (whilst navigating a breast cancer diagnosis). I am passionate about Garden design and the value of green spaces for mental health. The studio became my sanctuary as I underwent 2 major surgeries, and I'm pleased to say I was given the all-clear at the end of 2022. Pilates helped my physical and mental health throughout this episode.
I have lived in Solihull since 1995 with Ken (who also practices Pilates). We have two sons, Sam and Henry.
