Back to School here at SAP

Stuff you should know:

1. You can purchase and schedule mat classes online, but must email the studio at
info@aldrichpilates.com to schedule private and semi-private sessions.

2. Thursday’s 5:30pm mat class will no longer be held.

3. No group classes on Monday, 9/6/10 due to Labor Day.

4. We are now selling Therabands at the studio so that you can take your Pilates
stretches and exercises back home or on the road. $5 for 6 ft. Cool.

5. We can no longer park bikes inside the building. If you bike to the studio (which we
encourage, btw), you may lock your bike along the chain link fence that surrounds the open air
parking lot across the street, or you can lock it to one of the signs/meters on Orange Street.

6. In a few weeks we are starting beginning group reformer classes which you will have to sign up for
in advance. Stay tuned.

7. We think you’re great. Really. Our clients make our days fun and interesting.

Greetings SAP Fans!

Want to win yourself lots of Pilates karma as well as a free mat class (not to mention have oodles of fun)? Come on down to the studio next Thursday, June 17th from 1-  3pm for a photo shoot. We want to get pix of the gorgeous new space for the website and we want your smiling face in said pix.

So please shoot us an email at info@aldrichpilates.com and let us know if you’ll be there. We’ll provide water, laughter, and zany poses for you to hold minutes longer  than you ever thought you could!  (PS: please just come in your normal exercise clothes–preferably form fitting, comfy and colorful. And we promise not to wear our party dresses…)

I’ll be teaching on Wednesday, June 9th at 6pm at LuluLemon on Crown St. in downtown New Haven (204 Crown Street, behind Stella Blues).

What better way to decompress after a busy workday than doing the hundred while surrounded by fabulous sportswear!

After only 16 months of being in business, we are pretty thrilled that you voted us 2nd place. Thank you so much to our clients who have made this studio such a fun place to be.

This week also marks our first week in the new location. Here is some raw, behind-the-scenes footage. There were some 14 hour days, way too many ikea allen wrenches, cousins who came out of the woodwork, friends who brought picnics to the dusty and weary workers–Sarah Aldrich Pilates is blessed to have such an enthusiastic support network.
