I am finally offering a pilates mat class for beginners on Thursday nights from 5:45-6:45 at the Inner Light Studio. Please see the schedule & pricing page of my website for more info. Thanks!
While the cozy 681 State Street studio is perfect for individual sessions, it is no longer big enough to accommodate group pilates mat classes. As of Tuesday, June 23rd, all Sarah Aldrich Pilates mat classes will be held at the beautiful “Inner Light Studio” about a mile and a half north on State Street. Inner Light is at 938 State Street, at the corner of Bishop and State. Intermediate level classes will be offered on Tuesday nights from 8:15-9:15pm and Friday mornings from 7:30-8:30am. If you’ve taken classes with me, feel free to drop in to either class. If you are new to Sarah Aldrich Pilates, you must contact me at 203-589-7948 or sarah@aldrichpilates.com in advance to see if the class is appropriate for you.
Hi Everyone!
This only applies to clients who bought 10-session packs for $110:
Starting July 1, mat classes will be $15/each. You are still welcome to pay in advance, but a 10-pack will be $150. After 10 classes, you still get one free.
Go to the “Pricing and Schedule” page of my blog to check out mat class availability. If there aren’t 6 people listed, then give a call or shoot me an email to reserve a spot.
Also, please note that I no longer offer group mat classes for beginners. Due to the small class size, and high demand for intermediate/advanced classes, I will only teach beginners in private sessions.
I spent the last week of March in San Francisco learning how to use Pilates as a rehabilitation tool for post-operative breast cancer survivors. I feel lucky to have learned such a valuable skill set and look forward to helping local survivors regain mobility and a feeling of well-being in their bodies. Please check out the Pink Ribbon Program website for more specific information. Don’t hesitate to call the studio for more information. 203-589-7948.
Many thanks to Colleen Martin who arranged my television appearance on WTNH. (she incidentally kept my nerves in check before I launched into these acrobatics!)
…Liz Santamaria. Congratulations, Liz! The picture doesn’t do justice to your graceful flight, but I saw it in real time and it was solid. 
681 State Street was honored to give Phyllis Aldrich her first taste of the reformer. Job well done.

Why Sarah Aldrich Pilates?
Because Sarah somehow makes even the hard stuff enjoyable - and she’s awesome. In group classes and in private session, it’s clear that she’s constantly adjusting to create a series that makes sense for who’s in the room, which winds up making it both interesting and always a challenge.
