A look inside Sabai Studio

It’s gentle, low-impact and easy on your joints 🌿

Pilates is a great starting point for those who want to move more but may be recovering from injury, managing long-term conditions or simply want to avoid high-impact exercise. 

Movements are smooth, controlled and focused on alignment, helping you build strength without placing stress on your joints. All of our small group pilates classes give you the space and attention you need to move at your own pace.

You’ll learn to activate the right muscles 💪🏻

In each session, you’ll be guided to connect with your core, glutes, back and postural muscles. It is not about doing endless, quick repetitions, but about moving with control and precision. 

This mindful approach helps improve your posture, balance and everyday strength, which will benefit you both in and out of the studio.

Classes can be tailored to your body and ability ✨

Whether you choose mat, tower or reformer pilates, every class at Sabai can be adapted to suit you. Our instructors will be sure to offer modifications based on your experience level, physical needs and any concerns you may have. 

We always check in with you before class to make sure you feel supported, confident and comfortable.

It helps build long-term strength and mobility 🧘

Pilates is not just about how you feel during a class, but how you feel afterwards too. With regular practice, you may notice better posture, increased flexibility, stronger core control and reduced tension in the body. 

These improvements come gradually and naturally, making it easier to stay consistent.

It’s a relaxed and encouraging environment 🫱🏼‍🫲🏾

We understand that starting something new can feel intimidating. That is why our beginner sessions are kept small, with friendly instructors who will support and guide you from the moment you arrive. 

Whether you are new to pilates or just a little out of practice, we will help you feel at ease right away.
