Meet Sarah

Hi, I’m Sarah Janae.

I’m a classical Pilates teacher, content creator, and community builder based in Durham, North Carolina.

A few years ago, if you had told me Pilates would completely change my life, I probably wouldn’t have believed you. What started as a workout quickly became so much more. Pilates was the first thing I stayed consistent with, and through the work I discovered better posture, more confidence, greater body awareness, and a deeper connection to myself.

In 2024, I moved to Atlanta, Georgia to pursue my Pilates teacher training through Classical Kulture Pilates. Leaving home and immersing myself in the work challenged me in ways I never expected. Georgia changed my life. It taught me discipline, consistency, and what it means to fully commit to something you believe in.

During my training, I fell in love with the Classical Pilates Method—not just the exercises, but the history, precision, and intention behind the work. Classical Pilates teaches the body as a whole, helping you build strength, mobility, coordination, and confidence that carries into everyday life.

Today, my mission is simple: to help people experience the same transformation Pilates gave me. Whether you’re stepping onto the mat for the first time or returning to movement after years away, you are welcome here.

Because every body is worthy of movement.

Meet Sarah — Your Classical Teacher, Friend, And Biggest Supporter

Welcome to my studio!

Hi, I’m Sarah Janae and I teach Pilates but I’m also obsessed with it and figured I’d just create a third space. Or should I say my online coffee shop where you can grab a classic cup of joe* Here we follow the classical method of Pilates but wherever you’re from you CAN sit with us because you’re worthy!

New to this? Still true to you.

Come as you are. I’d love to move with you. You’ll fit right in.

Classical Kulture Pilates

I completed my comprehensive Classical Pilates training under the mentorship of two incredible teachers:

Alexa Idama — Jay Grimes Lineage

Michelle Leach — Romana Kryzanowska Lineage

As a fourth-generation Classical Pilates teacher, I am honored to carry forward a method that has transformed lives for generations while helping clients discover what it can do for them today.

Beyond Pilates

When I’m not teaching, you’ll usually find me:

Strength training

Creating content and sharing my Pilates journey online

Attending Pilates workshops and continuing my education

Hosting and participating in community wellness events

Taking long walks and enjoying time outdoors

Why Classical Pilates

Authentic Method

After years of variations and new formats emerging, the Classical Method continues to stand the test of time. Experience Pilates as Joseph Pilates originally designed it—with focus on form, precision, control, and progressive movement patterns that build lasting results.

Holistic Approach

Classical Pilates trains the body as one connected system. Each exercise challenges and strengthens your body evenly while improving flexibility, coordination, posture, balance, and overall movement quality.

Mind-Body Connection

The Classical Method encourages mindfulness and body awareness through intentional movement. By combining concentration, breath, and control, you’ll develop a deeper connection to both your body and mind.

Specialized Equipment

Classical Pilates utilizes equipment specifically designed to support and challenge the body. From reformers and cadillacs to chairs, barrels, and small apparatus, each piece serves a purpose within the original system.
