where movement matters most

SARAH AND THE SSN METHOD

Sarah is the founder and creator of the SSN Method. With foundations in Pilates, yoga, dance and aerial, the method changes how you move and feel, inside and out. Inspired by her two decades as a celebrity trainer and wellness expert, Sarah found women want what works and what feels best — connected, effective movement that creates structural strength, length and beautiful lines. Practicing the method transforms the way you look and has a dramatic effect on how you feel and move through your life.

As a young dancer turned professional aerialist, Sarah began studying Pilates and Yoga in her late teens and twenties to learn the specifics of how women’s body’s work and how important it is for us to feel powerful, free and alive within them. Transforming bodies and mentoring movement teachers is her lifelong passion. She’s had the privilege to lead and develop teacher training in aerial yoga, aerial dance, Pilates and flexibility, as well as own multiple boutique studios — first in Aspen, CO and now current in Westport, CT. 

Sarah shines in the wellness space, leading clients in person, virtually, through her streaming platform SSN Online and at special events representing luxury wellness and fashion brands and products.

Praise for sarah


My first session was like nothing I had ever experienced before. Sarah designs a plan for you to work with to meet your physical, mental and spiritual needs. Her hands on adjustments are divine and just enough to get you to your edge.

- Lisa

“Sarah is a true genius with incredible knowledge of the body and movement.”


What I got instead was an incredibly thoughtful life-planning session along with integrated movement that matched my personal needs - both physical and mental. I left feeling lighter and clear about my goals but also sore - in the best possible way.

- Alex

“I went thinking I was going
to a typical Pilates lesson…”


“It’s given me a connection to myself that I had been searching for feverishly.”

- Elizabeth

“The SSN Method is more than just physical activity. “


The time we spend together working on my physical body is actually helping me in so many other aspects of my life and giving me confidence and courage in all other things that I do.

- Arielle
