Sarah Gatford is a former athlete who competed at an international level before creating SgFit in 2008. In 2015 Sarah opened a specialist studio at Wrekin Professional Centre in Wellington offering exclusive Pilates and Yoga classes in a tasteful environment. Coming from a background in ballet and with over 15 years of teaching experience in all aspects of health, fitness and general well-being, Sarah has developed an eye for detail and movement precision. This is reflected in her client base, which includes a significant number of professional athletes and other instructors.

Sarah’s passion for Pilates originated when she sustained an injury whilst competing and realised the benefits of using Pilates as a rehabilitation tool, in addition to enhancing performance and lifestyle. Sarah prides herself on continual professional development and education, enabling her to deliver cutting-edge classes and 1:1 and 2:1 sessions. The business has evolved to incorporate lifestyle and fitness coaching, both in person and online. She has also developed lifestyle programmes specific to women including significant factors such as sleep hygiene, stress management, gut health and hormonal imbalances as opposed to nutrition and exercise alone. Sarah recognises that a super busy lifestyle can impact the ability to exercise and offers flexible programmes and classes online that can be followed at your convenience.
