Sarah Honer received her B.A. in Philosophy, English, and Dance from George Mason University in 1998. Sarah has been teaching Pilates since 1999 and opened Spira in 2002. Her certifications are through Physical Mind Institute (New York) and the Pilates Certification Center (North Carolina). In October 2008, Sarah completed the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® Foundation Training with Juergen Bamberger. She is also certified on the Jumping Stretching Board. Sarah has taught Pilates for the American Dance Festival's 6-week school and for the Southeastern Regional Ballet Association Festival.

Sarah's approach to teaching is always with consideration to the individual and exploring a student's own unique experience of the physical. Her experience teaching dance and creating dance works lends to her understanding of the nature of movement.

In addition to teaching classical ballet and modern dance, Sarah choreographs dance works for the stage and beyond, and practices turntablism. She co-produced Merge with Motion in 2009 and has been spotted spinning records at the Federal, OCSC, Ringside, Milltown, and The Station!
