a wellness event series for the overworked and under-rested.
beautiful, local, and already on the calendar.
beautifully designed.
curated by saba. wellness that looks as good as it feels.
close to home.
close to you, not an hour into the city. the reset without the commute.
already scheduled.
it’s handled + on the calendar, so your role is just showing up.
on sabatical™ began with a health crisis, mid-email.
its founder, saba, has spent a decade in corporate, and very nearly let it take everything before she changed course. what brought her back wasn't a sabbatical she couldn't take.
it was rest she finally scheduled: movement, restoration, community, and the radical idea that her own wellbeing belonged on the calendar.
this is that, designed for you.

free · outdoors · all levelsthe alignment session
our come-as-you-are pilates reset: 30-min mat class & very good company.
the alignment session is the free one — no edition, just rsvp to a standing invitation between the main events.
realigned - in every sense - before the work week.

bergen county, nj · venue revealed soon
cost
free, but rsvp required!
bring your own mat + water!
everything you’d ask hr,
if hr were this fun.
the practical stuff, like what to bring, what's included, what happens if it rains. no ticket number required.
—————
and if you’re here to see if sabbatical is intentionally misspelled sabatical, the answer is yes. it’s because of saba - get it?
-
no — think of the editions as the offsite and the alignment session as the standing meeting. editions are ticketed, seasonal, and fully built experiences. alignment sessions are free, outdoors, and casual: a mat class and very good company. attending one doesn't require the other. we'd just love to see you at both.
-
no. truly. every class is all-levels, with modifications offered up and down throughout. if it's your first mat ever, you'll be fine, and if you're a regular, you won't be bored. there is no performance review here.
-
please do! on sabatical™ is built so that arriving solo never feels like a risk: no icebreakers, no forced mingling, no networking. you may leave with a friend, but don’t worry: you will not be forced to make one.
-
everything. the class, every activation, the beverages, a curated gift bag, and the photos. once you're in the room, your wallet is officially out of office.
-
wear something you’re comfortable to move in. that's the whole packing list. everything else - the warm drink, the good lighting, mats, towels - it’s handled.
-
tickets are non-refundable, but they're transferable. give your seat to a friend and just email us the swap at hello@onsabatical.com 48 hours before the event. we're happy to help your seat find a new home.
-
for outdoor sessions, we watch the sky like it's a deliverable. if conditions turn, you'll get an email and a text with the call — a covered backup, a reschedule, or a credit. you will never be left doing pilates in the rain wondering if it's still on!
-
it sure is!
-
we’ll be serving light bites and snacks! if you have an allergy or dietary need, note it at checkout
-
every edition is professionally photographed, and attendees get the gallery afterward (the kind of pictures you actually want of yourself). if you'd rather stay out of frame, just tell us at check-in — we'll make sure the camera respects your ooo.
-
very likely yes. our instructors offer modifications throughout. check with your doctor first, then email us at hello@onsabatical.com before the event so we can take care of you properly. note: you'll sign a standard waiver at check-in, same as any class.
-
join the waitlist and you're first in line if a seat opens, and first to know when the next edition drops. seats open to the list before anyone else!
-
doors open 30 minutes before we begin. come early enough to check in, and claim a spot on the mat! parking details land in your confirmation email so you're never circling the block on your one day off.
-
email hello@onsabatical.com
a real person reads it, and she's LOVELY.
an email you'll actually want to open.
join the list.
edition tickets, alignment session locations, and everything else - you’ll know first.
no spam, no follow-ups, no per-my-last-emails: just a notification about the next pause.
consider it delegated.
you've justified every line item, every headcount, every quarter.
you do not need to justify this one.
the date is set, the room is booked, the experience is built.
you just arrive.
