movement direction
With a deep interest physical and energetic transformation, Sarah draws artists into a raw psycho-physical expression of character, state, and species.
Her process is both somatically grounding and boldly expansive, calling the artist into uncensored territory and supporting them at the threshold between impulse and action where brave and truthful choices are made.
With an exacting eye for detail and a keen intuition for psychological narrative and nuance of gesture, she collaborates closely with directors, shaping movement that fully realises their vision and the story waiting to be told.

testimonials
Sarah is responsive, sensitive and generous with her expertise - creating an environment for the actors that was both productive and playful. Her rigorous attention to detail and her holistic approach to the work make her a brilliant practitioner and collaborator.
Alice Hamilton, Associate Director, Hampstead Theatre
Sarah is adept at reading the room and understanding the needs of performers very quickly. She is very intuitive and able to provide input that enhances and develops the work being done. She builds performers' confidence, giving them tools and ideas that enable them to reveal much greater detail and specificity of character.
Isabelle Kettle, Opera Director, Royal Ballet and Opera
Working with Sarah I developed a lot of confidence in my body’s ability to create the drama needed in my scenes. We worked on the role of Juliet (Gounod) which I performed at the Royal Opera House, and I have never felt more powerful and grounded on the stage. I had complete trust in myself and was wholly committed to the storytelling through my body and mind.
