Working in Evanston and the Chicago North Shore, Sarah helps you understand how your body moves so you can practice with more clarity, confidence, and ease.

Each session meets you where you are and is tailored to your current needs and capacity.

You will be Heard.

There is no one like you. What hasn't worked for you is just as important as what has. Sarah is here to hear it all: the accidents, falls, injuries, losses, setbacks, and successes.

You will be Seen.

She will observe how your spine, joints, breath, and movement habits work together, mapping how your body organizes itself to move and find balance in the world.
