Sarah’s skills as a coach and director are incredibly wide ranging. Working one to one with actors, she deftly prepares them for their roles. She will support them in developing a movement language and style that accurately reflects what’s needed for their specific project, assisting them to broaden their movement language vocabulary, embody their character with subtlety and nuance to bring the character to its fullest possible expression.

Highly experienced at working with ensembles of performers and teams of animators, she directs rehearsals, devises choreography and ensures cohesion and consistency in performance. One of her specialisms is creature performance research and direction. Her ability to translate the nuances into movement and facilitate the embodiment of creature characters in actors and animators is widely called for in the industry.

Sarah coaches one to one for specific roles; considering the character’s inner world, life story, character journey/arc, personality, mental state, illnesses, conditions, psychology, age… and how these factors play their part in characterisation and embodiment. Sarah honours the genre and period of the piece, the performance style and works with the world & environment in which these stories unfold.
Sarah has also coached models, musicians, singers, dancers, public speakers, presenters, magicians, child performers, writers, journalists
and other non-professional performers in various contexts and settings.
