Sarah McAllum, Movement Works

Business overview

Overcome pain, move with ease and get back to living the life you love.

Whether you want to improve your everyday movement and mobility, posture, breathing, reduce stress or tension or untangle persistent pain—I can help.

At Movement Works, I help you get off autopilot and gently unravel habits that may be behind your pain or discomfort. You’ll be guided to discover easier, more effective ways to move (think movement re-education) so you can get back to doing the things you love, with more comfort and confidence.

I use a system of learning, awareness and movement called the Feldenkrais Method (it rhymes with nice), grounded in neuroscience, biomechanics and human development.

Movement Works is the best move you can make.

Testimonials

"Sarah makes classes fun and interesting at the same time. I find it fascinating to learn how the smallest of movements can have such an impact on the way my body works. I have benefited from the classes and recommend them to everyone"

"I highly recommend Sarah and Feldenkrais. I came to Feldenkrais looking for relief from chronic sciatica pain in my right leg and SI joint. My first meeting with Sarah was very reassuring. The movements were very gentle with an emphasis on breathing properly. After the first session I felt as though my shoulders had dropped and I was walking more easily. Any aches and pains from daily life are alleviated by doing one or more of the exercises from Sarah’s comprehensive follow up notes (no special equipment involved). Best of all, I have no sciatica pain."

"After just a few sessions with Sarah my shoulders and neck started to loosen up and the headaches were gone. I was completely amazed what she had achieved in such a short time. I feel much more relaxed overall, not just in my shoulders. Sarah has given me fantastic tools to improve my overall wellbeing. Feldenkrais has improved my daily life tremendously! "

My point of difference

At Movement Works, we go beyond movement.

We take a deep dive into how you move, feel, and think—because how you do something matters.

We’re not here to push muscles around or count reps. Instead, we connect body and brain by switching on your mindfulness muscle - that quiet, powerful force that rewires your brain for good.

The result? Sustainable change, surprising ease and a sense of "why didn’t I learn this sooner?"
