She is passionate about improving people’s lives by coaching them to have a greater awareness of their physical sensations and to help nurture functional movement.

She is passionate about sharing the powerful skills of the Feldenkrais Method while working with babies and children with delayed and developmental challenges.

Sarah McAllum
Sarah McAllum BIO
Sarah McAllum knows movement and play are essential to getting the most out of life.

Now a certified Feldenkrais Practitioner with a decade’s experience under her belt, Sarah’s real buzz is to help you be more playful, power up your everyday movement and find your spark.

Patricia Zehentmayr
Patricia Zehentmayr BIO
Living in a too loud, fast-paced, competitive world always posed challenges for Patricia. Was something wrong with her? In 1996, she was told by a psychologist, that no, nothing was wrong, she actually had a trait shared by 15-20% of people- that of being a Highly Sensitive Person. This started her on a path to learn all she could to navigate this trait, leaning into its advantages. Along the way she mastered Feldenkrais, Emotional Freedom Technique, and Inner Reconciliation to communicate with the nervous system skillfully. It is her passion to share these gentle methods with other HSPs.

Erin Finkelstein

Erin has helped hundreds of people from all professions, ages, and walks of life, to learn how to move with more ease and perform pain-free. In her private practice, Sound Movement Services, as well as through courses and workshops for Universities and Community Colleges, she brings a compassionate and knowledgeable approach to helping you live a more skilled, creative, and vibrant life.
