Movement Coach
Meredith is a movement coach for actors, dancers, business professionals and teachers.
It starts with the body. I believe in grounding the individual from the bottom up where one builds a stable foundation. This results in an acute body awareness for a risk-taking practice. Whether you want to develop a character, prepare an interview for the camera or speak in front of a public audience, Meredith works individually or in groups with professionals who seek to refine their skills in voice and body practices. This coaching style specializes in using movement to activate the body within situational practices, acknowledging the reasons for our actions. With this in-depth study of the expressive body, alternative ways of being can be realized through behavioral strategies, spatial positioning and rhythmic body timing. Being in action, gives immediate feedback and allows for a transformation within a performative practice. As a movement coach, my goal is to motivate the individual to live within their actions and acknowledge how their presence takes up space.

A functional practice that brings attentiveness to the mechanics and positioning of the body within specific scenarios (work, family, health & wellness etc) based on the individual. The practice will focus on how to communicate with greater clarity and impact by using the body as an enhanced facility.
