Exclusive Boutique Retreats & Virtual Clinic for Shrewsbury & Shropshire.
Specialist Somatic Comprehensive & Remedial Pilates, and Buff Bones for Bone & Joint health & Osteoporosis.
A Master level Somatic led Approach to Movement, Longevity, & Nervous System Regulation in the Heart of Shropshire.
A Global Education brought to Shropshire
Expertise rooted in Shropshire, trained globally.
I am Sarah Pritchard, one of the UK’s few ISMETA-regulated Master Somatic Movement Therapists and a 3rd Generation Pilates Teacher. After a decade of study in London, New York, and Zurich, I returned to my home county to open this Shrewsbury sanctuary.
My work bridges the gap between clinical remedial Pilates and deep emotional healing, ensuring you receive movement therapy that is trauma-informed, scientifically grounded, and tailored to your body’s unique story.
While my weekly clinical practice has moved to Birmingham and Virtually, I continue to serve the Shrewsbury community through curated Somatic Retreats and intensive Franklin Method workshops held mainly at Newton Meadows, chosen for its space and incredible calm.
I’d love to hear from you and support you on your journey,
Sarah

A Sanctuary for Boutique Retreats & by appointment sessions
Unlike a quick 1-hour 1:1, the expansiveness of Newton Meadows allows for Somatic Immersion. The "sanctuary" feel makes it possible to hold boutique retreats where the work can settle over several hours. This "unhurried time" is the greatest luxury in somatic practice - it gives the nervous system permission to fully let go of chronic patterns that a standard gym or studio environment might accidentally reinforce.
I specialise in:
-
Move from 'survival mode' into deep healing and growth. Soma Soul works deeply with the emtional body and helps resolve blockages, trauma and stress held within our viscera.
-
Transform how you move by changing how you think; the Franklin Method bridges the gap between your mind and your mechanics, helping you release chronic tension and discover the effortless power of your own design. Move with ease comfort and a clearer and calmer mind and body.
-
I am a 3rd Generation Comprehensive Pilates teacher and haave specialisms in remedial exercise for a diverse range of populations including menopause, bone and joint health, osteoporosis, pre and post surgery, pre and post natal including diastasis recti recovery, dance health and wellbeing. I combine this work with the Franklin Method and Somatic Therapy to gain optimal results for you.
Bone & Joint Health: Buff Bones® programming specifically for Osteoporosis and Menopause.

Experience the same master-level guidance and nervous system regulation from the comfort of your own home - the ultimate safe space for somatic work.

"The breath work is immersive and my mind chatter stopped!"
The Franklin Method Breathe and Relax class was amazing. At the end of a busy, mind stretching day I anticipated struggling to switch off and relax. Following Sarah’s gentle prompts I was delighted. The breath work is immersive and my mind chatter stopped! The session left me relaxed but feeling healthy and energised... I highly recommend Sarah to anyone..”
