Sarah Iriks

Born and raised in Brisbane, Sarah Fedrick has been dancing since the age of four. After fracturing her ankle at nine years old, her physiotherapist recommended that she try Pilates to rehabilitate the injury. Pilates has been an important part of Sarah's life and dancing career ever since.

In 1998, she continued her dance training full time with the Queensland Dance School of Excellence, attaining the highest achievement of Solo Seal from the Royal Academy of Dance after her first year. At just 15, she was accepted into The Australian Ballet School in Melbourne, where she won the Graeme Murphy Award for highest achievement in contemporary dance, and graduated in 2001 with honours in anatomy and recognition in choreography and drama.

Over the next three years, Sarah danced professionally with the Queensland Ballet, the West Australian Ballet, the Australian Ballet and overseas. Upon semi-retiring in 2004, Sarah became a qualified Pilates instructor, and imparts her intimate knowledge and experience in poise, grace, precision and correct movement.
