Meet StretchySarah
I’m Sarah Childs, a professional contortionist, dancer, coach, and content creator in Las Vegas, with a day job. Which is exactly why my flexibility training is built for real life, not just the stage.
22+years training
10+years performing
10+years coaching
Training & education
Trained in the Mongolian contortion tradition.
Mongolian contortion — the lineage
Trained under Enkjin Sasha, Aza Sharavnyam, Anna Batchuluun, and Buyana & Suvda Ganbaatar.
Dance — where it started
I began dancing at age two in Dallas, Texas, and went on to earn national recognition for both performance and choreography. At Chapman University I trained in ballet, contemporary, modern, jazz, and hip hop.

The real-life thread
But most weekdays?
StretchySarah is sitting at a laptop too.
Elite-level training, fit around calls, deadlines, and a body that is stiff by 3 p.m. I’ve taught flexibility, dance, yoga, contortion, all the things, for 10+ years, and my biggest complaint was always the same: there was never enough time to really see everyone and give them what they needed to do on their own. That’s why I coach the way I do now. Flexibility that survives a desk job.
