The Alexander Technique is a hands-on practice. I teach using gentle hand contact and the thoughtful quality of AT work through observation, exploration, movement and supporting the development of self-awareness through verbal instructions.
​
Each lesson is tailored for you as an individual and is one to one in my teaching room, lasting up to 45 minutes. I invite you to wear comfortable clothes and remove your shoes. The Alexander Technique will help you, through my guided touch as well as verbal instructions, to find the balance and ease needed in movement and everyday activities. An important part of the lessons includes "Active rest", or as it is known in the AT world as "Semi Supine", a position you will learn to incorporate as part of your regular routine. However, in our one to one lessons it will involve hands on guidance whilst on a Marsh Couch (therapy table) to assist in engaging with a lighter and more connected self.
​
If you are a new student, we will have a 30-minute consultation via zoom (included in first lesson) in advance, to get to know each other and for me to understand what you expect to gain from learning the technique and for you to know what I offer as a practitioner.
As a member of STAT (Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique) I am required to follow guidelines for close contact services and prepare a written risk assessment for covid and non-covid related issues which I will go through with you.
