“I didn’t believe that such a simple set of techniques could have such a profound effect on me both physically and mentally.”
Jeremy, Student of Alexander Technique

“…I have gained bodily awareness, insight into limiting habits, practical ways of dealing with stress and tension in my body and a better quality of life due to Alexander Technique teachings.”

Come try out the Alexander Technique in this workshop designed specifically for musicians. Explore the possibility of lightness and freedom of movement, using the Alexander Technique to expand your awareness. We will use practical experiments to learn how to notice tightening, release muscle tension, re-establish better balance and move more efficiently. Anyone can learn to recuperate from stress and prevent undue wear & tear by using less effort in daily activities.
