When not performing music professionally, Heather Walker teaches the Alexander Technique out of her home studio in Nanaimo. The Alexander Technique can be used by anyone to improve awareness, movement patterns, and posture. With the help of the technique we can change negative habits that can result in symptoms such as tension, back pain, repetitive strain injuries, and inefficient movement.
