I am a highly experienced and well-known teacher of the Alexander Technique, and have had a busy private teaching practice for the past 24 years in London, Manchester and Cheshire. For many years, both before and after my training, I studied extensively with almost all of the teachers who had trained with F.M. Alexander himself.
I am a teaching member of the Society of Teachers of the Alexander Technique, appropriately insured and with an enhanced disclosure CRB certificate.
I have also been involved in the training and supervision of teachers, and for five years I was the Assistant Director of the Manchester Alexander Technique Training School for Teachers (MATTS). In addition, I taught at the Royal Northern College of Music for several years.

The Alexander Technique
What is the Alexander Technique?
The Alexander Technique is a practical method for changing the way in which you use yourself in everyday activities.
How does it work?
The Alexander Technique works by helping you to identify and prevent the harmful postural and movement habits that aggravate, or may be the cause of, stress, pain and under-performance.
What will I learn?
You will learn how to release tension and rediscover better balance in body and mind. With increased awareness you can: - be poised without stiffness - move gracefully and powerfully with less effort - be alert and focused with less strain - breathe and speak more easily and freely - be calm and confident.
