Alexander Technique helps you to understand how to move your body with new underpinning knowledge.
Experience ease, poise and dynamic energy in your movement.

Here’s what our students say:
I was led to discover more about controlling my movements including standing, walking, sitting and rising. Very comprehensive but in a manageable staged sequence. I became very aware of my body and movements and my ability to make conscious decisions on how to move it.
Michael is clearly very knowledgeable but does not overwhelm with jargon. He communicates clearly and provides ample feedback. No question or observation from me was too trivial.
I have been pain free for quite some time now.
The new studio is very conducive to calm and quality treatment. A wonderful setting.
“Michael Shellshear is a masterful Alexander teacher. He guides one into freedom, not just physically but also on a deeper level, addressing many layers of one’s experience at the same time. The knowledge he imparts about Alexander’s teachings and its relationship to the human experience will remain with you for a lifetime.”
“Thank you, Jane. After your Body Mapping session, the flow of air and sound was free and fluid. It was awesome!”
Wasn’t sure what to expect, so the day flowed very well, and the information was easy to follow. Thank You
“Here’s a way to rediscover your body and connect to the way it moves. Come away with a strong connection to a more free flowing, moving you!”
“Jane, I really can’t thank you enough for giving me the tools and information to shift some particularly challenging lifelong habits. Who knew bringing awareness would help so much?! A big thank you!”
I found it very informative and helpful-radical in simplicity of changes in attitude to body and movement, creating new possibilities for ease and change!
Michael has extraordinary skill in Alexander Technique and his group classes are a joy to attend.
A wonderful, engaging and inciteful workshop, with plenty of opportunity to practise the work and much to take home to continue improving my co-ordination and use. The group of people were great to engage with and Michael with his expansive knowledge and experience bought the whole day seamlessly together. Thankyou.
