The secret to ease, balance and freedom in movement.
“Normally habit controls and directs our thought – Alexander’s technique reverses this” Prof. FP Jones
The Alexander Technique shows that your health and wellbeing depend on how well your mind and body work together. When that coordination is disrupted, often by unconscious habits like muscle over-tension, your whole system can suffer. This can show up as poor posture, chronic pain, breathing difficulties, or reduced performance in skilled activities.
Through simple, practical techniques, you can learn to prevent this interference and restore natural coordination. Over time, this approach has helped thousands of people improve how they move and how they feel.

Learn the Alexander Technique
Engaging with a teacher marks a turning point—your awareness expands, revealing both the forces at play and the choices now available to you.
You don’t need to be in pain or crisis to benefit. Many people come simply to move better, feel clearer, or reconnect with a sense of quiet confidence. From inner awareness to outer action, the changes that you experience reshape how you sit, stand, speak and live.
If you are living with pain, this work offers a way to soften its grip and rediscover ease.

Teacher Training: Unlock your full potential by exploring your mind’s and body’s integration. Learn to unblock the interference of tension habits and come into a profound balance.
• Explore your senses and the awareness of which they are capable. Deep dive into the process of constructive conscious control of human functioning and how it leads to practical neuroplasticity, liberation of movement and complete self-regulation and resilience.
• As you accustom yourself to letting go of unhelpful habits and mindsets, you learn skills to help others. Learn thoughtful touch and delicate manipulation of the body to enhance your Alexander practice and to guide others to experience a new conscious awareness.
