Improve the way you speak, move, and respond — by changing the way you think.

The Alexander Technique is a long proven and innovative approach to movement that teaches you how to think in activity. By bringing attention to the way you move and respond, you develop mental discipline and gain indirect control over your own full potential. Despite what many think, it’s not about ‘posture’ or finding a "correct position" —it’s about transforming the way you think, move, and live.

Gentle and lasting change is possible.

The Alexander Technique helps performers develop the mental discipline to move, speak, and express with greater freedom and ease. Rather than trying to force change, it teaches you how to indirectly influence your body by becoming more aware of your habitual way of thinking in the moment.

Through this embodied approach to movement, actors and performers learn to find poise within any activity, access their full range of expression, and perform with clarity, confidence, and authenticity.

Benefits:

  • Improve at whatever activity is most important to you faster by doing less of what’s blocking or getting in your own way. As Alexander says, when “the principles of reasoned conscious control are adopted…[they] will attain proficiency…in one-tenth part of the time that the subconsciously controlled [person] took to obtain a half-mastery of it.” - F.M. Alexander
  • Explore how you can apply key principles behind Alexander’s groundbreaking work in practical, everyday ways to improve your ease, efficiency and freedom – in nearly any activity!
  • Actors, musicians, and performers of every kind have reported great benefits from the Alexander Technique, specifically far more ease and improved quality when going about their work, and more freedom to choose how they want to perform.

Exploring Movement
Through Lessons

Lessons provide an engaging and supportive space where you explore both how you move and the thinking behind your movements.

You're encouraged to bring in any activity you're interested in and enjoy - such as:

  • Sitting
  • Walking
  • Talking
  • Typing

Or something more specialized like:

  • Acting
  • Playing an instrument
  • Singing
  • Presenting
  • And many more!

Through these activities, we explore key principles behind Alexander's work and how these principles can be applied in daily ways to improve your ease and efficiency. Every experience can be a doorway to greater freedom and skill!

Each practical lesson consists of discussion and guiding hands-on work. During these sessions, we'll take a fun and lighthearted look at your movements and the thoughts that influence them! This may seem small or subtle at first, but bringing attention to how we think about our everyday movements often leads to surprising shifts - even a general sense of greater freedom in our daily lives.

Group Lessons

Group classes are also a hugely beneficial option, as they allow for observing others, sharing insights, and participating in group discussions. This often deepens understanding in ways that individual work alone may not. That said, private lessons are equally valuable and may suit some learners better. You’re welcome to try whichever format feels right for you - or both!

An Educational Approach

While many students experience positive changes such as reduced pain, less tension, and overall better well-being, the Alexander Technique is not a form of therapy or a replacement for medical treatment. It is an educational approach focused on developing awareness and choice. Through this process, students learn to use their thinking and reasoning abilities to improve how they move and function.

One of the most exciting aspects of this work is that it meets you exactly where you are. Whether you’re brand new to an activity or have years of experience, there is always room for growth and continuous improvement.
