Anne is a qualified Alexander Technique teacher in 2021.

In the Alexander Technique, we work through contact to gain new bodily experiences, working towards feeling ourselves better, and thereby being able to use ourselves better.

The work has both a bodily-mechanical, energetic and emotional approach; experiences we work towards could be:

Bodily-mechanical: an experience of being able to stand, sit and walk effortlessly, experiencing an inner coherence in the entire body, experiencing what it can feel like to be centered and balanced around one's midline, experiencing that the body can almost support itself, and that breathing can be free and deep.

Energetic: a subtle experience of one's inner body, greater inner coherence, experiencing a calming of the nervous system, and discovering new inner spaces and possibilities.

Emotionally: experience that bodywork can open up to emotional themes, in a safe setting and with a calm nervous system, have the opportunity to have new experiences in a perhaps painful area, both physically and mentally, experience that bound pain can be moved.

Students come for a wide variety of reasons, ranging from a completely isolated physical problem to a desire for a longer course where there is time to work more deeply.
