Individual Lessons

An individual session is the best way to learn. I offer both in person training and video conferencing.

We will work together on one of the following activities to see how you are working with yourself. Then we will work together to help you find your own personal connections and the language that best helps you to maintain this skill set.

The exercises we will work with are:

Standing and sitting

Semi supine - laying on the back with the feet on the floor, knees folded,

Folding into semi flexion - standing with a fold forward in the hip knee and ankle,

Lunge - the transfer of weight from one foot to the other,

Hands on back of chair - using the hands,

Whispered ah - breath control and vocal production,

Each one of these exercises we call an inhibitory phase. This means you practice stopping and learn what that actually means in terms of the work needing to be done. Instead of relying on assumptions based upon trial and error.

This is an education in the use of you. The length of time it takes is really dependent on you. However you can attain a sound grounding in the Alexander work with 10 weekly sessions. This will allow you to begin practicing on your own.

Some people come for lessons just because they want to feel better. 

If you are wanting to supplement therapy with the addition of Alexander lessons, expect to work for a minimum of 24 weekly Lessons. Alexander work is not a therapy, it is an education in your own use and functioning. The benefits of self regulation are great and sustainable depending on your commitment to you.
