Your Tailored Tuition

Individual (one to one) attention

A first lesson is an opportunity for you to get first hand experience of the Alexander Technique, how we approach teaching, and a sense of the direction that further lessons should take you in.

You may be asked to perform common movements like sitting or walking. Your teacher will give you verbal feedback and instruction as he or she uses his/her hands to gently guide you to an awareness of physical tensions, holding patterns or distortions that otherwise lie below the level of your conscious attention. You may also be asked to lie on a firm table, again while the teacher helps you to identify and release unhelpful holding patterns. Pupils find the process pleasant, calming and relaxing as well as informative. It is gentle and non-invasive.

On-going lessons follow a broadly similar pattern. If the pupil is even just a little diligent in working on themselves in between lessons (and this need never be onerous), then functional improvement, improvements in ease of movement, breathing, poise and self-awareness and -control should inevitably follow.

Most people book an initial lesson where they can gain direct experience of the Technique and discuss their particular situation with a teacher. The initial lesson runs around one hour and the fee is $130.00. On-going lessons are 35-40 minutes in length and cost $75, or around $70 if you book a package of lessons or $65 if you are a tertiary student. Enquire about our other individual lesson/group class packages.

If you would like to meet us first, some group classes and occasional lecture or demonstrations are also available.
