Alexander Technique Bristol
When everything is going well, we can take great joy in living to full capacity. Each day brings new and exciting opportunities and we approach our activities with balance and ease.
But for many of us, something seems to shift over the years. What used to be so easy can become an effort and a strain, diminishing our sense of freedom and maybe even the success and enjoyment we experience in our daily lives. Often we feel our only option is to put in more effort, to try harder, which only seems to compound our struggle.
The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way.
For well over a hundred years the work of Frederick Matthias Alexander has been providing people from all walks of life with the tools that they need to change, to develop and to flourish in their lives.
A New Approach to Life
If you’re reading this page, the chances are that you’ve heard something about the Alexander Technique and are wondering whether it might help you. If you have an inquisitive mind and would value more ease, flexibility and freedom in both thinking and movement, then the answer is likely to be yes.
During lessons I will share with you the principles and processes of Alexander’s work, so that you can learn how to apply them with increasing success to your own life.
Each lesson is designed around you as an individual. In a practical way, we will look at your everyday or more specialist activities, depending on your particular interests. Through a combination of questions, reasoning, ‘hands on’ interactions and modelling of a new way of thinking, you will discover how you can approach your activities in a fresh, easy and more effective way.
One of the most exciting aspects of Alexander’s work is that the skills you learn in your lessons are far reaching. In fact, in time they can be applied to every element of your life, with increasing effectiveness . So whilst you may experience rapid improvement in the particular activity we focus on in an Alexander Technique lesson, the skills you will be learning can ultimately be applied to the whole of your life.
Alexander Technique Lessons, Classes and Workshops in Bristol
Alexander's work is the most life enhancing process I have ever come across. Whilst I could talk to you about how marvellous it is to move more freely and easily, one of the greatest joys of this work is how it provides us with the tools and skills to reach more of our potential in life. We become more of our true selves and that liberates us to accomplish so much more.
Whatever your goals, whether it is something as simple as being able to sit, work and move about with greater ease or whether you want to enrich and elevate your skills and abilities in a more specialist area, the mental and physical changes that come from learning and applying this work can bring so much more pleasure in everyday living.
If you'd like to find out more, why not get in touch and book a no obligation introductory session.
I look forward to hearing from you and having the opportunity to share this life enhancing work.

Alexander Technique Teacher Training
Many people have heard of the Alexander Technique these days, but what's not always known is that Alexander's work is one of the most extraordinary and enduring methods for personal development. A number of the people who successfully complete the four year training do of course go on to teach. However, it's also quite common that trainees do part or all of the course purely for the constructive changes that they experience in their own lives. Sometimes the training is the catalyst for them finding out what they really want to do. Other times it is the very process that gives them the skills, confidence and courage to go out and do what they've always dreamed of doing.
