About the Alexander Technique

“If it weren’t for the Alexander Technique, I would not be living an independent life now, as my back would have prevented this.”

About me

"After more than a year of lower back pain, I decided to try the Alexander Technique.  Philip's clearly structured guidance and teaching has shown me that I can achieve greater lightness and freedom in my everyday life, and less pain – if I put my mind to it."

                                                               Peter – April 2009

“I have been having Alexander Technique lessons with Philip for nearly two years.  Ordinary everyday activities such as standing and sitting have become more poised, lighter and less effortful as a result of what Philip has taught me.  When I apply the Alexander Technique I feel less stressed and more capable of doing things without excessive tension, and I am more aware of how my body is actually functioning.  Philip has the ability to express what he teaches very clearly.  I recommend him.”

"Philip's teaching has made me aware of how I use my body and how to improve the way I use myself.  For example I now know how I can stand straight without excessive tension, and without forcing myself up.  He is articulate, wears his learning lightly, and knows how to communicate, using memorable examples of what he is saying.  Learning the life changing Alexander Technique with Philip is life enhancing.  He's a star!"

"After the session with Philip I walked out feeling the release of a tension which has plagued me for several years.  I felt again how my head/neck was supposed to feel."
