1. Are your classes challenging?
Yes.

2. I am not a performer but I am interested, can I still come?
Of course! You will get the same challenging lessons.

3. Do you give lying down or table turns?
No.

4. What happens during a lesson?
Lessons are activity based. The activities vary according to student needs and goals. However, rather than working with the 'canonical' Alexander activities such as "hands on the back of the chair," "sit to stand," "silent Ah!," or "monkey," students engage in functional activities, or building blocks, relevant to their current performance inquiry. And I ask loads of questions.

5. How many lessons do I need?
As many as you like. Even a single lesson may be beneficial. I no longer tell people that they should be attending for a certain number of lessons. However, if you wish I will make general recommendations. Here they are: I recommend a minimum of one year of lessons - they could be weekly, or monthly, or any other frequency.

6. What is your background?
Gymnastics, a variety of martial arts, and fitness. I used to work as a Physical Therapist in the U.S. in outpatient orthopedic/spine rehab. I got my Alexander Technique qualification in 2001 from the ITM Bristol course.
