About me
I am medical graduate & worked first in
health education. I completed the three year training to be an
Alexander Technique Teacher in 1982 (MSTAT).
I have been in practice in Norwich, in the county of Norfolk in
England, since 1988, giving private lessons and a wide range of
introductory & specialist workshops for the general public
and for public & private organisations.
My passion is a problem-solving approach to applying AT to
everyday life. Because so many of us are in thrall to the
computer, one focus has been on the challenge of coping with the
ergonomic problems it presents.
I have written two books on AT: Thorsons Introductory Guide to
the Alexander Technique, 1991 and The Alexander Technique
in Everyday Life, 1996. The Alexander Technique Birth
Book, 2006, co-authored with Ilana Machover, was re-issued
recently.
For a number of years now I have taken a special interest in
applying AT to improving fitness. I have found it helps prevent
injury, and can make acquiring and maintaining fitness an
absorbing & enjoyable experience. In my forthcoming book,
working title Holistic Exercising with the Alexander
Technique, I explore how AT transforms the experience of
walking and running, swimming, working out and the use of the
rowing machine, skiing, skating and Tai-chi.
I hold a British Rowing Level 2 certificate in Coaching Indoor Rowing.
