ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE LESSONS in Vienna, Austria
Individual and Group Sessions

"The Alexander Technique should be studied in the atmosphere of a tea-party a pleasureful, easy-going, and creative exchange of information." (F.M.Alexander)

I offer you competent and committed tuition in the Alexander Technique in my private practice in Vienna.

The Alexander Technique is a psycho-physical discipline which engages our way of thinking as much as our physical habits. It is about creating conscious choice in how we perform the acts of our daily lives so that we can perform them with more ease.

In my teaching I therefore combine everyday applications of the Technique with opportunities for self-exploration and personal growth. And I also value humour in the process!

For those who do not already know the Technique I offer a free introductory session.

In the introductory lesson I ll be interested to hear about why you have come, what you hope to achieve by learning the Technique, and what you like doing. I will work with you using a guiding touch and verbal explanation, introduce you to the basic principles of the Alexander Technique, and we might explore some simple anatomy.

In on-going lessons we will continue our exploration of the principles and I encourage you to look at the applications which are important to you. For example, we could consider playing a musical instrument, riding, running, sitting at the computer, driving, emotional reactions, learning difficulties ... And we shall continue to explore living anatomy when relevant.

I invite you to ask questions, be curious about yourself and notice your own process of change. A diary can be very helpful here.

You can of course stop lessons any time you wish. And of course you can always come back again with any questions, discoveries and concerns. How far you take it is entirely up to you.

In common with most Alexander teachers, I usually work on a one-to-one basis. This means I can give you my undivided attention and focus on your particular concerns. However, I do also run workshops for small groups. These are particularly useful as an introduction to the Technique.

Lessons last about 45 minutes. I recommend a frequency of about once a week. Even after only a few lessons you will notice the benefits. A course of 20-30 lessons is usually sufficient for most people to learn the basics of the Alexander Technique and to apply them to their everyday lives.
