We’ve learnt to do less, now we need to learn to do more.
Learn to activate your directions from a place of quiet presence.
In my lessons with Miss Goldie, she repeatedly told me that I needed a strong back if ever I was to be a useful teacher! Though inhibition was primary, she showed me how I released too much, and taught me how to engage more tone in lessons and everyday life. Most of her work was on my torso, not on my head/neck relationship. It was so different.
So I’ve created this course to teach you everything you need to discover this for yourself.
It’s based on chapter 7 of my book, The Alexander technique, twelve fundamentals of integrated movement. Since publication there have been many new discoveries – making the activations gentler and more effective. This course hugely expands on the chapter material with new discoveries, more anatomy and lots of bonus material to help your integrative thinking.
You’ll learn to use your thinking and consciousness along with activated directions to build your strong back!

Testimonials and stories
"The idea to actively engage the muscles that are not or not sufficiently working by applying the pulls: that was new for me and it makes so much sense! I experimented a lot during the last year and now I feel more dynamic, more at home in my body and more awake to the inside and outside world. And it changed my Alexander work: I work more often with hands-off, I verbally guide my pupils through movements and do them together with them, I integrate the pulls, spatial awareness... It gave my work a clearer structure, my pupils like it and are more engaged and we have more fun." Jutta, AT teacher
“In my training, I was repeatedly told ‘body lengthening and widening, find spaces and grounding. But I was often confused because I didn't know what I was doing and I didn't understand these directions for the body in enough detail. Through your book and working with gently pulling directions, I studied and practiced the detailed directions myself and now I feels so much has changed. My trainer also told me that my body has changed sooooo much.” Joy, AT trainee
