The course aims to provide an antomical understanding
that will:--

• improve body and mind connection
• assist in the inner work of releasing
• informs our hands-on
• assist visual and tactile observation
• give clear explanations of the Alexander Technique to use with groups and individuals
• add to our professional credibility and authority

Michael's work provides an opportunity to understand in a "living" way some of the basic anatomy that informs and clarifies our Alexander work .
His teaching has always included a good understanding of how skeletal anatomy reveals what the Alexander directions are and forms a grounding in connecting mind and body. Michael's teaching includes "living" anatomy i.e. the intention is not head knowledge but real hands-on, find-and-feel anatomy using visualisation, model making and other tools that give us an accurate sense of what we really are.

Emphasis will be on how we can use this understanding in teaching.

COST- £60.00
