Lesson information
The Alexander Technique is a method of neuromuscular re-education. It works directly with cognition to teach new ways of organizing movement in the field of gravity. Lessons are structured around daily activities (walking, getting down to the floor, speaking, lifting something up etc) that are opportunities to uncover your coordination and your habits of organizing movement.
The lessons are tailored-made to you - your habits, your patterns, your questions, your blindspots. Each lesson is the product of an active collaboration between teacher and student - together we will create a shared language for your learning process to be engaging, sound and fun!
Your teacher, through senses-varied cues
(visual, tactile, verbal, kinaesthetic) will help you to gain knowledge and understanding of your own coordination and of our natural functioning as human beings. You will learn how to recognize and overcome patterns of tightening that impede and interfere with its effortlessly efficient design. The mundane settings of our explorations during the lessons will help you to bridge this learning into your own life. You will be on your way to learn a powerful, universal skill, applicable to all of life’s endeavours.

Testimonial
“Camille greets you as both a student and as a complete dynamic organism, not as a patient with a singular issue to 'cure'. I was at first interested in addressing a nagging neck issue, but with Camille's assistance I came to realize that how I was using my body was the source of the problems.”

Testimonial
“Camille's practical exercises, knowledge, and patience towards all my questions and doubts won me over. She helped me untangle bad movement habits and I still think of the cues she gave me. She changed my posture, literally and figuratively!”

The Brain—is wider than the Sky—
For—put them side by side—
The one the other will contain
With ease—and you—beside—
The Brain is deeper than the sea—
For—hold them—Blue to Blue—
The one the other will absorb—
As sponges—Buckets—do—
The Brain is just the weight of God—
For—Heft them—Pound for Pound—
And they will differ—if they do—
As Syllable from Sound—
Emily Dickinson, c. 1862
