Alexander Work

In individual coaching sessions I teach you how to get rid of unnecessary tensions by applying the core principles of the Alexander Technique.
You will find relief from pain, for instance in the back, shoulders or neck, headaches etc.
With time you will learn to change unfavourable tension patterns. I will show you the practical principles that will enable you to effectively control tension in your daily life.
I also work with special activities if requested. Practical advice for sitting posture at the computer, eye use at the screen or working on improved coordination in artistic activities such as playing an instrument, using the voice or doing certain sports.
With regular application of the principles you can experience improved presence and more inner freedom in all your activities.
