Alexander Technique lessons and back care wherever you are

What happens in a lesson?

My Alexander Technique Lessons are usually one-to-one and last around 45 minutes. I’m currently offering both online and in-person lessons.

If working online, you need to check the internet in the room you plan to use. I generally use Zoom.

Wear something comfortable; without shoes is preferable. Although you won't be doing any exercises, you will probably lie down for part of the Alexander Technique lesson.

You’ll need a yoga mat or rug, some head books, a dining chair, and enough space to walk around in.

AT doesn’t use manipulation

Lessons in person involve a mixture of talking and gentle touch. You're learning skills you can take away and use in everyday life. Online you won’t enjoy the benefits of touch, used by AT teachers to help explain their words.

On the plus side, you won’t be tempted to rely on the teacher. You may find you develop independence more quickly. Some people find it easier to ask questions when they’re online. Whether online or in person, during lessons you'll learn to 'use' yourself better by integrating mind and body for maximum ease and efficiency.

You’ll be expected to work on yourself between lessons. If you have questions about what you’re doing, you’re always welcome to send me an email.

Invest in your well-being

Just as when you learn a musical instrument, one lesson isn't going to get you very far.
It's best to have several lessons, fairly close together.
But you're not going to book something when you don't know what it is, so prices go as follows.

Your first (trial) lesson lasts around an hour but costs only £20 - half the price of a normal lesson.

If you’ve had lessons with me before, but not online, then you’re welcome to do a 45-minute trial lesson online for £20.

Contact Kate Minogue to book an appointment.

Thereafter an individual pay-as-you-go lesson is £40.
If you have five lessons, paying as you go, the sixth will be half-price.
If you book six lessons and pay upfront, the total is £200.

Payment the day before via bank transfer is preferred, especially for new students.
Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice may be charged at the full rate.

Workshops

Small online workshops have worked well. Or, when things have settled down, I’d be happy to come to you if you have a group of people and a venue. Contact me if interested.
