I qualified as an Alexander Technique teacher in 2004 after completing a STAT approved three year training course.
I came to the Technique while suffering from a long term backache. I tried numerous avenues in an attempt to ‘fix’ my problem, but it was the Alexander Technique that really made the difference especially in the long term, with improvements in other areas such as better moods and improved self-confidence.
It was these additional benefits of the technique that meant I continued to take lessons even after my initial pain had been resolved and eventually led me to leave my job as a computer technician and embark on a training course in London.
