Before becoming an Alexander Technique teacher, I spent many years in social work and university education — and experienced first-hand how stress, overload and tension can take a toll, both physically and emotionally. By my mid-forties, I was showing signs of premature ageing and feeling constantly under pressure. When I discovered the Alexander Technique, I found a way to change that pattern from the inside out. Learning to move with awareness and ease transformed how I felt and how I looked — I’m often told I seem younger at 55 than I did at 45. That change inspired me to retrain full-time for three years at the School of F.M. Alexander Studies, earning my Advanced Diploma in 2018. Now, teaching the Alexander Technique brings together everything I value — curiosity, compassion and a belief in people’s capacity to change. I love helping clients discover how simple shifts in awareness can bring lasting relief from stress and pain, and open the door to a calmer, more confident way of living.
