Welcome to Fine Balance
I am trained to help people - often those in considerable pain - to develop new postural habits.
The Alexander Technique is not, as many people think, about 'sitting up straight'.
It's a self-help descipline which aimes to help your body work the way it was designed to. Through a series of lessons you can learn a practical skill which you can apply everyday to avoid tension - and to feel freer and more confident in everything you do.
About Me
My first Alexander teachers was also my cello teacher, and she introduced me to the technique in 1996 when I was suffering from chronic back pain.
I had unsuccessfully tried many different kinds of treatment for my back and found in the Alexander technique the first possibility of really learning to help myself and take responsibility for my own well-being. This was an enormously liberating experience, and for me, it continues to be a life-enhancing discipline that informs all that I do.
I studied for three years at the Constructive Teaching Centre in Holland Park, West London and qualified in 2000. This long-established and highly regarded school was directed by Walter Carrington, who trained with FM Alexander in the 1930s and taught continually for well over 60 years, until his death in August 2005 at the age of 90.
My private teaching practice is in Chiswick, West London and I continue to teach on both the teacher-training course and post-graduate refresher courses at the Constructive Teaching Centre in Holland Park, where I also give private lessons.
As a swimming teacher, I am involved in teaching students on the training course to swim using principles of the Alexander technique.
