Where are you located?
I currently teach in both Oakland and Sebastopol.
In Oakland, lessons take place just above College Avenue, one block north of Rockridge BART Station.
In Sebastopol, I teach on Fredricks Road, just off Highway 116 (Gravenstein Highway).
Exact directions are shared after scheduling.
How many lessons do I need?
If you're new to the Alexander Technique and/or to me, begin with the Foundational Series — three lessons over three weeks. This is where the work begins. And we have a bit of extra time to ask questions and go slow.
From there, it depends. Most students work with me once or twice a week. I recommend committing to at least 10 to give the changes time to show up in your daily life.
Learning doesn't come from what you do occasionally but from what you do consistently.

Suggestions
What to wear
You will be most comfortable in moveable clothing. Pant are preferred.
A long sleeve t-shirt or light sweater is ideal. Cozy socks are always a good idea
What to read
Body Learning by Michael Gelb is a solid introduction to the principles and practices of the AT. A little framework can go a long way.
Dance and the Alexander Technique by my teacher Luc Vanier.
While the book is geared toward dancers, it is the only place you’ll find the vocabulary that is unique to our lineage.
