ALEXANDER TECHNIQUE TEACHER
Feeling stuck, stressed or struggling with pain?
You're not alone.
I'm here to help you move through life with more confidence, freedom, and a big smile!
The people I work with are:
Never underestimate how a tiny physical adjustment or change in thinking can make a world of difference.
Hi there! I'm Ben, an Alexander Technique teacher, musician and arts leader based in Dublin, Ireland.
Like many artists, I've had setbacks due to injuries.
It wasn’t until I started studying the Alexander Technique that I was able to fully recover and consistently be pain free, in addition to enjoying more ease and coordination when I performed normal, everyday activities.
The experience was so profound that I went on to complete a 3-year training course at the Alexander Technique Institute of Los Angeles. In over a decade of teaching, I never tired of watching my students discover how a tiny physical adjustment or change in thinking can transform everything.
“The Alexander Technique helped me release tension, increase mindfulness, and make the impossible possible.”
SIR PATRICK STEWART
Why Alexander Technique?
The Alexander Technique is a practical and individualized method for becoming more aware of and changing your movement habits.
Studying the Alexander Technique can help you move, breathe, and live with greater ease, efficiency, and awareness.
It’s a valuable tool for anyone seeking to improve their physical comfort, mental clarity, and overall quality of life.
It’s not a cure, exercise, or passive treatment, but rather a lifelong skill that emphasizes mindful, efficient, and balanced movement.
“It’s been invaluable in keeping me relaxed and healthy as a performer.”
