Well, it’s been a long old haul hasn’t it?
Lately I have been doing some online teaching – one to one with music students and a group course for the Swarthmore Centre. I have been pleasantly surprised how well these have gone. I have therefore decided to start giving Zoom lessons to individuals. Please feel free to get in touch if you think you may be interested.
Please feel free to contact me by phone or email if you feel I can be of any assistance.
My best wishes to all of you in these trying times.
Important notice
Whilst normal lessons and courses aren’t happening at the moment, online courses are available and free of cost to Leeds residents. If you go to www.swarthmore.org.uk you can follow the link to enrol on an Alexander Technique taster session.

Now have a cup of tea or coffee and a nice piece of cake.
I qualified as an Alexander teacher in 1994 after 3 years training.
Since then I have been teaching the Technique to the general public in Leeds and Hebden Bridge.
For many years I have also taught the Technique to music students at Leeds College of Music.
